Family Adventure at The Ginger Factory in Yandina

Located in Yandina, Queensland, The Ginger Factory offers an engaging day-trip ideal for families craving a blend of entertainment and local history. The Play All Day Bundle invites visitors to immerse themselves in the outdoor charms of this unique destination through two standout attractions: the historic Moreton ginger train and the whimsical Overboard boat ride.

Board the Moreton, a 120-year-old ginger train, for unlimited rides circling the lush, vibrant gardens and grounds. This open-air carriage journey moves at a gentle pace, allowing riders to absorb the natural setting and learn about Yandina’s pivotal role in Australia’s ginger industry. The surrounding gardens showcase native flora alongside cultivated crops, creating a scenic backdrop that appeals to all ages.

Operating from morning until late afternoon, both rides offer flexibility and repeated enjoyment—perfect for families wanting to move at their own pace.
