The region is gaining acclaim for its boutique wineries&mdash;take this opportunity to savour a glass of the local red, white, or fortified wine, perhaps selecting a bottle to cherish at home. If you prefer hops and barley, the local brewery offers a tasting flight of their craft beers (at your own expense).

The seasoned guides, experts of the area, will lead you through the Gold Coast Hinterland&rsquo;s rich tapestry of ecosystems, sharing their favourite spots and the secrets of the region&rsquo;s diverse plant and animal life.
