We had an amazing day on Judy’s farm tour through the region. The sights and flavours were fabulous. We learned so much about fruit I’d never even experienced before. This country is an amazing one and Judy was so informative and a wonderful hostess. Highly recommended tour.

Thoroughly enjoyed our Meet the Farmer tour with Judy. She gets you into local farm properties that aren’t open to the public and it is fascinating meeting the growers and learning about the unique crops grown in the beautiful Sunshine Coast hinterland. We highly recommend joining Judy for a tour.

Judy shared the Glass House Mountains with us in an informative, entertaining and educational manner. Her access to some of the farms and the best points to take photos added to the enjoyment of the day. The bus was comfortable, and spacious. We really enjoyed hearing the first nations people's explanations of the origins of the mountains, and the different interpretations by various cultures. Judy also explained about other options to explore the area further, either by bushwalking or riding the rail trails. She was most generous with her time, and sharing details of other operators in the area who could offer different experiences.

Tours and shuttle service to walks, accommodation and dinner venues around the Glass House Mountains. Judy was so helpful, professional and knowledgeable. We had a 4 day walking tour of the Glass House Mountains. Judy collected us from the train station, took us to walks, we had a lovely tour, and even took us to the Beewah Hotel for dinner each night. Couldn't have done it without Judy.

Judy is a wonderful host, she is so knowledgeable in local information. We enjoyed a great tour with many stops of interesting places. Being able to sample local delicacies, take photos, meet the local farmers and artists made our group tour memorable. Judy has a great sense of humour and kept us all involved in learning about the area. Highly recommended if you are visiting the Sunshine Coast.
