What to expect

You'll be collected from your Brisbane hotel and driven towards the Scenic Rim. Once on Tamborine Mountain, you board the shuttle service which stops at set points every two hours. Between stops, you explore on foot: walk into the national park to find waterfalls, browse independent shops and galleries along the main thoroughfare, grab lunch at one of several cafes, or try local spirits at the distillery (tastings paid separately). The pace is entirely yours. Shuttle schedules mean you don't have to rush—stay put if a spot captivates you, then catch the next service.
