We are so excited to be hosting two fantastic progressive foodie tours as part of this years Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers. That’s two great chances to sample some of the best dining Toowoomba has to offer.

Both tours include your bus travel to each destination with our friends at Stonestreets Travel, 3 courses of delicious food and a couple of matched wines along the way. What’s not to love?
