What people love about Brisbane to Cairns Tours
- Oz East Coast Adventure 20 days
Overall the tour was brilliant! It was so well organised and travel timetables usually matched up perfectly. Sometimes it was a bit annoying that we were waiting around to check in to hostels but when we asked at the desk the rooms were ready. It would have been better to be able to just check in straight away. I am also unsure if we needed to go to Mission Beach even though I did the skydive. There is very little there and another night in Brisbane/Noosa would have been much better.
- Brisbane to Cairns Experience: Sand Dunes & the Whitsundays
Best holiday experience of my life so far
- Brisbane to Daintree Rainforest - 9 Day Boutique Tour
I throughly enjoyed my tour from Brisbane to Cairns. The group was mixed ages and all were great company. The tour took in all the best bits of the journey north with the whitsunday islands being my favourite, there’s plenty of free time and Justin our guide was great fun. Definitely recommend and will be looking for another tour down under soon.
