Sunshine Coast Explorer

Take in all the highlights of the Sunshine Coast on this ultimate explorer tour including the Buderim Ginger Factory, Eumundi Markets, Noosa and much more. Your tour begins as you board a coach and make your way to the famous Buderim Ginger Factory. Wander around the ginger shop offering a large selection of ginger products including Buderim Ginger Beer or visit the ginger cafe for a coffee and snack (at own expense). If ginger doesn’t spark your interest, you can also head across the road to Nutworks for free tastings of Macadamia and chocolate. Yum! Next stop is Australia’s premier artisan market Eumundi Markets, where you will have approximately 90 minutes of free time to explore. With its diverse and amazing range of art, craft, products, entertainment and local produce you are bound to find something different, something handmade and something special. Following the markets visit the coastal township of Noosa where you’ll board the Noosa River ferry and head down the Noosa River into the heart of the town. Sit back and relax as your friendly captain provides commentary on the history, development and culture of this region. After the ferry ride enjoy some free time to explore Hastings Street, a popular spot with a great atmosphere and a huge range of alfresco cafes, restaurants and boutiques lining the street. And on the other side of the street? Just some of the most spectacular beaches the region has to offer. Enjoy!
