We took the 4WD EcoTour with Dave and it was soo much fun! Dave took us around the island where we could not do it with our own vehicle. My girls aged (3 and 7) and my wife and myself spent the half day on Straddie with Dave. We were treated to a lot of knowledge about the island, as well as seeing all the glorious sites. I loved that we were able to access parts of the island that I would never have been able to with my own vehicle. We saw a lot of wildlife, swam in pristine waters and left with our bellies full. Thank you Dave for your wonderful hospitality.

Great experience with lots of naturally beautiful scenery. Although it rained it didn’t really interfere with the experience and the tour guide has back up plans. Lots of learnings taught by the guide the entire trip. Plenty of amenities along the way. Highly recommend.

Come for a drive with me to the beautiful stradbroke island. Picking you up at your hotel destination we will go catch the ferry to stradbroke and have an enjoyable coffee on board whilst gazing at the wonderful shoreline. Our next stop will be a quick dip in the brown lake which is coloured because of the native tea trees that grow all around it. Next we will go to point lookout and stroll the manmade bridges along the foreshore of the beach where we can watch surfers and maybe catch a look at a whale or two. Last but definately not least we will drive to amity point to walk along the jetty and feed the pelicans :) This is a wonderful way to get in touch with nature and is a beautiful relaxing day :) Keep an eye out for kangaroos and koalas!

Inclusions: Ferry Fare, Air-conditioned vehicle, Hotel Pick Up, Snacks, Bottled water

Tania our guide was great. It was my 60th and I was looking for a little company that offered great value for money and I got it. The wineries we went to had great wines and were very pretty. We even went to a little boutique distillery where we got to sample some interesting liqueurs. We didn't know exactly where we were going at the start but as it turned out two of our stops were on my bucket list to visit. We all had a fantastic time with heaps of laughs. COVID restrictions had been eased in Queensland recently and we just had to sanitise and sign in at each venue and that was great.
