Tour Description
It doesn't get much better than this!
• Scenic Mountain Circuit Drive - We travel up the western side of the Mountain through the scenic Wolfdene Valley and return down the Eastern side. Don’t worry this is not a tour where you are in the bus all day!
• Historical Village - With over 20 buildings to explore as well as the historical displays, see how our early settlers lived and worked in the mountains and deep valleys of the district. From rough slab huts to horse drawn carriages to old fire engines, this village is an interesting stop. Entry fee is included.
• Wine Tasting. - Enjoy the offering from a number of local wineries and perhaps take a bottle home for later!
- Mount Tamborine Winery – suggest you try the smooth chocolate liquor.
- Heritage Estate Wines – have a shot of Moonshine!
- Either AU Winery or Cedar Creek Estate for wine appreciation and tasting session.
• Tamborine Village – Gallery Walk – A cluster of galleries and shops provides a wealth of diverse art and craft (paintings, sculpture, porcelain, jewelry, etc). Time to sample the local fudge or have lunch at one of the fine cafes and restaurants (own cost). Visit the Cheese Factory or sample a beer at the Micro Brewery. You are welcome to bring a picnic lunch.
• Curtis Falls – Guided Rainforest Walk – this walk (about 350m each way), gives you an impressive view of the falls and surrounding basalt rock face. The Joalah National Park is home to the rare but illusive Lyrebird.
• Mountain Lookouts – Visit both the Rotary Lookout for a spectacular view (West) as well as the Eagle Heights Lookout (East) for a photographer’s dream photo of the Gold Coast below.
• Glow Worm Caves (lunchtime option additional cost) – Guided Tour and Presenation. See the large colony of Glow Worms housed in the specially constructed caves that allow daytime viewing – entry additional $11 Adult / $5.50 Child
