Tamborine Mountain Wine Tasting Tour from the Gold Coast or Brisbane

What to expect on the day

A local guide drives you up the mountain in an air-conditioned minivan. You visit two boutique wineries to taste a range of wines, from crisp whites to rich reds, and stop at a local distillery that makes small-batch spirits with native Australian ingredients. There is also free time for lunch at one of the many cafes along Gallery Walk, the mountain’s main street of shops and galleries.

Prices and extra costs

• Included: Transport by air-conditioned minivan, a local guide, wine tasting, liqueur tasting and bottled water.
• Not included: Lunch, which you buy yourself at a cafe on Gallery Walk.

What to bring

• Money for lunch and any bottles you want to buy.
• Photo ID showing you are 18 or older.
• A light jacket, as the mountain is cooler than the coast.

Tips for a better day

• Pickup: Pickup is from selected hotels, so check your hotel when you book.
• Pace yourself: Tastings add up over the day, so drink plenty of water.
• Shopping: Leave room in your bag if you plan to buy wine or spirits at the cellar doors.

Who it’s best for

Best for: Couples and friends who enjoy wine and want a relaxed day in the hinterland.
