Thursday 2nd July Hi Great day with driver Dave who was so helpful with the bus load of ladies. I was the only one going to Ginger Factory plenty of time at both Ginger factory and Nut factory across the road. Please give my thanks to Dave. I had front seat and easy conversation with Dave some ladies went to Market and also had a great day with many purchases. Picked up on time from my accommodation Great tour would recommend Kerrie
Response from the owner:That's wonderful to hear Kerrie. Thank you so much for leaving a review. I'll pass on your comments to Dave..
Dave was lovely! Very friendly and helpful, and down for a chat. Van was very clean and neat. Dave offered to show some of the guests where a place to book boat tours were after he dropped the rest of us off. Also offered to drop us off closer to our hotels/resorts on the way home as there is less of a time constraint. Would highly recommend.
Only note, they need to fix where it says to be picked up. There is NO pick up point at the Coco, first pick up point is the Mantra. We confirmed the pick up point the day prior to our tour.
Response from the owner:Thank you Zoe. Yes we do understand the confusion with pick ups, when you book through travel agents Unfortunately sometimes they give slightly different information. However the official pick ups from Mooloola bar are exactly as you said mantra Mooloolaba beach and sea life Mooloolaba. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review.
Our group of golfers had a great experience with Coast to Hinterland Tours. The bus was comfortable, they were always on time and the driver Scott, was excellent. Thanks .
Response from the owner:Thank you, Olwyn. It was our pleasure. I'm glad the weather was kind to you.

Wow what a day!!! We had a wonderful day today celebrating our 18 year wedding anniversary by doing the Sunshine Coast Hinterland Scenic Culinary Experience! Our tour guide Lucas was so awesome - he was fabulous from start to finish. We had such a lovely relaxing day celebrating with yummy cheese tastings, chocolate tastings, wine tastings, a divine 2 course lunch @ Secrets on the Lake too.
There was also plenty of time to explore the beautiful scenery/lookouts and time to wander the fabulous little boutique shops and just breathe in the fresh air!
Would highly recommend this day tour!
Thank you and it’s a day my hubby and I will always remember!

Our driver Peter, was very nice and told us about the towns that we passed along the way.

Had a fabulous day with C2H tours. Jan was friendly, informative, professional and created a super fun and relaxed day. Thx for your confident driving and local knowledge. Wld definitely tour with you again. Helped that the weather was also stunning. Only small thought is if they dont produce their own cheese maybe pick another form of produce or do the co-op dairy tour. But all in all a super fun day and the sneaky treehouse tour was a fabulous bonus thx heaps Jan 🙏🏻💖 loved it
Response from the owner:Wonderful review and thanks you for the constructive feedback regarding the cheese stop.
We had a wonderful time on our transfer and time at Eumundi markets. Peter was very kind and we enjoyed hearing all the information he told us about the surroundings. Thank you Peter for a lovely day!
Response from the owner:Thank you Amanda, I'll be sure to pass on your comments to Peter. We hope to see you next time.
Highly recommend for those staying near Noosa and need and easy way to get to the ginger factory and or the Emundi markets. Comfortable and air conditioned mini bus.
Rob our driver was a delight, had car seat options for my kids and also took us to stop and check out the markets when we finished early at the factory.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Sarah for taking the time to leave a review of our Eumundi market transfer service very much appreciated
Response from the owner:Thank you for the five star review Tracey
We had a wonderful tour, Lucas our guide and driver is amazing. The venues, sites, commentary and timings had the goldilocks effect, not too long, not too short, just right. Both my husband and I would highly recommend this tour, we have visited the Sunshine Coast many times but taking this tour opened our eyes and experiences to things we never know were there. Such a lovely, lovely day and Lucas is wonderful
