Reviews
This tour is highly recommended! Our tour guide, Mark, was very professional, introducing us to the ecology of various animals and plants at the Wildlife Park and Springbrook. The scenery from SkyPoint was beautiful, and the food was delicious too.
The tour guide was relaxed, funny, and humorous, introducing different places, plants, and animals along the way. This activity includes admission to the Skypoint on the Gold Coast and lunch. Overlooking the entire Gold Coast from the 77th floor is breathtaking! Finally, the tour guide also took us to visit wild kangaroos, and we were lucky enough to find a koala!
good stroll in the rainforest, nice waterfalls
