Hinterland Cheese & Wine - Fully Flexible
Duration:
Operated By:
Treat yourself to a day of indulgence and discovery in the scenic Sunshine Coast Hinterland. This relaxed and delicious experience showcases the best of the region’s wine, craft beer, local produce, and breathtaking landscapes—perfect for foodies, wine lovers, and curious travellers alike.
We begin by winding our way up into the stunning Blackall Range, where your first stop is a boutique winery nestled in the hills. Enjoy a guided tasting of their handcrafted wines, perfectly paired with a platter of locally made cheeses, all while soaking in the panoramic views of the hinterland.
Our next visit is to a charming local cheese shop, where you can browse and purchase a selection of artisan cheeses—the same delicious varieties you sampled earlier at the winery—alongside a range of other regional delicacies and gourmet products.
From there, we make our way to a beautiful hinterland restaurant that celebrates farm-to-fork dining. This venue is also home to a small craft brewery, so you can enjoy a tasting paddle of freshly brewed beers, or opt for a wine, cider, or soft drink to accompany your seasonal two-course lunch, made with locally sourced ingredients.
To round out the day, we visit a boutique distillery where you’ll be treated to an interactive tasting of award-winning spirits—think aromatic gins, smooth vodkas, flavourful liqueurs, and a touch of local character in every pour.
As the day winds down, we return to the coast with full bellies, new favourites, and a deeper appreciation for the region’s incredible flavours.

Phoebe was brilliant to liase with prior to the tour and made sure I could still participate in the food portions of the tour even with my food allergies.
I would highly recommend Creative Tours for a memorable and enjoyable day on the beautiful Sunshine Coast

Jamie was very informative & we never felt rushed, even though we needed to keep to a schedule. My favourites were the winery (nice wine paired with some delicious cheese) & the brewery (great tastings paddles & farm to fork style sharing lunch) I also enjoyed the visit to Sunshine & Sons distillery. Staff at all stops were really friendly & professional & we learnt a lot about the local area & history of their businesses. Would have loved to explore the picturesque towns of Malany & Montville, but just not enough time on this trip. Highly recommend.



Thank you for a great day!

Thanks Jamie and to Creative tours.

The highlight was a mouthwatering lunch in Maleny, featuring locally sourced ingredients in beautifully presented dishes. Josh's insights and engaging commentary throughout the tour made it even more enjoyable.
In short, a delightful day with great food, friendly company, and stunning scenery. Special thanks to Josh for making it memorable!





We are visiting from Melbourne, when we are up here visiting we like to visit Breweries and Distilleries.
We were picked up by the lovely Deb. Who before taking off to pick up other people, she briefed us on the places we would be visiting. We haven’t been to 3 out of the four places before.
1st we visited Seabourne Gin Distillery.
Lovely smooth award winning Gins.
2nd was Pomona Distillery which we have visited prior. Here we had lunch and a drink part of the tour.
3rd was Hinterland Brewing Co with nice beers.
4th was Dingo creek Winery with its own resident Python, tucked up in the rafters. We enjoyed the Cheese Platter provided & My husband enjoyed the Reds. Set on lovely acreage.
We thoroughly enjoyed the Tour and the Day.
Accompanied by other lovely people.
Thanks to Deb & Creative Tours.


We visited Seabourne Distillery, Pomona Distilling for a great lunch and drinks, Noosa Hinterland Brewing Co & Copperhead Brewery. We could not fault anything, Josh went above and beyond to accommodate us and we had the best day out. I highly recommend for a staff party or weekend activity!



not go much on pizza (bit too spicy)
Lovely cheeses

Creative Tours has also just picked up (for two years running) the award for Experiences (Tourism) - Small Business in the 2023 Sunshine Coast Business Awards. So well deserved in every way - and Congratulations again!

















Deb, the host was informative and fun to be with.
The venues we attended had excellent beverages and extremely tasty foods.
The scenery was worth the drive.
The other guests were wonderful to chat with, making the day even better.
I definitely recommend Creative Tours.
We will book again and take friends and family knowing how much fun we are going to have.
Thanks guys!





would highly recommend this trip



Josh really knows what he's doing & tailored a tour just for us (11 blokes/bucks party). He always responded quickly to emails/calls & payment was a breeze. Everyone in my group loved the tour as presented by Zoe. Nothing was too much trouble, her beer knowledge was remarkable and we enjoyed her humour. All commented on the value and convenience of the service - it was a big hit! I highly recommend The Coastal Hops Tour and Creative Tours and Events.
