Reviews/Trip Moments

Reviews: Cairns hot air balloon ride with sunrise views - 40–60 min flight experience (includes taxes + optional hotel transfers)
Guest User2025-11-04
It was better than I expected! It was my first time to ride a hot air balloon, and the view was truly spectacular. I was glad I participated because I was able to see wild animals like wallabies and horses, and I would definitely participate again if I ever come to Cairns. It was also great that I was able to enjoy myself right up until the last moment before I left! I was grateful that they took me to the airport. A Japanese person was there the whole time, explaining everything to me, so I was able to participate with peace of mind. They also communicated with me via SMS right up until the last moment before the trip, which made things go smoothly on the day. Thank you very much!
Reviews: Tully River Full-Day Rafting: Cairns, Mission Beach or Self-Drive
Guest User2024-06-09
While the rapids were Class 4 and Class 3, and there were tons of them all down the river (Making this by far the best rafting in my life!!!), the whole experience was CLASS 7!!! Our boat Guides Mezza and Aoife were both spectacular!!! The other Guides were also very cool and knowledgeable, including Andy who gave our bus our training! The Tully River is super-beautiful and natural, with a World Heritage Site on one side and a National Park on the other! The water was cool and refreshing and fun to swim in (not too cold), and the food and drink at the Felluga Hotel afterwards was awesome, plus we got to see the photos in a slideshow with the people from our boat as well as thank our Boat Guides! I recommend buying the photos - a good deal for over 100 high-quality photos of our adventure!
Reviews: Cairns Reef Magic 1-day tour [Reef Magic/Helicopter/Scuba Diving/Includes Buffet Lunch/Unlimited Snorkeling]
Guest User2026-02-22
It was a great day out! The crew were super organised and friendly, they were also very patient with the dozens of tourists who didn’t speak much English. It’s a big boat with a couple hundred tourists, so be prepared for that. Lunch was great! We had a great day out and snorkelling on the reef was just incredible.

Great trip. Just confusing in the booking a little as to whether lunch or not included.
Reviews: Full-Day Great Barrier Reef Sailing Trip from Cairns
Guest User2024-10-01
The places in the reef that were chosen were absolutely breathtaking! It was like swimming in an aquarium there were so many fish. The coral Was stunning and diverse. A very competent crew and skipper Makayla!! Recommend this small group tour over the larger groups for sure!!!
