Our vineyard was planted in 1999 and since then we have progressively increased our production to meet demand. We are two ex school teachers who made a tree change to the Granite Belt to grow grapes, make wine and open a cellar door. It’s a hands-on operation as all processes are completed by the two of us on site. We skillfully create regional wines that exhibit strong varietal fruit characters.
This winery is celebrating 20 years in 2019 and it is always worth a visit. You might be welcomed by their winery dog Ralph or by the smiling faces of Sue and Warren - but you will always get a warm welcome. We recently returned with a 2006 bottle of their Bernie’s Blend (named after Warren’s dad) and man it had aged well!! So buy some to drink now and some to put away - you won’t regret it!! Beautiful location near the Girraween National Park - so lovely scenery on the way (but watch out for the local kangaroos).

The largest butterfly flight aviary and exhibit in Australia - an all weather experience in the heart of the Kuranda village. Home to over 1500 magnificent butterflies, youll be enchanted by the arial dynamics of these elusive wonders of nature as you wonder through the aviary's rainforest gardens.
Incredible, if you’ve never been to a butterfly sanctuary you need to go! They have many different kinds of butterflies flying freely which is amazing to be amongst and watch them dance around the air around you. It’s a really pretty garden too!

Inside, you’ll walk through a series of 75,000 litre American White Oak Vats – the very same vats which have matured hundreds of thousands of litres of rum (after being emptied and rebuilt of course). Inside these vats live a sensory experience where you can see, touch and smell your way through our rich history in creating Australia’s Favourite Rum – Bundaberg Rum.

Awesome tour and well worth the price. Our party of three adults thoroughly enjoyed the guided tour by Bobbi - very knowledgeable, friendly and enjoyed her humour :) Definitely an asset to the team and added to the great Aussie vibe. Samples were great inspiration to encourage purchases via the giftshop. Very happy with our outing! Definitely advise utilising a taxi to thoroughly enjoy the samples!

Experience the inner workings of this heritage brewery, explore the story of beer, and gain an insight into the 135 year history of an Australian icon. Get close to the action as you walk through the heart of the brewery, and finish with a tasting session in the unique Ale House bar. Lasting approximately 90 minutes the XXXX Brewery Tour is an entertaining and educational experience which tells the colourful XXXX story.
3 of us took part in the Brewery Tour yesterday - from the video at the start to the tasting at the end we couldn't fault it. The tour was both informative and entertaining. Can't believe I have lived in QLD for 44 years and this is the first time I have done the tour. Looking at some of the old cans and bottles along the way brought back different memories in my own life. Great sampling of the different styles they brew at the end. We followed it up with a couple of souvenirs and lunch at the Alehouse - no better way to spend a morning.

Welcome to the Qantas Founders Museum. We are an independent not-for-profit community organization and registered charity, operating since 1996, to commemorate the ethos and preserve the material heritage of the founders and early operations of Qantas Airways Ltd. Characters of the early Qantas days, their pioneering spirit and the impact the airline had for all Australians, is brought to life through life size exhibits, historical artefacts and interactive displays including the National Heritage Listed Qantas Hangar. Visitors enjoy informative tours of the Museum's aircraft including the Boeing 707, Boeing 747, DC3 and new Super Constellation aircraft. Visitors can also enjoy the Museum's new Luminescent Longreach night experience. Visitors can also treat themselves to a coffee or a meal in McGinness’s Restaurant and purchase a souvenir from the Founders Store.
I wasn't really sure what to expect here except that it was the home of Qantas. I'm not particularly interested in aircraft so wondered if it would really need much time. The Jet Tour (our guide Sarah) was wonderful - you are able to see the planes close up and hear about the different features as well as the history of the aircraft. The tour runs for 90 minutes and you get to see a number of the aircraft including the 747 and 707. A benefit of going on the Jet Tour (although not a requirement) is that you get to understand some of the history etc when you go back into the self-guided museum and find out more about the aircraft. Sarah was passionate.and informative and made the tour! The Don Hill recreation of Fysh & McGuinness's expedition from Longreach to Darwin to find airstrips is definitely worth watching, it's amazing to see the distances they travelled with none of the modern conveniences and cars that we have today - they were inspirational and changed the lives of many in the outback. You also learn the connection between Royal Flying Doctors and Qantas. I spread the visit over 2 days, initially thinking that I would only need a couple of hours. I think in the end I spent around 5 hours at the museum (including the tour) and there was definitely more I could have seen if I had time. The only negative I have for this entire experience was that the cafe gentleman was quite rude when I asked about getting takeaway and queried a price (I didn't know that they also charged for all of the containers). This is definitely something you should put on the list of must sees - particularly if you have an interest in aviation history but even if you don't there is plenty to learn and keep you occupied.

Colourful, buzzing, great range of fruit and veg, plus the odd live singer, cafe with awesome breads and cakes, and a few jewellery/craft stalls. A must do, even just to take photos. Four avocados for $2! Open Friday, Saturday and Sunday only.
