Experience Noosa’s hidden gems on our Secrets of Noosa Private Tour where you’ll experience corners of Noosa that you never knew existed, including art, nature, food, drink, chocolate, history, culture, panoramic views and a ferry ride on the Noosa River.

ITINERARY

• Your day will begin with a visit to Noosa’s very own organic marketplace specialising in organic food and wellness. Here you will have time explore this wonderful location and grab a coffee from the in-house coffee roasters if you choose.
• We’ll then go and see one of the hidden lakes of the Noosa Everglades system with beautiful views over the lake and an array of birdlife. 
• After a very short drive we will explore some interesting features of the creek that winds its way through Noosaville and Noosa Heads, including a walk over Noosa’s most historical footbridge.
• Next we head to a lookout with panoramic views of this paradise we call Noosa, overlooking Noosa’s villages, beaches, river, and hinterland.
• As it’s time for lunch, we will take you to a restaurant in Sunshine Beach with some of the best ocean views on the coast. Your lunch and drink are included. Time permitting, you may have a little time to explore this village too.
• Next we will reveal Noosaville’s hidden hub for you to explore. This hub has something for everyone from Noosa’s own chocolate factory to Noosa’s own breweries, gin distillery and everything else in between, including iconic surf stores, photographer’s gallery, famous antique store and more. 
• Next stop is Tewantin where you will be guided through Noosa’s historical centre along the river towards the Noosa Marina where we admire an art exhibit at the Noosa Regional Gallery on the way.
• Explore the shops and boats and bridge at Noosa Marina before boarding the Noosa Ferry.
• Once you have boarded the Noosa River Ferry, you will experience the last stretch of this wonderful day on the Noosa River as you journey along the river from Tewantin back to Noosa Heads. The ferry fare is included.
• Upon arriving at the Sofitel stop at Noosa Heads on the ferry, we will pick you up in the bus and drop you back to your accommodation by approximately 4:30pm, unless of course you would rather walk, if your accommodation is close by.
