O'Reilly's and Binna Burra Full-Day Tour. Not currently operating.
Brisbane, Australia
Whereas most tours take you to either one or the other entrance of Lamington National Park, we will take you to both entrances of Lamington National Park (Binna Burra and O'Reilly's) all on the one tour. We allow you time to self-guide at your own pace on designated trails to experience the ancient rainforest in your own way. We will occasionally be met by a guide at Binna Burra for a private tour although for the most part you will have time to explore Lamington National Park at your own pace within the scheduled times allowed.
Although your driver/guide is experienced and highly informative, the aim of all our tours is to allow you to connect uninterruptedly with the spirit of this ancient land. Delicious morning and afternoon teas are included however lunch is either BYO picnic or can be purchased at the resorts. Allow budgeting. We provide water and some soft drinks.

Description
Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Lamington National Park, Lamington National Park, Scenic Rim, Brisbane Region, Queensland
Our guide will take you to both entrances of Lamington National Park Walk - Binna Burra where the Antarctic Beech Trees grow, and O'Reilly's where you can imagine being a bird flying high up in the canopy while on the Tree Top walk. History buffs will be enthralled by the real life story of the Stinson airplane crash and heroic rescue of survivors, then view remnants of the plane. You will have time to walk at your own pace along the designated trails to fully absorb the majesty of the ancient rainforest and hopefully spot the local bird and wildlife such as pademelons, crimson rosellas, king parrots, regent bowerbirds, satin bowerbirds, riflebirds and catbirds. Spectacular mountain views are guaranteed. All tours include morning/afternoon tea & lunch.
Duration: 10 hours
Stop At: Kamarun Lookout Rd Lot 496, Queensland 4285 Australia
On the way to Binna Burra we will enjoy a country-style morning tea at a scenic lookout with spectacular views over rolling hills and valleys to the Gold Coast and Pacific Ocean. We will also stop at a scenic lookout where you can see hang gliders prepare for flight over the rugged peaks of the McPherson Range all the way to Mt Warning, the surviving remnant of ancient volcanic activity in the area. The day will finish after visiting O'Reilly's with a delicious afternoon tea at Kamarun Lookout in the Green Mountain section of Lamington National Park. Kamarun Lookout provides stunning panoramic views over mountains and rural valleys to the East, to Brisbane City in the North, and over majestic mountain ranges to the West. Spectacular vermilion sunsets are not uncommon from Kamarun Lookout which also attracts stargazes and the odd UFO spotter on account of the altitude, open skies, and crystal-clear atmospheric conditions. Bring a fleece even in summer as chill winds are common.
