Day 1:
Depart on your rail journey to Central Queensland & the Southern Great Barrier Reef. On arrival in Rockhampton you will be greeted by our friendly staff and transferred to Yeppoon for a enjoyable evening meal. After dinner, take your time to relax and enjoy that cuppa or glass of wine on your private balcony whilst listening to the ocean and local wildlife.
Day 2:
After a tasty breakfast, we visit Shell World and view over 10,000 exotic shells before taking in the sights of Bluff Rock and the beauty of the Causeway Lake. Morning tea will be at the Singing Ship (it really sings). From this picturesque vantage point we will wander down to the stunning tribute and impressive art works of Emu Park's War Memorial. After a delicious dinner Wayne will entertain us with 50's, 60's & 70's songs
Day 3:
After a hot breakfast we set out to explore the rich architectural heritage of Rockhampton - The Walter Reid Building, Customs House, City Hall, The Heritage Hotel and Arch Park Station, where statues talk and sing. Learn about trams that travelled from Paris to Rockhampton while enjoying that cuppa. Tonight Bob Pacey our Bush Poet will entertain us with funny, hilarious yarns.
Day 4:
After a tasty breakfast we head north to discover Byfield National Park and the rare Byfield Fern, which only grows in this area. The beauty of the area will astound you, the rugged mountains, rainforest edged creeks and ancient cycads are not to missed and we also visit Nob Creek Pottery. After morning tea we will discover how the leaves of a Melaleuca Tree are transferred into Tree Oil at Eco Water Park Station. Marvel at the birdlife, say hello to Henry the tortoise and learn all about nature at its best. Dinner tonight is with Country & Western singer Ken Jones - one of the best!
Day 5:
Today, experience a world class adventure in Central Queensland as you drive via Lake Mary, take in the wetlands and see swans, storks, ducks and a multitude of aquatic birds on the way to Olsens's Caves. You’ll then view the awe-inspiring Cathedral Cave, learn about geological history, early explorers and special cave acoustics (wheelchair friendly), and have lunch at a county pub.
Day 6:
Enjoy a light continental breakfast before being transferred back to Rockhampton to catch the Tilt Train back to Brisbane.
