Indulge in a delightful coffee and ginger scone at The Ginger Factory before soaking in the breathtaking panoramic vistas atop Mt Tinbeerwah. Delight in a gourmet lunch at a cozy café in Cooroy, with ample time to explore the charming town. Traverse through Eumundi, immersing yourself in its vibrant atmosphere, including the iconic Eumundi Markets (available on Wednesdays and Saturdays).
Enjoy the convenience of door-to-door service in our luxury vehicle, equipped with reclining seats, individual USB ports, and climate control. Throughout your Noosa Country Tour, our experienced local guide will enrich your experience with insightful commentary. Let us unveil the best of Noosa’s western treasures in this all-inclusive adventure.
- You will be picked up between 8-9am before a country drive to the The Ginger Factory where you will enjoy a delicious ginger scone with a coffee/cake or equivalent drink. Here you will have enough time to explore this charming place, and do one of the experiences on offer there, such as the ginger factory tour, live bee show, ride the ginger train, or ride on the overboard boat ride. There is also a nut shop and coffee roaster across the road that you can explore.
- We then go on a specially selected country drive to Eumundi through picturesque landscapes. In Eumundi you will have time to explore this historic little town, including the Eumundi Markets, Australia’s largest artisan market on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
- Next, we make our way through the Eumundi Range to Cooroy for lunch and a drink at a boutique cafe that supports local growers. Here you will also have free time to explore Noosa’s most westerly village, that could include the art exhibits at the Cooroy Butter Factory Arts Centre (open Tues – Sun), a historical walk through the town, or a play at the Hinterland Adventure Playground.
- You will then be taken on a leisurely 1.5km guided walk around the beautiful Noosa Botanic Gardens nestled alongside Lake McDonald. This walk is relatively flat with a few gradual inclines. This guided walk is optional and guests who are not comfortable participating in the walk, are welcome to relax in the gardens or by the lake instead.
- Our last stop on this amazing tour is at Mt Tinbeerwah where you will be treated to some of the best panoramic views of Noosa and the Sunshine Coast. This requires a 500m walk up a gradual incline to the summit. An alternative is an easy 125m walk to a lookout with amazing views, for those not comfortable participating in the summit walk.
- A short final drive will have you back to your accommodation no later than approximately 5pm, in time for sunset and dinner.

“Had an awesome day, my 8 year old really enjoyed it. Great experience for families. Worth every penny and great lunch spot.”
“We were a family with six adults and four children. Joel was an excellent guide and managed the trip in a flexible way which kept the children and the adults engaged. He tailored each site visit to the needs and interests of the group. The sights were interesting and the lunch at the Mapleton Public House outstanding. Everything was included and the children also voted him 5 stars. In all it was a great day and Joel a charming host who lived up to his award winning reputation.”
