About this tour
An 8-hour guided day trip combining a walkway through Tamborine Mountain's rainforest canopy with afternoon self-guided exploration. You'll start with the Skywalk — a series of elevated platforms and bridges winding through the treetops — then use the hop-on-hop-off bus service to visit waterfalls, viewpoints, distilleries and galleries at your own pace. Door-to-door transport from Brisbane or Gold Coast hotels included; groups need a minimum of 10 people.

What to expect
You'll be picked up from your Brisbane or Gold Coast hotel in a modern minibus and driven to Tamborine Mountain. The morning focuses on the Rainforest Skywalk, where you walk along elevated platforms and bridges threading through the canopy, offering views down into the forest layers below. After the walkway, the afternoon shifts to self-guided exploration: the hop-on-hop-off bus lets you hop down at points of interest — cascading waterfalls, scenic overlooks, distillery tasting rooms, and the shopping and cafe precinct on Gallery Walk — and hop back on when you're ready. You'll return to your hotel by end of day. Lunch is not included; St Bernards Hotel or Gallery Walk cafes are nearby options.

Good to know
This suits anyone wanting a mix of structured activity and flexible sightseeing without the commitment of a fully guided itinerary. It works well for families (prams, infant seats and small children welcomed; minimum age 18 for the booking, though infants can attend), and suits all fitness levels. Book lunch separately — the tour doesn't include it. Minimum group size is 10 people, so confirm your party meets this before booking. Dress smart casual. If you have dietary needs, flag these at booking. The afternoon hop-on-hop-off pace depends on crowd levels and your interests; peak times may mean busier stops.
