Port Macquarie is one of those places where the pace slows the moment you arrive. Set on the beautiful NSW Mid North Coast, this seaside town offers fresh ocean air, calm river views and welcoming country charm.
Our Port Macquarie Coach Tour is four easy days of sea air, river views, wildlife encounters, shared meals, and friendly conversations. A true Port Macquarie getaway where every detail is thoughtfully arranged for a smooth journey.
If you’ve been thinking about a short break that mixes nature, history, and local flavour, this might be just the change of scenery you need.
Why Choose a Port Macquarie Getaway
Port Macquarie is well known for its beaches and seaside lifestyle, but there is much more waiting just beyond the shoreline.
Across four comfortable days, you will experience:
A Hastings River estuary lunch cruise
A guided tour of the Koala Hospital
Historic St Thomas’ Anglican Church
Strawberry picking at Ricardoes Tomatoes and Strawberries
Animal encounters at Billabong Zoo
A winery tour and tasting at Cassegrain Wines
Coastal views from Tacking Point Lighthouse
It’s the kind of coastal holiday that appeals to couples, friends travelling together and small groups who want everything organised and taken care of.
If you would like to learn more about the area, visit Port Macquarie Tourism, which highlights the natural beauty that makes this town such a favourite.
Hastings River Estuary Lunch Cruise
There is no better way to appreciate Port Macquarie than from the water.
The Hastings River lunch cruise offers a gentle change of pace. Sit back with a meal, enjoy the breeze and watch the riverbanks drift by. The Hastings River is a central part of the region’s identity, linking farmland, town and coastline.
Koala Hospital Guided Tour
A visit to the Koala Hospital is often a highlight for our travellers.
On our guided tour, you will hear about the dedication behind the scenes, the rehabilitation efforts and the quiet success stories that help protect one of Australia’s most loved native animals. You can learn more about their conservation work at the official Koala Hospital Port Macquarie.
It is an opportunity to get close to these iconic animals while supporting an important cause.
A Step Back in Time at St Thomas’ Anglican Church
History lives in Port Macquarie.
St Thomas’ Anglican Church is one of Australia’s oldest surviving churches, built by convicts in the early 1800s. Walking through its doors feels like stepping into another chapter of New South Wales history.
With a local guide sharing the stories behind the stonework, this visit adds depth and meaning to your coastal escape.
Fresh Produce at Ricardoes
There is plenty of joy in simple things, like picking strawberries straight from the vine.
At Ricardoes Tomatoes and Strawberries, you will have the chance to fill a punnet with sweet berries and sample fresh local produce. It’s a relaxed afternoon stop that brings a taste of the region home with you.
Wildlife Encounters at Billabong Zoo
Our visit to Billabong Zoo gives you time to wander, learn and enjoy close encounters with both native and exotic animals.
From koalas and red pandas to snow leopards and meerkats, the zoo offers engaging keeper talks that suit travellers of all ages. It’s a great stop for travellers looking to enjoy a relaxed, interactive wildlife experience together.
A Taste of the Region at Cassegrain Wines
No visit to Port Macquarie feels complete without time spent among the vines. At Cassegrain Wines, French heritage meets the character of the Mid North Coast, creating a cellar door experience that is both welcoming and memorable.
A guided winery experience offers insight into the family story behind the label and the craft that shapes each vintage. The tasting is relaxed and unhurried, with time to appreciate the flavours, ask questions and simply enjoy the setting.
Surrounded by leafy grounds and rolling vineyards, it is a peaceful way for you to spend an afternoon and a genuine taste of the region.
