Awesome Glasshouse Mountains tour

Published on Jul, 2024

Joel's Glasshouse Mountains tour is a wonderful way to deepen your experience of this beautiful region. Joel is a great guide whose passion and knowledge about the history, geology, plants and animals is totally engaging. Ever changing views of the amazing countryside from the cosy bus, and a great lunch! Mary Cairncross Reserve is awesome, even more so because of Joel's familiarity with the ecosystem and the birds, animals and plants within it. Inspiring and highly recommended.

Glass House Mountain tour

Me and my family had a fantastic day where we got to see magical scenery of the Glass House Mountains. Joel is a great guide with a lot of wisdom and information. We had a great lunch with a beautiful view and ended the day with a walk in a rainforest. We recommend this to anyone who wants to get close to the mountains and like nature! If we go back to Sunshine Coast we will absolutely go on another tour with Joel’s Journey.

Perfect day tour

Joel’s Glasshouse mountain tour extravaganza

Published on May, 2024

Joel is awesome. The tour is created to perfection with beautiful scenery, cool stories, delicious lunch and the rain forest walk is worth a trip on its own. I can not recommend the experience more and glad Joel created it as not many glass house mountains trips from Noosa available
