    For a non-rum drinking couple, we wanted to have a look because it is so iconic. Great place. Didn't do a tour but loved seeing the place and the store.

    What a great museum. Informative, well set out and interactive and staff were so helpful. Flight simulators, video history, sit in a replica of the ARVO baby (and see the original!) We did not realise just what an important pioneer of aviation Bert Hinkler was until this visit. And very poignant reminder of the Challenger shuttle disaster in 1986 where a piece of Bert’s original glider was carried on board due to its significance in aviation history, and found months after during searches for debris, still intact. It was presented to the museum by the Challenger Commander Dick Scobee’s wife, June. Well worth visiting.

    The tour was incredibly interesting and we felt the products being sold at the cellar door were well priced and diverse. Overall a brilliant experience.

    We were the last group out and saw not one but two nests hatching! Even the rangers were surprised! We had taken torches with us and all 6 of our group were lucky enough to stand in the middle as the little hatchlings ran to the sea to begin their journey. It was pouring with rain but it didn't matter, nothing could have spoilt that moment. We had quite a wait but the rangers gave talks and were very informative and it seemed to fly by before it was our turn. We even came across a snake on the path and the rangers were so careful with it to make sure it was safe and out of danger. Best experience ever and exactly how I'd hoped it would be

    Today my husband and I went to Tinaberries for a strawberry ice cream. It was the best strawberry ice cream we have ever had. It was so good I didn’t want to finish eating it. Whilst the farm was a bit out of our way we were really pleased we made the effort to go there. The gardens are beautiful and colourful. The outdoor games would make it a great place for families. I hope we can come back one day for another ice cream and look around.

    Botanical Gardens Bundaberg is MUST SEE when you are in the area. We came two days and saw it all, rode the train. Visited Fairymead House, the Museum and the Hinkley Hall of Aviation. All of it was great, but these gardens are so beautiful , well maintained, beautiful grass to sit and relax on and just enjoy the serenity of your surroundings.

    We loved our VIP Tour at Splitters Farm!
    Riley was an excellent tour guide, so passionate and knowledgeable about all the animals,who he knows by name😊. He related how the rescued animals came to the farm and we enjoyed meeting them all.The property is immaculate and like an oasis in every sense of the word.The creek and beach area is lovely! We concluded our experience with a beautifully presented hamper which was delicious! We sat under the trees in an idyllic setting which was both serene and relaxing Carly the owner does in incredible job with all the team at this fantastic property.Highly Recommended to all members of the family!

    We stopped in here during a day visit to Bundaberg. The owner was very friendly. We ordered a cheese platter and a drink paddle which we shared. There were some interesting flavours to sample. They also serve pizza on some days if you prefer that to the cheese platter. Very enjoyable visit.

    A small, well-presented free zoo run by the Bundaberg City Council - one which I reviewed 8 years ago. And it looks like it is very capably run with at least four staff in uniform that I observed and clean, neatly presented enclosures for the animals, reptiles, and birds. The staff were only too willing to interact with visitors and answer questions.

    Beautiful, empty, wide, clean beach with OFF LEASH massive area. People very friendly and aware of other dogs. They will clip dog back on leash if their dog might not be that friendly towards other dogs. Very respectful thing to do. I would come back as often as I can be in that area.

    The small hill gives a good view of the area for miles around. Gives a good perspective of the land use and beautiful coast.

    Intriguing story of the sugar industry and pioneering families in the Bundaberg Region at Fairymead House Museum. Housed in a majestic, grand house which has been relocated from its original site. Includes introduction of mechanisation and cane toads! Informative and interesting displays.

    Great value for money. Single adult ticket was $6 and the trip lasted about 15 minutes weaving its way through the Botanical gardens in Bundaberg. Volunteers were excellent. Bring on the steam train was great fun. Will do it again.

    Beautiful marina. We visited before heading off to Lady Musgrace Island. There were lots of great boats to look at. It is very clean and worth a visit.
