Description:

Venture into the pristine wilderness of the Noosa Everglades—an ecological treasure trove with thousands of species of birds, animals, and plants. This nature-infused excursion features a wildlife river cruise, an authentic Aussie meal, and an optional paddle upstream in a classic canoe.

Enjoy a convenient hotel pickup and head to the Noosa River, the only river system in Australia protected within Cooloola National Park. Here, board your purpose-built vessel and gently float through calm lakes and distinct wetlands until you reach the tranquil, mirrored waterways of the Noosa Everglades.

Marvel at the abundant and varied wildlife, from migratory shorebirds and butteflies, to rare dugon and sea turtles. Make a stop at the Kinaba Interpretive Center and follow your guide along its boardwalk to learn more about this thriving ecosystem.

Then head to Harry’s Hut—a relic of the area's timber-cutting past—to savor a delicious barbecue lunch of premium steaks, barramundi, and fresh, local produce. Post-meal, go for a dip in the clear waters, snap frame-worthy nature photos, or simply take a break and revel in the astounding beauty surrounding you.

If you're feeling adventurous, choose the optional canoe trip, where you can slowly paddle your way through this ancient habitat, while taking in the rich biodiversity on display.
