Sunshine, Laughs & Good Vibes! What a day! Montville, Maleny, and the Sunshine Coast Hinterland totally delivered — stunning views, beautiful towns, and lots of laughs. Our group clicked instantly, and Joel was the perfect guide: fun, full of local stories, and just the right amount of fun. 10/10 would tour again! Lina and Anna

Joel was a very likeable young man. The knowledge of the area & the bush he had was amazing. This Montville and Malarney tour covered every aspect of what my friend & I were wanting to see. I especially enjoyed the rainforest walk.

We had a great day on our Montville/Maleny tour. Joel was enthusiastic and very knowledgeable of the area and has a passion for the Australian bush. On our rainforest walk Joel was able to point out things you would never notice if walking by yourself, and also knew every bird call. We had a lovely stroll through the Montville village and received a sample box of chocolates. Enjoyed a delicious lunch at The Barn and finished the day with a wine tasting at a winery, then safely delivered back to our accommodation. I would highly recommend Joel’s Journeys Hinterland tour
