5 Day ‘Two Wonders In One’

Tour RT05

Discover the beautiful world of nature at O’Reilly’s Rainforest Retreat situated in World Heritage Lamington National Park, 3,000 feet above sea level. O’Reilly’s has been family-owned for over 90 years offering a unique Australian experience and legendary hospitality. From Kingfisher Bay Resort you encounter Fraser Island, the world’s largest sand island. Experience the awesome wonder of driving along a beach which stretches as far as the eye can see, swim in the pristine freshwater lakes and enjoy a guided 4WD nature tour.

Day 1: Brisbane – Lamington National Park
Your transfer from Brisbane takes you to one of the world's great subtropical rainforests, 3,000 feet above sea level – Lamington National Park, home to O’Reilly’s Rainforest Retreat. Walk through the treetops on the famous Tree Top Walk and learn about the extensive subtropical plants.

Day 2: O’Reilly’s Rainforest Retreat
Start the day with O’Reilly’s famous birdwalk and meet the hundreds of beautifully coloured birds that visit each morning to feed around the guesthouse. After breakfast, head out on a 4WD bus trip to a spectacular lookout and enjoy fresh billy tea and damper or, if you’re feeling a little more energetic, you might like to take a half-day guided rainforest walk – the choice is yours. This evening join a night tour, an audio visual presentation or simply relax. (B)
