Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- virtualtraveller2012Brisbane135 contributionsOpens early for early risers. Had the park to myself for my morning walk and contemplation. Undulating landscape with ponds, bridges and enclosed walkways. Interest at every turnWritten 16 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Heken1954Sydney, Australia117 contributionsAll ages will find this interesting. This museum is much more than the Cobb & Co Museum though. There is an interesting section on indigenous story telling and a very interesting subsection on the relationship between indigenous local people and artefacts that have special meaning to them. I found that really fascinating. The section on the Cobb & Co coaches was absolutely fascinating. Beautifully restored snd maintained, there are 51 coaches that provide a detailed insight in to how people lived using coaches pulled by horses or goats and then later, motorised. Historically it provides a great timeline as it starts at the very beginning of Cobb & Co and continues past WW1. Fascinating.
The other thing the museum is doing is trying to teach various hands on skills such as blacksmithing, wood working etc. Impressive.Written 21 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- bobjanhBrisbane, Australia1,812 contributionsLovely park near the centre of Toowoomba: especially worth visiting during the Spring Flower Show when it hosts wonderful flower displays.

- Barbara KBrisbane, Australia629 contributionsTravelled to the carnival last Friday. As always, it did not disappoint. The months of planning and dedication in presenting these magnificent displays is mind boggling. Congratulations to all involved in bringing such beauty to so many, especially in these trying times when things often seem very bleak. A great turnout, perfect weather and glorious fragrances and colour.Written 21 September 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Natasha RBrisbane, Australia121 contributionsWe had the best time seeing The Adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert. The box office was really good at changing our tickets over. The venue was really easy to get to. The staff were wonderful. Amenities were clean. And the whole place is absolutely beautiful!!Written 10 September 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- brpegarEllon, UK15 contributionsThis railway museum was so inspiring. We were given a magnificent tour by Ian who took us through explaining each of the exhibits. He explained how a steam engine works and we even got to see the inside of the boiler.
The volunteers there were so friendly and helpful.
The dream carriage was completely awe inspiring. Seeing an indigenous exhibit painted into a carriage with no fanfare other than what it is an incredible piece of art was superb.
Thoroughly recommend, would have given it more stars if I could.Written 2 August 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- qldfamily01Roma, Australia49 contributionsKloud9ine is one of our first stops in Toowoomba. It is great for the kids to burn some energy after the long car trip. Staff are great with the kids. Book online as it’s easier and you are guaranteed to fit in the session. My kids are very energetic and we have done back to back sessions at times. The only suggestion I would have would to be to change up the games that they play during the session. We have been about 10 times and they have played dodgeball, bull rush and high jump everytime. We will be back againWritten 11 December 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Murray HBrisbane, Australia168 contributionsLocated under the windmills of the Cobb & Co Museum, the market offers fantastic fresh produce, good coffee and breakfast options and some interesting products. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Toowoomba on a Saturday morning.Written 23 September 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Vegout11166 contributionsOn holidays from Far North Qld and decided to stop here for lunch on the way from Kingaroy to Stanthorpe. We loved this place. Great drinks, awesome food but best of all was the staff. The bar girl was very entertaining and so friendly. The chef also had a chat and was so welcoming. These two are assets to the business. Shame we can’t come here every week.Written 17 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
