Queensland is home to many beautiful natural vistas and you can get a chance to explore them in these two tours.

The first option is to head over to the Lamington National Park. It is part of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Gondwana Rainforests of Australia. It’s a great place to explore Queensland’s subtropical beauty.

There will be a pick-up service from your Gold Coast hotel and you can enjoy a scenic drive to the park. There will be a pit stop at the Gallery Walk where you can browse local arts and crafts shops as well as admire the wonderful view of the surrounding forest and Pacific Ocean.

Your base for the day will be O’Reilly’s Rainforest Retreat. It is a family-owned nature resort that is located in the heart of Lamington National Park. There’s plenty of time to admire the surroundings and the sounds of bird calls during your leisure time.

One of O’Reilly’s most popular activities is a treetop canopy walk. They are a series of nine footbridges suspended 16 meters (45 feet) in the air which will give you an amazing view of the subtropical rain forest. You will have a guide who will point out highlights of the diverse ecosystem and give you knowledge of the flora and fauna in the area.

Once back on the ground, you will have an up-close encounter with native bird species – bowerbirds, wedge-tailed eagles, Albert lyrebirds and king parrots! There will be guided bird feeding during this time so you will have a chance to have birds peck seed from the palm of your hands!

There is an option to have a sumptuous lunch at O’Reilly’s on-site café. You also have an option to purchase snacks and estate-made wines during this time.

Your last stop is an alpaca farm where you can meet the friendly and furry alpacas. You can take photos with them before leaving to go back to your Gold Coast hotel.
