Your Travel Itinerary
Pick-Up from Brisbane
Your day kicks off with an easy central Brisbane pick-up. From the moment you meet your friendly guides, the vibe is relaxed and upbeat—setting the tone for the adventure ahead.
Arriving at Bribie Island
As you cross the bridge onto Bribie, you’ll feel like you’ve landed somewhere completely different. Think pristine beaches, untouched bushland and wide-open coastal views—this is where the fun begins.
Off-Road 4WD Adventure
Hold on tight! You’ll jump straight into an epic 4WD experience, bouncing along rugged bush tracks, cruising remote stretches of sand and enjoying panoramic beach views. Keep your eyes peeled for kangaroos, goannas, eagles—and if the season’s right, maybe even dolphins or turtles gliding along the shoreline.
Tea-Tree Lagoons
Next up, you’ll discover Bribie’s famous tea-tree-stained lagoons. Their amber waters, coloured naturally by surrounding trees, make the perfect spot for a refreshing swim. Your guides also bring along two stand-up paddleboards to share, so you can glide across the calm waters and enjoy the peaceful setting—or have a laugh trying it out with new mates.
Beach Time
After the thrill of 4WDrivng, it’s time to slow things down. Whether you’re up for a swim, a bit of sunbaking, or just chilling with the sea breeze in your hair, your guides will take you to a hidden stretch of Bribie’s coast to relax and recharge.
