About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Trek506652342530 contributionsHinderland experience Sunshine CoastAmazing tour, from Mooloolaba, got collected from where we were staying, a full day trip inc chocolate tasting as well as wine and cheese. Lunch at the Secrets Lake, went to Montville and passed through lots of other towns. 100 percent well worth going on this tour.Written 2 August 2024
- Mikemaree19760 contributionsThroughly recommended, you will enjoyA totally enjoyable experience. Great visits to winery, brewery and distillery, and a wonderful lunch. Tour guide Deb was excellent. We all had a terrific time and we are already planning to do this again.Written 18 April 2024
- georginawB9977ZW0 contributionsHighly RecommendFrom first point of contact to drop off at the end of the day Creative Tours were brilliant. Fast and friendly responses, and lot's of choice when organising. We had to postpone a few days prior to our booking date as half the team were unwell, and this was no problem. We rescheduled with ease and had a great day with Craig our host. Lots of laughs along the way, a great day out had by all.Written 27 January 2024
- alexisrJ1051CP0 contributionsVIP experienceThis was our first time wine tasting and our guide, Deb, as well as the staff at the locations we visited were so friendly and informative. It felt like a day out with friends. So many locations with different inclusions such as wine tasting, beer tasting, vodka/gin/rum tasting, 2 course lunch provided, cheese platters, and more! All the food was incredible and being picked up and dropped off right at the front door of our accommodation ensured a carefree day where all we had to think about was enjoying ourselves. I'd love to see what other tours are available, we had a truly fantastic time.Written 13 January 2024
- stephaniemB3853NY0 contributionsThe perfect end of year staff party!We chose the Noosa Hinterland Drinks Tour for our team Christmas Party (Clarity Accounting Solutions) and absolutely loved it! Lots of fun and Deb was a great host. Highly recommended!Written 20 December 2023
- Steve C0 contributionsFriendly and EnoyableVery friendly and knowledgeable driver/tour guide. Nothing seemed to bother him, got to the breweries easily. He ensured everyone had their requests fulfilled and beers enjoyed. I did the Sunshine Coast Craft Beer tour and happily recommend this tour. I am now planning to undertake the Noosa Brewery and Distillery Trail tour with Creative Tours.Written 2 December 2023
- robyntB2355RO0 contributionsGreat tourLovely tour - very good tour operator - lovely food, but did not go much on pizza (bit too spicy) Lovely cheesesWritten 23 November 2023

- Cranium590 contributionsGreat host, great local produce, great locations, great tourWe had a fantastic time on our Noosa Hinterland Drinks tour. Deb was an excellent host and every location was a unique experience. The tour definitely exceeded our expectations and we’ll be excited to enjoy our various purchases when we get home. Highly recommend Creative Tours for those visiting the Sunshine Coast.Written 31 October 2023
- Clearkoala800 contributionsNoosa Hinterland exploringWe had a great day- comfortable vehicle, very friendly tour leader (thanks Deb!!) and excellent company. The venues we went to were interesting and the business owners were very willing to share their knowledge with us and provided very generous tastings. It was a lovely exploration of the area beyond the beaches and shops of Noosa.Written 4 August 2023
- H3258BZheidid0 contributionsDefinitely do it againWe loved the great range off different distilleries and massive range off flavours throughout the hinterland we had great company on the tour and some good laughs.Written 4 August 2023
- Kathrynsolotravels0 contributionsExcellentGreat to meet like minded people interested in supporting local business and knowledgeable companiesWritten 4 August 2023
- 834nyssap0 contributionsPerfect way to enjoy beer, wine and gin!Went and visited some great local distilleries and breweries on this tour. Most of these places we wouldn’t have been able to discover on our own. The day was well run and Deb was a great host. Look forward to going on another Creative Tour in the future.Written 29 July 2023
- ashleighmoon0 contributionsInteresting tour with a great guide and good company!My partner and I went on this tour as part of our holiday in Noosa. We met Deb at a location that was near Hastings Street with several other central pick-up options available. The bus was clean, well kept and maintained. Deb was very lovely and told some interested stories about the area and the local residents throughout the day. The group of people we toured with were absolutely lovely and is always interesting coming together with people from all walks of life, wether that be grain farmers, young Brisbanites or the lovely couple from the USA. This tour was as much about bringing different cultures together as it was the alcohol. Though I am not a huge drinker myself, I did try most things and there were non alcoholic options available if needed (though with Deb as the designated driver feel free to indulge!). The locations we visited were varied and you can tell that at each location everyone was very passionate and knowledgeable about their products and keen to share. The cheeseboard was delicious and the day ended back at our pick up location with a complimentary wine glass from the last stop of the day. This would suit couples of any age, or those wanting to go solo with a friendly group of people! Will definitely consider other creative tours in the future when visiting the Sunshine Coast again!Written 29 July 2023
- K898AJhollyw0 contributionsFantastic and Unique Hinterland Experience!My husband and I were visiting from the states and had the most lovely experience! Every stop was beautiful, unique, and had amazing drinks. Our guide, Deb, was super and we’d highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting lovely Hinterland views and tasty gin/beer/wine! If we ever have the opportunity to visit this part of Australia again we will definitely be back!Written 29 July 2023

Recently enjoyed the Sunshine Coast Food Trail with Lunch in, and it was a fantastic experience. Our guide, Josh, was incredible—knowledgeable and friendly, he added a special touch to the day.
The highlight was a mouthwatering lunch in Maleny, featuring locally sourced ingredients in beautifully presented dishes. Josh's insights and engaging commentary throughout the tour made it even more enjoyable.
In short, a delightful day with great food, friendly company, and stunning scenery. Special thanks to Josh for making it memorable!
