The attractions of the trip are all excellent, but we found the pace in those attractions are all relaxing. We're the only group that need to "hurry up" in the all four attractions.
Maybe it would be better to planned the same itinerary as a two day trip.
And please play some music or radio, or allow light and dry snacks (like candy, oat bar, nuts) in the car. Or the way of 150 kilometers ×2 would be boring, everyone could do was sleeping.
the day was planned out really well, our guide was kind and educated, the views were pretty also :))
Our guide, Pete, was easy to talk to, funny, and knowledgeable. He was able to show us sights that could have been easily missed without a guide.
The walks through the rainforest were not particularly strenuous - I don’t think any one walk was more than a couple km and the pace was very relaxed. However, there were some stairs, inclines, etc, to be mindful of.
Overall, if you’re staying around Brisbane and are looking for a day trip, I’d highly consider this one!
I enjoyed seeing this beautiful country ❤️ and I would recommend 👌 for families.
The wildlife was outstanding: we saw wild Koalas, Kangaroos, Whales, Dolphins, Turtles, Kookaburra, Galahs, plus lots of lizards!
The tour guide James was great - he's very knowledgeable, answering any questions I had and he really wanted everyone to have a good time!
Guide was knowledgeable and we never felt rushed. Interesting stops. Lots to see and do.
Highly recommend this company . Plenty of comfort stops and Sean was always asking how things were going.
Loved looking for animals to show us
Gave us plenty to see
James Doesn’t know much about Ohio 😂 but very keen on talking about Texas
If you don’t like to walk not the tour for you . 🦿🦿
When you go on top of the mountain with all the shops there is an authentic French bakery
Taste just like being back in Paris recommended
Excellent tour
Being an introvert, the only headache for being in a day tour solo is always that the guide chatted with each of us on the bus openly. I understand that it’s quite an Aussie & American culture, but I just found a bit embarrassed to talk about myself in front of those folks not even acquaintances perhaps just a problem of mine. :). Don’t get me wrong at this point - the guide was absolutely nice and caring.
Overall I don't think there is a great deal to see on this trip if you don' like shops and markets.
The Byron bay tour is has much more to see and do
Eumundi markets were a real wash out on this day . It is a large market with many stalls but many of them are quite similar.
Noossa head was worth the visit and is a smaller more upmarket version of Byron bay I think
