Outback Tasting Adventures Cairns and Northern Beaches

Experience a day of tasting and discovery in the Atherton Tablelands, departing from Cairns and Northern Beaches. This leisurely adventure takes you to some of the most celebrated food and drink venues across a landscape shaped by rich volcanic soils, lush rainforest, and rolling farmland.

Your journey begins at Lake Barrine, a picturesque crater lake ringed by ancient rainforest, where you can relax with locally sourced tea or coffee as you take in tranquil views. Continue on to Winter and Mann in Yungaburra, where your hosts open their home for an exclusive sample of regional flavours in an intimate setting.

Enjoy gourmet lunch at the Australian Platypus Park, accompanied by fresh salads and award-winning smoked meats including crocodile, Red Claw yabby, and kangaroo, plus boutique beers and tropical ciders. Afterwards, sample tropical fruit wines and liqueurs before visiting Gallo Dairyland for freshly made cheeses and chocolates.

The tour continues with spirit tastings at Mt Uncle Distillery, samplings of seasonal produce and regional goods at The Humpy, and a sweet finish at Emerald Creek Ice Creamery. Reflect on a day of regional tastes as you return to Cairns through scenic countryside.
