BRITISH AND IRISH LIONS TOUR | AUSTRALIA 2025

GOLD COAST HINTERLAND AND TAMBORINE MOUNTAIN

FULL TOUR EXCURSION

INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR EXCURSION

Exclusively for full tour clients, we would be thrilled if you would join us on this epic adventure.

This is a wonderful way to explore nature and enjoy a great day experiencing Australian culture, wildlife and scenery on a full day excursion.

After a picturesque drive through the lush countryside, you will arrive at your first stop, the Rainforest Skywalk and Eco Discovery Centre. Upon arrival you will have free time to explore the centre and gallery and choose from a variety of walks through the luscious rainforest. Your adventure begins on a spectacular elevated walkway through the beautiful middle and upper canopies of the rainforest. It descends gradually to the lower canopy and follows points of interest including rock pools and waterfalls, a butterfly lookout and local history enclosure. 

There will be sheltered rest areas along the way until reaching the amazing Cantilever, a 40-metre-long span soaring 30 metres above the valley, with spectacular views over the creek and the rainforest canopies below. The walk returns along the rainforest floor to the Centre.  

It’s then on to The Gallery Walk at Eagle Heights – a famous artistic centre that boasts a variety of craft shops and galleries for those precious gifts, as well as numerous cafes and food stalls where you can purchase a tasty homemade treat or refreshments. 

Next up is a visit to St. Bernard’s, one of the most popular and historic pubs in the area. Boasting an absolutely spectacular view over the valley, take in the beautiful sights of the rainforest before being treated to lunch at the pub – what’s not to like!. This is truly an authentic Aussie pub, full of old-world charm and hospitality, where diners have the opportunity to relax and enjoy one another’s company in a casual, laid-back atmosphere.

Following lunch your coach will then make its way to a winery for a wine tasting. Included in your tour is the amazing scenery of Tamborine Mountain. This area is home to seven National Parks, totalling over 900 acres. Marvel at the Macrozamia Palms towering overhead and the verdant green valley’s unfolding before you, as you wind your way through a landscape dotted with farms and quaint tea houses. Following a full day of remarkable scenery and memorable experiences, sit back and relax in the comfort of your coach as you make your return to your Gold Coast Hotel.

On your existing itinerary, this date is currently shown as a free day.
