Meet at your hotel to start the tour with a warm welcome you aboard the comfortable air-conditioned luxury and COVID-safe minibus through the Sunshine Coast’s pretty scenery to the first stop, the small and cozy Cellar Door at Sunshine Coast Cider. Here you’ll learn about the cider-making process directly from the maker and enjoy sampling some of the champagne-style cider that’s made on-site.

Next, it’s a short drive through the spectacular scenery of Noosa’s Hinterland to the alternative town of Pomona, nestled at the foot of Mt Cooroora. You’ll be welcomed to an amazing boutique meadery – the Amrita Park Meadery. Mead needs honey, so you may see some honey bees buzzing around the beautiful gardens. Find out more about this fascinating, ancient beverage – and taste a few, of course!

Then, back in the minibus for the short drive to the relaxed, trendy ambience of the Imperial Hotel in Eumundi – there’s lots of space to stretch out, a cool gin distillery out front and a brewery outback. Enjoy a delicious lunch and time to rest and digest – and of course, there is the option for a tasting from a tempting array of gin blends or craft beer – before heading off back through pretty scenery to the Fortune still at Noosa Heads Brewery, which produces vodka and a white malt as well as a range of iconic gins. There’s plenty of time for you to enjoy a tasting before going back to your chosen drop-off location late afternoon.
