We took the Eumundi Markets Group Transfer Tour on Saturday 7/9/24. It was perfect. We were picked up from our accomodation at Noosa Lakes Resort and dropped off at the market. Three hours at the market was just the right amount of time to see everything. We were then picked up and taken back to our accomodation. The bus was clean and comfortable. The drver was polite and friendly. We avoided any hassles with parking around the market. We thought it was well worthwhile and would recommend it.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your review. Very much appreciated.

We had a great tour yesterday with Rob and we enjoyed some magnificent scenery and towns that we had not experienced on previous trips to the Sunshine Coast Rob was a very attentive and professional driver and tour guide who went out of his way to ensure all of the people on the tour were well catered for. We were on the food and wine tour as well and all four experiences were great. The cheese tasting, the wine and beer tasting the chocolate factory and last but not least the Christmas in July lunch at the stunning Secrets on the Lake where both the food and the venue were outstandinga highly recommended tour and thanks again Rob for making it an extra special occasion

Really enjoyable day tour to Ginger Factory and Montville with our driver and guide Geoff on Monday.

The day was well planned to have a great mixture of different things which all our family enjoyed including teenager.

Learnt lots about the area thanks to Geoff.
Highly recommend Coast to Hinterland, one of the best day tour companies I have been with. Thanks a bunch for an enjoyable day.

We thoroughly enjoyed this day trip.
Jeff the driver was full of knowledge which he passed on.
Ginger factory & macadamia tour were exceptional.
Lunch was great, variety of places visited and Jeff’s commentary was fabulous. Great lookouts, walks were adventurous. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking to relax and be driven around all day to see the sights of the Sunshine Coast. Mooloolabla, Montville, Maleny etc.,
HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY FOR A DAY TOUR!!!

Hello and thank you for a great day tour. Jan was fantastic. Friendly, knowledgeable and easygoing.
We were very fortunate to have a wonderful group on tour. We all gelled and had a fun day. The conversation wasn’t lacking and plenty of laughter.

Would recommend the day. Ginger factory tour was informative. The rainforest walk beautiful.

Unfortunately, the weather was horrid and no views, but that’s out of the control of everyone.
Just a shame you don’t offer another day, but understand it all comes down to costs.

The Barn was an excellent venue. Food scrumptious!
Best wishes.

We were especially impressed and appreciative of the exceptional service provided by Dave the Private Ginger Factory, Rainforest, views, Montville tour. Not only was he very friendly, professional & informative but he also went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and ease of mobility for my parents by placing down the step outside the vehicle at every stop, dropping us at the top of the hill in Montville and collect us at the bottom and parking as close as possible at each stop to reduce the amount of walking required.
Thank you for providing some wonderful memorable days.
