It was a very enjoyable trip. We did 4 main activities in Tamborine Mountain: Glow worm cave, Curtis Falls, Skywalk and lunch/walk at Gallery. It was a beautiful day, we drove through scenic ways and had plenty of photo opportunities. Our driver and guide Michelle was an absolute delight. She was very knowledgeable and allowed adequate time for all the activities. Highly recommend this trip.

This tour is excellently organised and a really good tour, you can choose what you want to see in your preferred order and they simply drop you off then pick you up then on to the next venue. I’d highly recommend this tour, it’s a great day out

This trip was an easy way to see some of the highlights of Tambourine Mountain. The structure of it was more like a standard group tour rather than a hop on hop off bus. I appreciated that we had quite a bit of flexibility — some activities you had to join the group, but you could also request to be dropped off somewhere different. Overall, it was a good set mix of things to do, and with a leisurely pace, though I found the glow worm experience underwhelming.

Easy to use hop on and off bus service, great way to make your way around the mountain and see many of the different attractions .

Scotty from Pineapple Tours is a wonderful, knowledgeable driver who showed us the beauty of the scenic rim. Highly recommended as you get to see so many places and experience the true natural beauty of Queensland. Thanks for today!

Great guide in Antonio. Bit confusing on pick up. Rained a good portion of day, and we made the best of it. Would recommend. Check weather if possible.
Chloe_P, Feb 2025
Super flexible!! Antonio is incredibly knowledgeable! This experience is very ‘choose your own adventure’. You can get on/off the bus as you please and select which activities you’d like to do most of all.

Great tour! We had Michelle as our tour guide, she was fab and really knowledgeable.
The guides asked which sites we wanted to see around the mountain and picked us up at each point to take us to the next. Highly recommend this tour.

The experience at the Glow worm cave was unique. The rainforest that was created on site was truly lovely. The waterfall we visited hidden within the rainforest was amazing. Then we were taken to this lovely hotel for lunch and there you'll find 3 amazing St Bernard dogs, a kukubara and a beautiful peacock running around. The day ended running around the many original shops present in the main street of the small village. A great way to spend the day

Very chill experience. Pineapple tours is very experienced and professional. We use pineapple tour with our 2 kids (7 and 10 years old) and an elderly.
1) The lady tour guide is very welcoming and friendly.
2) Tour is very structured and we know the schedule as it was well communicated.
3) Started with a 20mins Glowworm tour, went for a 30mins walk as part of a national park tour in the tambourine mountains area (walk was manageable)
4) there was ample time given for lunch
5) at end of tour, there was time to walk around the town area for souvenirs.
We also forgot to get one of our stuffs when we went back to the hotel. Pineapple tour was quick to bring it back to us after we call the hotline.
Thanks for the professionism and pleasant tour.
