Nice tour, I loved Tamborine Mountain. Tour guide was nice and knowledgeable.

The tour guide was really friendly. However, we spent a really short time around the gallery walk, and instead we were given a lot of time in town where there was nothing to see. Everyone from the group agreed it should be the other way around. Coffee plantation was really nice!
