My boyfriend and I are looking at this tour, his daughter is 11, 12 in July. Is it possible to bring her on the tour

All tours have a minimum age requirement of 12 years old. We can only make exceptions for children of at least 11 years old and 9 months at the time of traveling

What is the single supplement?

As a solo traveller, you will have two options: Pay the twin/double price and be paired up to share with another solo traveller of the same gender. Or pay the twin/double price on the website and pay an additional 2199.00 USD and get your own room, subject to availability.

Is it possible to arrange pre-accommodation in Cairns from 31st December 2025 to 1st January 2026?

Yes, we can offer pre tour accommodation in Cairns for 115.00 EUR, however it will be on a request basis as it is New Years Eve, so may take a few days for our local office to confirm availability.

What are the group sizes for the tour?

Group sizes vary, but tours are typically designed to foster a small group experience.

Is there any chance you might open more dates in April? I was thinking something at the first week of April?

Unfortunately we will not open any more dates for 2025 as these have been set and finalised.

Can I request a single room?

Single rooms can be requested and are subject to additional charges and availability.

I would like to ask you for an offer: Travellers: 1 adult + my daughter (then 18) and my twins (then 15) Travel period: Summer holidays July / August Duration: Max. 21 days or 23 days including departure and arrival Request: 3 days in Sydney Route Cairns-Brisbane or Brisbane-Cairns Possibly Uluru Focus: Animal world (koalas, kangaroos and the like) Aquatic animal world: whales (Port Douglas?) and possibly snorkeling? (No diving) Culture (Aboriginal experience? and dot painting and didgeridoo) Type of travel: Motorhome or rental car / cheap accommodation with 4-bed room Budget: Low, for flights / rental car / campgrounds or accommodation 11,000 euros Group trips conceivable, but probably too expensive

We are a tour company and are unable to put together bespoke itineraries.

What type of accommodations are available on the tour?

Accommodations are based on twin-sharing. Single supplements are available but subject to additional charges.

How can I make a payment for the tour?

Payments can be made through the 'book now' button on our website. Various credit cards are accepted.
