Highlights
  • The Original Eumundi Markets - The Markets only operate on a Wednesday and Saturday. On Fridays the tour visits Eumundi Square which is a mini version of the Markets at the same location. You can’t go the Sunshine Coast without visiting the Markets which has been operating for over 40 years and now has over 400 stalls displaying mostly local produce and craft.

  • Montville Visitor Information Centre - This artist village has grown into a major tourist destination with a eclectic range of art and craft. Recommend you grab a cup of coffee and browse the shops.
  • Noosa Main Beach - Our main destination for the day this is one of Australia’s premier tourist districts and beach. Set next to the National Park this picturesque district is a “must see”. Visit the upmarkets shops, take a stroll or swim at Main Beach. Stroll along the coast to the Noosa Heads National Park. Plenty to see and do.

Great trip, Bruce was a good driver and guide too. - The market had over 300 very eclectic stalls, very busy but easy to see everything. A great friendly vibe, would recommend a visit. Noosa is truly beautiful, wish we'd of had more time there though. 1.5hours wasn't enough for us.

Great tour outside of the city. - We went in an overcast day, but it was still enjoyable. The markets run rain or shine. The tour guide was knowledgeable and funny.

Noosa Day Out - Nice day out and about driving to the Sunshine coast and Noosa. Our day started at 7.45am at the Skytower Apartments - this tour does not offer accommodation pickup. Brian introduced himself to the group as our driver for the day. We spent time at the Mary Cairncross lookout, Montville Village for a coffee stop, Eumundi markets for 1 hour (just enough time to look around although some people would have liked more time), Noosa Heads for 1hr 30 mins and finally at the Ginger Factory and Nutworks. The day ended back at the Skytower apartments. Enjoyable day.

The trip was informative... - The trip was informative and interesting at times. I found that Bruce’s commentary at times was hard to hear, he had a lot of information to impart but at times listening was difficult. The timing for the trip was well managed and the timetable was adhered to well. It would have been better if we could have spent more time at the Ginger Attraction, certainly not enough time for ice cream (the ginger and macademia nut was amazing) and looking around the shop. I would recommend the trip but be prepared to keep to the timetable as there is little room for deviation.
