Tamborine Mountain Winery & Distillery Tour – Private Experience from Brisbane
Escape Brisbane for the day and journey into the lush Gold Coast Hinterland, where rolling green valleys, boutique wineries, and artisanal distilleries await. Our Tamborine Mountain wine and distillery tour is the perfect way to sip, savour, and explore one of South East Queensland’s most scenic regions.
This private experience takes you beyond the city, through the rainforest-clad hills of Tamborine Mountain. Along the way, enjoy exclusive tastings, stunning views, and an indulgent lunch showcasing fresh, local flavours. With the flexibility of a private tour, you’ll have the space and comfort to enjoy the day at your own pace, guided by locals who know the region inside-out.
Your Itinerary
Stop 1: Boutique Winery & Cheese Platter
Begin your day with a visit to one of Tamborine Mountain’s boutique wineries. Take in the valley views as you sip your way through a guided tasting of regional wines, paired with a platter of locally made cheeses. It’s the perfect introduction to the mountain’s vibrant food and wine scene.
Stop 2: Scenic Lunch with a View
Next, settle into a local restaurant for a relaxed two-course lunch. With dishes crafted from seasonal Australian produce and paired with a glass of wine, beer, or soft drink, this is dining with a view—looking out across the hinterland valleys that stretch all the way to the coast.
Stop 3: Distillery Tour & Guided Spirits Tasting
In the afternoon, we’ll visit a boutique distillery to meet the passionate makers behind some of Queensland’s most awarded small-batch spirits. Enjoy a guided tasting of handcrafted gin, vodka, and rum, and learn about the craft of distilling in this picturesque setting.
Return to Brisbane
After a full day of flavours, scenery, and relaxation, we’ll return you to Brisbane with plenty of memories (and maybe a bottle or two to take home).

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
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!
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.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.
