The Experience

You start from your Gold Coast accommodation and travel by private air-conditioned vehicle to Mt Tamborine, where the day centers on guided tastings at family-run wineries. At each stop, you'll taste between 6 and 10 wine varieties with someone who knows the vineyard—either your guide or a winemaker—and you'll get a behind-the-scenes look at how the wines are made. The small group size means there's no rush; if a particular winery or wine captures your interest, you can spend more time there.

Lunch is a two-course meal prepared by an award-winning chef at one of the wineries, paired with the day's tastings. You'll also visit Tamborine National Park to take in views of the escarpment and the Gold Coast skyline, then stop at Gallery Walk—a collection of 75 specialty shops—where you can taste gourmet fudge and browse antiques, chocolates and souvenirs. The Mt Tamborine Distillery rounds out the tasting experience before you head back to your hotel.

The tour runs 8 hours total and includes transport, all guided tastings, the cheese platter, lunch, and fudge tasting. You'll need to let the operator know about any dietary requirements when you book, and a minimum of two people per booking applies. Dress code is smart casual, and the tour suits all fitness levels.
