K’Gari tour

Well organised day. Comfortable bus considering the rough sandy roads of the island. Lovely morning tea and lunch. Our tour guide Butch was very informative a great driver and kept us up to date with the days events. We even were lucky enough to see lots of Dingoes. Great day out.

Daintree Rainforest and Cape Tribulation Full Day Tour

Asanka_F, Jun 2026

Awesome day out in the Daintree

This is an excellent full day tour of the Daintree region. The pickup from Billy yea safaris was spot on time from the esplanade. The driver cum tour guide Rohan was very organised , friendly and excellent in his knowledge and commentary . I went on a day that was seeing a bit of rain and still enjoyed so don’t be afraid of a little rain as it’s a rain forest after all. On the river cruise we saw a few crocs including a couple of babies lying on branches. The food from the restaurant for lunch was good, I had a beer for $11 a bit pricy but that’s a personal choice. The water creek to swim at is awesome, crystal clear emerald water. Even if it overcast if u come prepared do take the plunge it’s with it. Overall an amazing and very satisfying time had with great company!!!

Chillagoe Caves and Outback Day Trip from Cairns

Pam_J, Jun 2026

Chillagoe trip

This tour was excellent. Rohan, our guide, provided us with lots of information about our destinations and what would happen at each stop. He also knew when to be quiet so we could nap on our way back from Chillagoe to Mereba. The itinerary was well planned. We had a long drive to Chillagoe but stopped for morning tea. We went to the caves and then had lunch. Activities were planned near Chillagoe. We visited the smelter ruins, balancing rock and Aboriginal Rock Art. All these involved short walks. We then travelled back to Cairns, stopping at Granite Gorge. This broke the journey and was a wonderful place to hand feed rock wallabies. The morning tea and lunch were both excellent. Skyberry Cafe was really nice and lunch was served in a typical outback pub at Chillagoe. I was very happy with the guide, the tour itself and the places we visited.

Pinnacles Sunset Stargazing Dinner Experience Small Group Tour

Glen_L, Jun 2026

Perfect tour guide, imperfect weather

Annaliese was an amazing and patient tour guide. She was driven and fun to listen and follow. Unfortunately the weather was the only thing bad as the clouds covered quite a bit of the stars we could’ve seen but that is out of the guide’s control. The dinner was simple but refreshing and lovely. Definitely recommend to all who wish to view more of Western Australia’s beauty.

Linda_R, May 2026

A very enjoyable tour

A small group makes for a more personalized experience, and the reverse itinerary helps avoid the crowds. Our tour guide Patric was knowledgeable, welcoming and simply amazing. Besides taking us to all the planned spots along the way, he also helped us spot koala and roos, and patiently answered all our questions. I highly recommend this tour.

Bruny Island - Tassie Tours

Don’t miss this tour! Visiting gourmet food shops & stunning natural environments; The Neck and a walk in a rainforest was special as well as the landmarks such as Cape Bruny lighthouse. Shout out to our Amazing Guide JODIE. Her enthusiasm and knowledge about the Island, especially the wildlife was inspiring and she found 6 white wallabies for us !! We were entertained the entire day. Thanku .

Kuranda Scenic Railway Day Trip from Cairns

Sharon_A, May 2026

Fantastic day

Amazing full day, very well organised. Memories for life. Would totally recommend taking the train on the way there and skyrail on the way back. Birdland, butterflies and the koala were great activities. Staff at all places were excellent. If travelling with a person who is less able there is a bit of a walk between train station and the village. We got an Uber which was really easy.

North Stradbroke Island WILDLIFE Adventure Tour from Brisbane

Raymond_D, Apr 2026

Beautiful nature tour that exceeded our expectations!

This was the small-group tour that exceeded our expectations! Our guide, Rio, was excellent. He picked us up in the city and took us in a comfortable van to the ferry terminal in Cleveland. Once there, we boarded the ferry for a quick 25-minute trip out to Stradbroke Island. When we arrived, Rio brought us to an identical van that he then used to show us many of the highlights (including some of his favorite “hidden” spots) of the island. We had an entire Australia experience in just one day, as we had the chance to enjoy multiple beautiful beaches, walk along some great nature trails, see koalas, kangaroos and turtles and explore the area. We had plenty of time at each stop, and never felt hurried. When the day was over, Rio brought us back to the ferry terminal for a quick ferry ride back to Cleveland, and then back to our city drop-off point. We would highly recommend this tour, guide and company! Extra bonus: Rio has a great playlist for our drive time in the vans.

Kangaroo Island in a Day Tour from Adelaide

Valerie_C, Mar 2026

KI fun day

Very very long day but jampacked with amazing sights & wildlife on KI (Kangaroo Island). A lovely island with spectacular scenery on the southern coast at Remarkable Rocks & Admiral Arch. Saw echidnas, kangaroos, Australian sea lions, black fur seals & eagles in the wild. Well worth the 16 hour day. Our guide was wonderful & very knowledgeable

Rottnest Island Round-Trip Ferry from Perth

Rosalie_M, Jan 2026

Enjoyed the day on the island

Picked up the tickets the day before as the tour operator was very busy on the morning of the tour. Long queue to get on. Limited outside seating on the ferry and limited upstairs seating inside. Staff very friendly on the ferry. Great views along the river and commentary was informative. Island lovely to walk around plenty to see and do for the long day.
