My girlfriend and I were lucky enough to be in a small group of 3 with Royd as our tour guide. You can tell that Royd loves his job and he was always telling us funny stories about how he scared people in his tour (he pulls some fun pranks on you! I won't tell you what he does so... More

Roy and Darren were fantastic guides they were knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife and made sure the whole group enjoyed the experience by filling it with laughs. The food on the 4WD O'Reilly Tour was fantastic! I definitely recommend choosing the steak for the BBQ lunch and the scones for the morning tea were also delicious. Definitely one... More

It was a very enjoyable day trip with the group packed with various activites for any age and great opportunity to check out the national parks. Excellent guides - helpful, on time, informative, cheeky and mix in well with the group for a good laugh. The freshly made morning tea and BBQ lunch was simply delicious. Highly recommended and thanks... More

As a travel agent I get so many clients telling me they want to see the Gold Coast and asking me for theme park passes to do this. If you want to see the REAL Gold Coast you need to get off the beaten track. I have been up Tamborine Mountain 4 times now and this was my first time... More

This is an absolute must do tour!!!! We all thoroughly enjoyed this trip and couldn’t stop laughing from start to finish. It is a family run business, Darren, his dad Royd and Darren’s wife. It is well worth upgrading and spending a full day on this trip. Extremely minor points to note was when we stopped for morning tea there... More

We took a daytrip with Southern Cross into the Gold Coast hinterland just a day or so into our first trip to Australia, and what a great trip it was. Royd is a great driver and an even better guide, and the itinerary through sub-tropical rainforests and several national parks was spectacular. Couldnt wipe the grin off our faces, watching... More
