I enjoyed the whole lot, but I do love waterfalls and really liked the waterfall. The driver was on time for pick up and was a very nice man. He took us to a beautiful lookout as well and you could see Brisbane in the far distance and from a certain angle you could also see the top of the Q1 building .

Unforgettable Trip

Shannon_W, Mar 2020

Me and my friends are studying abroad in Australia and had a great time on this trip! We saw a ton of kangaroos and even a koala and two wallabies. Throwing the boomerang was also super fun and the bus rides between destinations our tour guide talked to us just enough. It was one of my favorite trips I have done so far!

Response from Host, Mar 2020

Gday Shannon_W, Thank you so much for the review and 5 star rating! It is super great to hear you had such a lovely time, and that you you saw so many aussie animals in the wild! I am so pleased that the boomerang throwing and guide made your day even better, and we hope you can join us again next time you visit the Gold Coast! Take care - Sc Tours
