Delicious wines and cheese, a lovely lunch at the brewery, and some of the best gin we have found throughout all our travels…
Thank you for an excellent tour - it was the perfect end to our stay in the Subshine Coast. Would highly recommend!
A special thank you to Heidi, who was a wonderful host. She was friendly, organised, knowledgeable and made the whole day so enjoyable. We would also like to mention Kylie, who went out of her way to introduce herself to us at our final stop. That personal touch really stood out and showed how much they value their guests.
The wineries, cheese, gin and stunning hinterland scenery made for a perfect day. We highly recommend Creative Tours to anyone looking for a relaxed, well organised and enjoyable experience. We will definitely be booking with them again.
The venues themselves were excellent—beautiful settings, generous tastings, and a wonderful mix of wine, craft beer, and spirits that truly showcased the Sunshine Coast. We never felt rushed and were able to fully enjoy each stop.
While the booking error was disappointing, the quality of our tour guide, Jaime completely made up for it and more. His dedication and care are exactly what great hospitality looks like. I’d absolutely recommend this tour—and ask for Jaime!. The guide alone makes it worth it.
Looking forward to booking more tours in the future and will be recommending to all my friends!
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
Enjoyable Day Out Recently enjoyed the Hinterland wine, cheese, brewery lunch & gin/rum tasting day trip with Jamie. Great weather day so views were amazing. 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.
Great alcohol tastings! The day was full of variety & interesting experiences. Plentiful tastings of wine, beer, gin & rum. Very comfortable vehicle with good commentary by Jamie. Great cheese & nibbles at Flametree. Delicious lunch at Brouhaha. Great day out for 7 of us to celebrate a 65th birthday.Thank you for a great day!
Best tour ever What a great day had. Jamie was the best tour guide. He provided a great day had by all. Well worth the money. The beer was fantastic. I would book this again when back on the Sunshine Coast.Thanks Jamie and to Creative tours.
Hinderland experience Sunshine Coast Amazing tour, from Mooloolaba, got collected from where we were staying, a full day trip inc chocolate tasting as well as wine and cheese. Lunch at the Secrets Lake, went to Montville and passed through lots of other towns. 100 percent well worth going on this tour.Philippa & Roger Strong

Throughly recommended, you will enjoy A totally enjoyable experience. Great visits to winery, brewery and distillery, and a wonderful lunch. Tour guide Deb was excellent. We all had a terrific time and we are already planning to do this again.
A Day of Delightful Discoveries Recently enjoyed the Sunshine Coast Food Trail with Lunch in, and it was a fantastic experience. Our guide, Josh, was incredible—knowledgeable and friendly, he added a special touch to the day.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!
Highly Recommend From first point of contact to drop off at the end of the day Creative Tours were brilliant. Fast and friendly responses, and lot's of choice when organising. We had to postpone a few days prior to our booking date as half the team were unwell, and this was no problem. We rescheduled with ease and had a great day with Craig our host. Lots of laughs along the way, a great day out had by all.
VIP experience This was our first time wine tasting and our guide, Deb, as well as the staff at the locations we visited were so friendly and informative. It felt like a day out with friends. So many locations with different inclusions such as wine tasting, beer tasting, vodka/gin/rum tasting, 2 course lunch provided, cheese platters, and more! All the food was incredible and being picked up and dropped off right at the front door of our accommodation ensured a carefree day where all we had to think about was enjoying ourselves. I'd love to see what other tours are available, we had a truly fantastic time.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.
The perfect end of year staff party! We chose the Noosa Hinterland Drinks Tour for our team Christmas Party (Clarity Accounting Solutions) and absolutely loved it! Lots of fun and Deb was a great host. Highly recommended!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!
Friendly and Enoyable Very friendly and knowledgeable driver/tour guide. Nothing seemed to bother him, got to the breweries easily. He ensured everyone had their requests fulfilled and beers enjoyed. I did the Sunshine Coast Craft Beer tour and happily recommend this tour. I am now planning to undertake the Noosa Brewery and Distillery Trail tour with Creative Tours.
Great tour Lovely tour - very good tour operator - lovely food, but didnot 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!
