What to expect

Begin your day with a visit to Coombabah Lakeland Conservation Park, where kangaroos and koalas roam freely. Continue to The Spit for a chance to spot dolphins and, in season, migrating whales. Along the way, your guide will share insights into the Yugambeh people’s culture and connection to the land.

Next, head to SkyPoint Observation Deck, located atop Australia’s tallest building, to enjoy a relaxing lunch with stunning 360° views over the Gold Coast.

In the afternoon, explore Surfers Paradise at your own pace. You may choose to join optional activities like jet boating or the Aquaduck, shop along Cavill Mall, or simply unwind on the beach.

The day ends with a scenic drive through Numinbah Valley to Springbrook National Park. There, walk among ancient trees and cascading waterfalls in the World Heritage-listed Gondwana rainforest before returning to Brisbane.

Fantastic full day tour of the the Gold Coast. We started at the koala and kangaroo conservation area where we saw lots of animals in there own environment. Traveling next to the split then surfers paradise, lunch at the sky point with unbelievable views over the area then back to the natural cave waterfall The whole trip was made even better by our driver mark who’s knowledge of everything Australia was second to none he is clearly very passionate about his job and loves giving information to his guests. Thank you mark for making our day trip so special you are credit to your job and company

Great experience. The tour was well planned and fully packed. The two guides are professional and knowledgeable and kept sharing things on the journey, making the trips enjoyable. They also well prepared and even got us umbrellas when it started to rain. Super kids-friendly. My 7 year old son enjoyed the tour very much.
