Reviews: Cairns Sunlover Reef Cruises 1-day tour [double reef + Ferris wheel/variety show same style/glass bottom boat/diving and snorkeling/buffet lunch/semi-submarine/helicopter sightseeing]
Guest User2026-02-26
It was a great travel experience. The Great Barrier Reef is absolutely beautiful, and the whole trip was smooth and enjoyable. The buffet was delicious, and the helicopter ride was fantastic. The only downside is that seasickness is quite common when going out to sea, so it's best to bring seasickness medication.★

Reviews: Cairns Half Day Tour a Great Barrier Reef Snorkeling Experience
Guest User2026-01-26
I enjoyed the excursion. Everything was well organized, and the crew was attentive. It's an hour's drive to the site, 1.5-2 hours snorkeling, and an hour back. The boat is small and fast. They provide masks, fins, and a swimsuit to protect against jellyfish.★

Reviews: Great Barrier Reef Full Day Tour from Cairns
Guest User2024-09-15
Wife enjoyed the snorkling on the reef .It was her first time. I've done this before ,and in New Caledonia, and Samoa. I think the company could offer a reduced cost for passanger only accompanying a diver as wife wouldn't go by herself . And as couple not both partners want to dive.
