This was a brilliant way to end the day and our outback tour. Dan took us around the station and entertained us with plenty of stories ending the evening around a campfire, with plenty of drinks and nibbles, to watch the sun go down. Great guy An experience totally not to be missed.

Located just a couple of minutes from Caboolture is White Ridge, an educational and fun farm experience. Visit the friendly farm animals that you can pat and feed, and you may even see some exotic animals that you haven't seen before. Get a kiss from our friendly camel Gypsy, and hand feed our beautiful llamas and alpacas. Cuddle the lambs and the baby goats, feed the chickens and give Babe the miniature pig a rub on the belly. The miniature horse and donkey are always a favourite, as is the bumpy, bouncy hay ride around the farm. We have Putt Putt golf, an adventure playground, trampoline and a barn with lots of shady tables and chairs which is perfect for a picnic, and the perfect spot to relax in the shade and enjoy your day. White Ridge Farm is open 5 days a week, Wednesday to Sunday 9am to 3pm. Pony rides are every weekend from 10 till 2. It is wheelchair friendly with bitumen pathways and wheelchair amenities. So pack a picnic, grab the family and head on out to the farm!!

We visited White Ridge Farm in the Easter school holidays & the kids had a ball! They enjoyed feeding & patting the animals and also enjoyed the mini golf, playground & jumping castle. It was relaxing for the parents too!

Worthwhile visit. Great experience for the kids. Well presented tour. Would recommend to others. Would be good to try some fresh goat milk though. (Although I'm sure health and reg. probably do not permit)

Tinaberries is a working fruit producing farm nestled between the city of Bundaberg and the Southern Great Barrier Reef coastal town of Elliott Heads. Rich in history and even a residential wild kangaroo "Bob" this is a truly wonderful experience. Rich soil from this volcanic region coupled with the tropical climate enables Tinaberries to produce superior quality fruit year round. Fruit is sold direct on the farm, locally and even transported to Melbourne’s finest restaurants. During strawberry growing season visitors are invited to "Pick your own" which is very popular with locals as well as visitors to the region. All year around Tinaberries sells delicious fresh fruit ice cream in huge serves! Whether it's to call in on a drive back from the coast for an ice cream, Pick you own strawberries or just to soak up the traditional and historic farm yard experience, Tinaberries has something for every visitor to the South East Queensland region. Right now it's ICE CREAM SEASON!!

KUR-Cow Barnwell Farm

G'day mate! Looking for a fun day out for the family? Welcome to Kur-Cow Barnwell Farm - a working cattle station located in tropical North Queensland. We've got activities to entertain the whole family! We are also open for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner! Bookings essential.

Reviewed By 967garethj

Popped up to KUR-Cow on a cosy winter Saturday morning for a fun activity (we wanted to try ATV quad biking!). The course was great fun, the instructor, Jennifer was lovely and gave us two options of a more basic route... or a more adventurous option... We took the latter through the creek, stopping to feed the bull and cows (and a baby calf) on the way! After the ATV we stayed for lunch, while it was cooking we got to feed the horses, goats, alpacas and ponies as well as have a look at the bird menagerie. The food was epic! We sat with an incredible view of the rainforest... and some of the best ribs I've had in Cairns (we went for the low n slow lunch as we were there early... But talking to the staff they mentioned better for evening BBQ (they also said they host a sunset view, which I think would be nice, so thinking of driving back again one evening). There aren't any signs, but easy enough to find with Google maps or sat nav, at the junction it top of Kuranda range just follow the road opposite (reverse direction) to Kuranda Village. Overall definitely worth a morning trip, and tempted to go back for a horse ride and sunset BBQ!

Great place for kids and animal lovers! The Glamping Tents were first class with everything we could possibly need. You could literally bring clothes and that’s it! Such a relaxing place and the animals make it even better. Camping is a bit of a hassle for our family with a new born and the Glamping Tents made it possible. We got the experience with our family without any effort whatsoever. They have absolutely everything you could possibly need in the accommodation (even firewood to have a camp fire!) we can’t wait to come back again!

Cape Trib Exotic Fruit Farm

We offer an Exotic Fruit Tasting and Orchard Tour every day at 2 pm. There is always ten different tropical fruit on the menu - fruit you have probably never heard of,with names like 'chocolate pudding fruit' and 'creme caramel fruit'.We show you how to prepare and eat the fruit, share interesting stories about the fruit from around the world, and then take you for a walk through the orchard which has more than 2000 fruit trees from the Amazon, Borneo and the Caribbean. This tour is not just a plate of fruit - it offers a special experience which cannot be found anywhere else and is great fun.

Tried several fruits I didn’t even know existed and learned about their growth and history. This was definitely one of the highlights in our trip! Recommended!
