Highlights
- Gallery Walk - Here you get to browse all the shops, galleries, food & beverage plus distilleries and wineries.
- Curtis Falls - If you are over the shops and you simply love nature, beautiful trees and the sounds of birds… Take a walk along a path through a shaded enclave of stunning rainforest trees that lead to a beautiful waterfall. This 1km round trip walk will take you around 30 mins including time at the falls and to take photos. If you love to walk, it’s a 1km walk for Gallery Walk or I can drive you to the car park to begin your trek.
- Tamborine Rainforest Skywalk - An exciting Eco-Adventure offering guests a unique way to explore the beautiful rainforest canopies. Set in a magical 30 acres of privately owned rainforest beside the crystal clear rock-pools of Cedar Creek on Mt Tamborine. The entire walk totals 1.5 kms and is a combination of forest floor trails, 300 metres of high-tech steel bridges through the highest points of the upper canopy, and a 40 metre cantilever bridge that soars a breathtaking 30 metres above the creek and rainforest below.

Fab chilled day out - Trevor was an excellent host. He was very knowledgeable, kind and considerate to all on the tour. The highlights are the rainforest bridge walk and the glow worm caves are a must!
He knew all areas very well and was very informative with all questions asked. A thoroughly thorough enjoyable day!

Relaxing - We really enjoyed our day with Trevor. He was attentive to the things we wanted to see. Giving us ample time to explore. We saw a wallaby in the wild as well as a kookaburra. Don’t pass up getting to see the glow worms. They were really fascinating, something you might never get the chance to see again. Trevor took us to a lunch spot off the beaten path with a little bit for everyone to enjoy. A beautiful and relaxing day!

Great experience, Trevor was a a terrific guide - Trevor was very accomodating. The group was small and he catered accordingly. Explained where we were headed. Booked us in ahead so we remained on time but also had time to sightsee. Enjoyed tambourine mountain. So people were so friendly and accommodating. I think we have been to a friendlier township. Would definitely recommend.

A great day at the Gold Coast and Tamborine Mountain - On a short hike we watched Cedar Falls. There are some steep steps but only for a couple of minutes.
The glowworms were fantastic. Though not included, Trevor, the guide, booked online for us to get on a 30min tour. It was not allowed to take pictures, but all explanations and experiencing the small lights in the dark was great.
On the way south we stopped in Surfers Paradise, for some time and were at a lookout over two long beaches.
Trevor even let me bring my bags to drop me off at train station after the tour.

Tamborine Trip - I really enjoyed the variety of experiences on offer, especially the gallery walk (shops), the water fall and glow worms (though it was a bit cool, you need to pack a jacket!).
Trevor was a good host.
The bus was modern and comfortable too.

Mum and daughter day out made special - Having a tour guide definitely made this day easy. We were able to pack so much in without feeling like it was rushed.
We got to have a broad range of experiences. Mum was able to enjoy a comfortable rainforest walk and scenic view of the falls, despite her moderate health. We both loved the opportunity to eat and shop at Tamborine Mountain itself. Then to end at the beach, made it a perfect day out for the both of us.
Thanks Trev for adjusting to meet our needs throughout the day. When we are back this way again, we will definitely look to do another of your tours!
