The festive season is here, the sun is shining, and the open road is calling. Christmas in Far North Queensland is all about adventure – from rainforest escapes to coastal drives and mountain climbs. To celebrate, we asked our Pacific Toyota team where they’d take their favourite Toyota this holiday season. Their answers are guaranteed to inspire your next trip!
For Tom, Christmas is the perfect time to unleash the GR Yaris.
Imagine powering up the famous Gillies Range, a ribbon of road made for drivers who love every corner and climb. At the top, the Atherton Tablelands greet you with rolling green hills and fresh mountain air.
Tom’s first stop? The Lake Barrine Tea House, where coffee and cake come with a view across a volcanic crater lake. Performance meets serenity – the best of both worlds.
Jack’s holiday dream is to go north – way north.
With the legendary LandCruiser Prado, he’d cross the Daintree River and dive deep into World Heritage rainforest. His adventure would include exploring hidden tracks, cooling off on a waterfall hike, and soaking in the pure magic of the tropics.
For Jack, it’s not just about the drive – it’s about being able to go further, discover more, and make memories in a place unlike anywhere else on earth.
Ashlee’s choice is all about balance: comfort, style, and adventure rolled into one.
She’d take the RAV4 south to Mission Beach, where white sands and palm-fringed shores set the scene for a perfect day.
Lunch at a beachside restaurant, a walk along the sand, then a slow scenic drive back through the rainforest. And if she’s lucky, spotting a cassowary along the way – the ultimate Mission Beach encounter.
For Anthony, Christmas means heading off the beaten path with the unstoppable Hilux.
His plan? A camping trip to the rugged beauty of Granite Gorge, where striking boulders and wildlife create a truly unique escape.
To top it off, he’d swing by the iconic Skybury Café – famous for its sweeping views over the Tablelands and rich locally grown coffee. It’s the kind of adventure the Hilux was built for: tough, versatile, and unforgettable.
Aaron prefers a city Christmas – but with style.
He’d take the sleek and sporty CH-R for a day out on the Cairns Esplanade, stopping at all the best foodie and cultural spots. From fresh tropical produce at Rusty’s Markets to browsing the Cairns Art Gallery, it’s a day that blends flavour, creativity, and energy.
The CH-R fits right in – bold, stylish, and made for turning heads.
Whether it’s rainforest hikes, mountain drives, or beachside escapes, our team proves there’s a Toyota for every Christmas adventure. Where will your Toyota take you this holiday season?
