Day trip wine tasting and more! - Great day out wine tasting. The hop on / hop off worked well for us. It enabled us to take I additional sites.
Terry, our tour bus driver, was wealth of knowledge and went out of his way to make it a fantastic day for us

Definitely worth the money. - Michelle is a very good tour guide. She explained the trip from the beginning and interacted with everyone on the tour. I would take another one with her as a guide

Content okay, dragged down by disorganization. - The tour company tries to do three separate tours in the same bus, which does not really work. The tour listings/itineraries are not clear or consistent. The guides/drivers have on their phones who is signed up for what, but it isn't really clear.
The scenery is beautiful. The Witches Falls wine tasting was wonderful, and their wines were excellent. (Others in our group also enjoyed the beers from the adjacent brewery too.) Lunch at St Bernard Inn was also wonderful. We were not able to visit the distillery listed in the itinerary.
The hop-on, hop-off aspect did not work for us. We spent time waiting for the bus or the van criss-crossing that would have been better spent sightseeing or at another winery/distillery/brewery.
I understand the tour company wanting to diversify and maximize their tour offerings, but this did not work well for most participants. If they want to run one vehicle up the mountain for both a wine tasting/tour and general sightseeing, that could work, but the driver/guide should make clear on the way up (both 90 minute drive from Brisbane and 45 minute drive from Gold Coast would allow 5 of those minutes to break down the day's agenda) that those who are doing the wine tasting will be making the following stops with this van/driver and those doing the hiking, falls, and shopping will make those other stops. The hybrid plan wasn't really an option.
The shops at the end were mostly worthless and seemed just to be a filler.

Messy, confusing and lack of communication! - During this holiday, I’ve taken several tours similar to this one and definitely this once not the best. Our driver, Anthony, was sweet and trying his best but he told us that he has been in the company only for 6 week and he was trying to find his way, which it showed. Tour itself was confusing, there were many tours inside the tour, some doing some activities, others doing others, even people of two different buses got mixed up for some activities. Which is ok, but there was zero communication from the drivers, zero explanation of what was going on, or itineraries. At the first winery, there were merely waiters serving the wine, saying basic things about them and leaving. They were definitely not experts, they were just serving us. A couple bought some crackers from the restaurant and they brought them in the same package they got them from the supermarket :( not even place on a plate. Lunch was also confusing, driver kept saying that it was a pub with “pub food” but at the end it was a proper restaurant and he then said that actually it was his first time taking a group there. Bottom line, company try to take advantage of one tour to sell many other different ones that it becomes a bit messy. My positive input it’s the wonderful group of people I met. Other than that, I’ll recommend to look for another company.

Not what was expected - Our first driver from the Hotel to Tamborine Mountain was knowledgeable. The second driver of the late bus we were transferred to was timetable-focused only and did not care about us. We booked with Tripadvisor, but according to Pineapple Tours, we did not get lunch, a cheese plate or a fudge tasting even though it was in the promotion. Yet we paid 155.00 per person. So, you only get a bus ride from the Gold Coast to Tamborine Mountain, one real wine tasting and the second one was sitting in a restaurant and waiting for a waiter to bring over a wine. The visit to the distillery was an additional cost, and we had to find it by walking. If you need a ride to the Mountain, take an Uber.
