Wine Country on Brisbane's Doorstep

Three Wine Regions, One Day Trip

Southeast Queensland isn't the Barossa or the Hunter, but its boutique wine regions have been quietly producing award-winning wines for decades — and they're all within 90 minutes of Brisbane. Mount Tamborine's volcanic-soil vineyards sit 550 metres up in the Gold Coast Hinterland, producing exceptional small-batch wines in a setting that feels more Tuscan hilltown than subtropical coast.

The Scenic Rim, south of Brisbane towards Boonah and Beaudesert, is cooler-climate country producing elegant reds and crisp whites from vineyards set against the McPherson Ranges. And for those willing to go further, the Granite Belt around Stanthorpe — Queensland's coolest wine region at 800 metres — produces genuinely world-class wines.

Our wine tours run in small groups (maximum 20), with an experienced guide who knows the winemakers personally. Every tour includes tastings at three to five cellar doors, a vineyard lunch, and return transport from Brisbane or the Gold Coast. We offer a 10% discount for seniors and pensioners on every wine tour — no code needed, just mention it when booking.

FAQ

Wine Tour Questions

Everything you need to know before booking a Brisbane wine tour with Cooee.

How do I get the senior/pensioner discount?
Select "Senior" when booking online, or mention it when calling. Show your Seniors Card, Pensioner Concession Card, Commonwealth Seniors Health Card, or DVA Gold Card to your guide on the day. The 10% discount applies automatically to all wine tours.
How many wineries do we visit?
Full-day tours visit three to five cellar doors depending on the region. Half-day tours visit two. We adjust the pace to the group — if everyone wants to linger somewhere, we do.
Is lunch included in the price?
Yes — every full-day wine tour includes a sit-down vineyard lunch (not a packed sandwich). Half-day tours include afternoon tea. Wine with lunch is often available at cellar door prices.
Can I buy wine on the tour?
Absolutely — and it's encouraged. Cellar door prices are often better than retail, and some vineyards offer tour-exclusive pricing. We have storage space on the coach for your purchases.
What if I don't drink alcohol?
Non-drinkers are welcome. Cellar doors offer juice, sparkling water, and non-alcoholic options. Many couples come where one partner is the wine enthusiast and the other enjoys the hinterland scenery, food, and company.
Is the tour suitable for people with limited mobility?
Most cellar doors have level access. Our Mercedes coaches have low-step entry and some have wheelchair access. Let us know any mobility requirements when booking and we'll confirm venue accessibility. Mount Tamborine's Gallery Walk is flat and paved.
What's the pickup and drop-off arrangement?
We collect from major Brisbane CBD hotels and Gold Coast hotels (Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach, Coolangatta). Exact pickup times depend on your location — usually between 8:00 and 9:00 AM for full-day tours. Return is typically 4:30–5:30 PM.
How far in advance should I book?
At least a week for standard tours. Weekends and September–November (the best weather for wine country) fill faster. Private group tours need 2–3 weeks' notice. Last-minute availability is sometimes possible — call us on +61 409 661 342.
