Booked glow worm tour here finally and got our funny and knowledgeable guide Harry 😊 It’s hard to find a guided tour end of the year as we booked quite late, here is highly recommended. The trip is well planned, we explore the rainforest to see sugar glider, spiders, gecko, waterfalls and definitely the glow worms 🦎 Beautiful nature! We also stop for 20 mins to have some coffee ☕️ and lovely mystery cakes 🍰 (recommended)!!! The cafe’s atmosphere is amazing. Harry made the whole trip really enjoyable😜 Wanna say a big thank you at last!

We’ve been to the Gold Coast numerous times on holidays but this was our first time doing the glow worm tour and it was the best!!! So great to see the bush at night and all the wonderful things that live in it. Our guide Duff was amazing and had us laughing throughout our session. Highly recommend experience!!!

We had a great time going on the glow worm tour.
We got picked up from our spot, then drove to have hot chocolate and cake at a place in the mountain then went on our tour.
Got to see lots of animals including a trap door spider, lizards, lots of bugs and of course glow worms.
Our guide Duff was great. Told some jokes and played some pranks which made it enjoyable.
I went with a 7 and 8 year old who enjoyed it.
