Evening Rainforest & Glow Worm Experience
Join nocturnal wildlife on this evening tour to Tamborine National Park to explore nature after dark & see the twinkling glowworms.What's Included
What to Expect
Take a different approach to nightlife on the Gold Coast with this immersive, nature-based tour to the hinterland and Tamborine National Park.
You'll get picked up from selected locations around Broadbeach, Surfers Paradise, and Main Beach before being whisked off inland. The first stop for the night is for a sweet treat. Enjoy a cup of tea, coffee or hot chocolate at a local restaurant, accompanied by a delicious dessert.
Then, stretch your legs with a fully guided rainforest walk. With the knowledge of your guide, discover the lush forests of Tamborine National Park and spot native nocturnal wildlife. Everyone has a low-watt flashlight to light the walkway. At the end of the trail emerges Curtis Falls, a subtropical waterfall and habitat to the stars of the show – the ever-fascinating glowworms.
While the twinkling lights of these gnat larvae are mesmerising and beautiful, they have a sinister use. The larvae use sticky webs and their bioluminescent glow to lure and catch prey, such as small slugs and snails.
You'll also have the chance to see even more sparkling lights with a stop at a lookout for views of the Gold Coast skyline, plus enjoy some time for star-gazing, spotting constellations like the Southern Cross.
Where we Visit:
- A Hinterland restaurant for dessert
