Food Trail Tours

A tour with Food Trail Tours is a fun filled, all inclusive, full day gourmet tasting experience from Cairns to the Atherton Tablelands with a focus on growing and processing local food and wine.

The Cairns Highlands has so much to offer and is so diverse. Our coach tour, with Food Trail Tours, was a very special treat.

Finally a trip meeting real Aussies doing real things, and not a T shirt or Didgeridoo in sight.

We had a wonderful day and hope to return next year. Great day, excellent locations, great meal.

Food Trail Tours gave us insights into Australian life which usual sightseeing tours do not.
We know more about Australian life as a result.
