About this tour
Spend three to four hours at this beloved Queensland attraction an hour north of Brisbane, where the whole family can ride the heritage Ginger Train as many times as you like through lush gardens, hop aboard the Overboard boat past 200 puppets, bounce on the jumping castle, and explore the rainforest with augmented reality. The Play All Day pass lets you tick off the rides without queuing repeatedly, leaving time to wander the grounds and gift shop at your own pace.

What to expect
This is a relaxed, multigenerational spot rather than a high-octane theme park. You'll spend your time shuttling between a handful of rides—the train moves slowly through landscaped sections, the boat glides past handcrafted dioramas—with plenty of downtime to sit, sniff the plants, and let little legs burn energy on the grass. The augmented reality rainforest game works on your own device, so don't expect fancy tech; it's a simple layer over the actual forest. Queues are usually brief on the rides themselves.
Good to know
Bring your own phone charged for the AR trail. Food and drinks aren't included, so pack snacks or use the on-site café. Prams are fine everywhere. It's about an hour's drive from Brisbane; check local transport links if you're not hiring a car.
