“My family and I had an amazing time on this tour with a group of 11. Joel was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive, ensuring we had a great experience. The bus was comfortable, and the scenic drive through the Glasshouse Mountains was beautiful. The short nature walk was easy and enjoyable. Brunch was fantastic, offering a choice of meal and drink—I went for the big breakfast and an iced mocha. The highlight of the day was our visit to Australia Zoo. If you haven’t been before, I highly recommend booking a separate trip with Joel just to the Zoo for more time to explore. A big thank you to Joel for making the day so memorable!”
“Fantastic tour to Glasshouse Mountains then the Australia Zoo. Great tour guide so knowledgeable, very interesting, comfortable vehicle . Lunch stop was delicious. Highly recommend.”
“I recently attended Joel’s Journeys’ Glass House Mountains and Australia Zoo combo tour, and I must say, it was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Despite the rain, Joel ensured that the tour was well-paced and completely worth the price. Joel himself is an incredible tour guide, going above and beyond to make sure everyone felt comfortable and got the most out of the experience. Even with the weather, we got to see so much, including breathtaking views and fascinating insights that we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. One highlight was the spot Joel found for lunch—it was perfect. Not only was the food great with plenty of options, but the view was absolutely spectacular. It really added to the whole experience. After lunch, we headed to Australia Zoo, where Joel dropped us off just in time for the Wildlife Warriors show. We had over three hours to explore the zoo and still had plenty of time to see all the other exhibits. In summary, if you’re considering booking this tour, don’t hesitate. Joel is an amazing guide who knows how to put on a top-notch tour. You’re guaranteed to have a fantastic time, rain or shine. Highly recommended!”
