Itinerary highlights
Time to explore the iconic Eumundi Markets – Australia's largest artisan market
Your journey begins with a scenic drive to Eumundi, the location of Australia’s favourite artisan marketplace, Eumundi Markets, with locally made arts and crafts, local produce, plenty of stalls, and multiple entertainers.
You’ll first be given a little bus tour around the markets where we will highlight points of interest and ensure you know where everything is.
Your Eumundi Markets experience will include 2 hours of free time to explore, indulge, shop and be entertained throughout the markets, and possibly slip over to the local bookshop or breweries in the main street.
Gourmet Lunch and Drink with local produce at Pomona restaurant
Next you will be taken on a scenic drive to Pomona, the heart of the Noosa Hinterland, to indulge in a gourmet lunch, crafted from fresh local ingredients and paired with a refreshing drink. Following lunch, you’ll have some free time to explore this wonderful village.
Panoramic views of Noosa Everglades, Hinterland and beyond
A scenic drive will take you deep into the Noosa Hinterland thick with lush forests and the occasional view, as we make our way to the Noosa Everglades and Lake Cootharaba, Noosa’s largest lake. You will have little free time to appreciate the surroundings and spot wild kangaroos.
Noosa Everglades River Cruise on Everglades Eco Safaris Serenity Cruise
Then for the big finale, where you will enjoy a relaxing 2.5 hour boat cruise through the Noosa Everglades, with stunning views, including the ‘River of Mirrors’, where your host will provide commentary and a glass of beer or bubbles.
On the journey home, we will endeavour to have you back at your accommodation in time for sunset and dinner.
