Top Noosa & Sunshine Coast Rail Tours

Get away from the rowdy crowds on the Sunshine Coast and make some new feathered friends in the heart of Queensland with this unique hinterland experience. Enjoy interactive encounters with native and exotic birds in the walk-through aviaries at Maleny Botanic Gardens. Meet cockatoos, macaws and more and get one-of-a-kind photo opportunities with these friendly birds – on your hand, on your head, and against the backdrop of the scenic Glass House Mountains.

Go kayaking with dolphins and 4-wheeling on the beach during a half-day tour on the Sunshine Coast, just north of Brisbane. Visit a National Park location that is only accessible by 4WD vehicle, and kayak around Double Island Point looking for dolphins, migrating whales, turtles, rays and more. Includes kayak equipment and instruction, light refreshments, and transportation by 4WD and ferry.

See whales in their natural habitat as you embark on a whale-watching tour out to Noosa heads. Join a small group, board your vessel, and set out in search of humpback whales. These gentle giants make their way to the area in the winter months and put on a show for spectators, breaching the waters, tail slapping, and swimming with their calves.

Go shopping at Eumundi market, considered one of Australia’s premier markets for artisan crafts. Round-trip transfers from your accommodation in Mooloolaba, Maroochydore, Coolum, or Noosa make it easy to visit this market for three hours on a Wednesday or Saturday morning during your vacation on the Sunshine Coast.

The Ginger Factory is one of the Sunshine Coast’s most unique family attractions and this super pass offers great value and all-areas access. Enjoy unlimited rides on the Overboard boat and Moreton the Ginger train, walk along the Gruffalo Trail for an interactive rain forest experience, play on the Bee-trice the Jumping Castle, and much more.
