Things to do in

Canungra, Australia

Enjoy a panoramic morning ride with an expert crew, before toasting a glass of bubbly at breakfast and touring a vineyard. Start your morning with pickup in an air-conditioned bus from select Gold Coast hotels and head out to the launch site. Watch the impressive balloon inflate and snap some photos before taking flight. Take in panoramic views of the Gold Coast skyline, hinterland, and surrounding mountain ranges. Once you gently touch back down, have a laugh with pack-up games before a short drive to the vineyard for a champagne breakfast on the veranda of the grand homestead. Toast a glass of bubbly and enjoy a delicious feast. Take some time afterwards to explore the vineyard and taste some other wines. Conclude the tour with hotel drop-off, or opt to be dropped off at the theme park.

After pickup from your accommodation, head towards Lamington National Park. Located 1,000 meters above sea level, the park boasts rugged mountain scenery, waterfalls, caves, and one of the largest sections of subtropical rainforest on earth. Learn stories of the area, including the tragic Stinson plane crash, and experience some treetop canopy walking. Stop at the Canungra Valley Vineyard, situated in a beautiful location by a mountain stream. Sample the vineyard’s own sparkling wine and meet the property’s animals. See the variety of exotic birds and pet the cute alpacas.
