We did the Scenic Food and Wine tour today with our guide Jan and a wonderful family from Norway. What a day! Jan was amazing, fun, and knowledgeable. Do this tour everyone if you have a day free. The wine, chocolate, and cheese tasting were great. the meal and hospitality at Secrets on the Lake were perfect, and Jan made sure we had time to tour the townships, spend time viewing beautiful scenery and we had the chance encounter paragliding launch. Top tour and guide
Response from the owner: And what a perfect time to visit the Sunshine Coast Andrea to explore our Hinterland region thank you for the review

We would have liked to have fine weather for the Culinary tour experience of the Hinterland. The tastings were good and the lunch stop was very scenic. Our bus driver, Lucas, was very helpful and did his best to accommodate the dreadful weather. No lookout photos, just whiteout. I'm sure that in good weather, this trip would be well worth the time as it is a beautiful part of the Sunshine Coast and a great day out.
Response from the owner: Thank you Bruce, one thing we can't control is the weather on the day however the Hinterland has its own climate to some degree. Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review.

We had a great recent experience with Coast to Hinterland tours, travelling from Mooloolaba to the Eumundi markets. Nothing was too much trouble, we travelled with our 6 month old baby and the team was happy to arrange a car seat for us, pick up was punctual on the day and our bus driver Jan was so lovely and informative about the area, 10/10 would recommend.

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 have just done the Sunshine Coast Private Wine tour with Coast to Hinterland, to say we had a sensational day is an understatement. We had an absolute ball, what a great day. Being a Monday quite a few of the places on the itinerary weren’t open, so Mark rehashed our itinerary with other venues, we stopped at the Sunshine and sons Gin distillery where Ash and Michael ran us through the making of and then the drinking of the gins, it was fabulous and beautiful Gin. After many laughs it was time to head back to the bus with our tour leader Jan, she was wonderful, nothing was too much trouble, she was funny, lighthearted and incredibly friendly. We visited the Barrel winery and lunch at the Montville Bar and Grill, which has a lovely alfresco eatery. Overall I would not hesitate to recommend this tour but also this company, they were wonderful to deal with.

We filled the bus with a party of 20 for my 40th.
We had Josie as our guide & she was absolutely fantastic. She had the rare trifecta of being both easy going & funny but also professional.
The day was really well executed with a great mix of different activities & locations.
My group had a ball on our tour! I would go again in a heartbeat.