Cheers for Beers Had a great day thanks to Jeremy he was super friendly and his knowledge of brewing was amazing I enjoyed the four Breweries we visited and tasted some good beers
Great host, great local produce, great locations, great tour We had a fantastic time on our Noosa Hinterland Drinks tour. Deb was an excellent host and every location was a unique experience. The tour definitely exceeded our expectations and we’ll be excited to enjoy our various purchases when we get home. Highly recommend Creative Tours for those visiting the Sunshine Coast.
Noosa Hinterland exploring We had a great day- comfortable vehicle, very friendly tour leader (thanks Deb!!) and excellent company. The venues we went to were interesting and the business owners were very willing to share their knowledge with us and provided very generous tastings. It was a lovely exploration of the area beyond the beaches and shops of Noosa.
Definitely do it again We loved the great range off different distilleries and massive range off flavours throughout the hinterland we had great company on the tour and some good laughs.
Perfect way to enjoy beer, wine and gin! Went and visited some great local distilleries and breweries on this tour. Most of these places we wouldn’t have been able to discover on our own. The day was well run and Deb was a great host. Look forward to going on another Creative Tour in the future.
Interesting tour with a great guide and good company! My partner and I went on this tour as part of our holiday in Noosa. We met Deb at a location that was near Hastings Street with several other central pick-up options available. The bus was clean, well kept and maintained. Deb was very lovely and told some interested stories about the area and the local residents throughout the day. The group of people we toured with were absolutely lovely and is always interesting coming together with people from all walks of life, wether that be grain farmers, young Brisbanites or the lovely couple from the USA. This tour was as much about bringing different cultures together as it was the alcohol. Though I am not a huge drinker myself, I did try most things and there were non alcoholic options available if needed (though with Deb as the designated driver feel free to indulge!). The locations we visited were varied and you can tell that at each location everyone was very passionate and knowledgeable about their products and keen to share. The cheeseboard was delicious and the day ended back at our pick up location with a complimentary wine glass from the last stop of the day. This would suit couples of any age, or those wanting to go solo with a friendly group of people! Will definitely consider other creative tours in the future when visiting the Sunshine Coast again!
Fantastic and Unique Hinterland Experience! My husband and I were visiting from the states and had the most lovely experience! Every stop was beautiful, unique, and had amazing drinks. Our guide, Deb, was super and we’d highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting lovely Hinterland views and tasty gin/beer/wine! If we ever have the opportunity to visit this part of Australia again we will definitely be back!
Fantastic bespoke craft beer tour and Aqua Duck cruise The team were so good to deal with, nothing was a hassle & it ended up being a highlight of our trip
Beer tasting. 4 long term good friends who love a variety of beer. Together with a couple on the bus, we visited 4 breweries and had a nice lunch included, nice tasty beer and enjoyable day.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!
Hinterland brewery and wine tour Such a wonderful day. The food and drinks were amazing and the service throughout was perfect. Thank you for making our day great.
A magnificient Experience The whole tour from when we were picked up to drop off was spectacular. Our host Deb was friendly, knowledgeable and was able to articulate all of the wonderful places in the sunshine coast hinterland. We thoroughly enjoyed the winery and brewery tour and the time spent on the bus being shown some beautiful scenery. It was an excellent tour
excellent daytrip Debs was a brilliant guide , wine and beer tasting were excellent . The views around Maleny were fantastic .would highly recommend this trip
Great day out together. We had a bunch of fun and laughter for a girls day out as a 75th birthday celebration - coffee first with live music who sang Happy Birthday, then a treasure hunt at the Sculpture Gardens Tanawha - followed by lunch and mini golf. Fabulous day out in a brand new van - felt like rock stars being chauffeured around by beautiful Deb. So helpful and courteous looking after a mob of mature matrons.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.
A journey Adam was a fantastic tour guide and with the quality venues; we were able to come together as a group, relax and get rigorous discussion flowing. Our group is incredibly grateful.
AWESOME DAY OUT We had my Niece's Hen's Party last Sunday. Deb from Creative Tours and Events was amazing. The $200 cost for each person to attend was so worth it. Great Wine, Beer, Cheese Board and Lunch included, pick up and drop off. Such a perfect day out for any occasion. So good!
