Reviews: Cairns Barron River Rafting half-day tour [hot tea & coffee | optional hotel transfers | adventure game]
Guest User2025-10-22
It's a very suitable rafting trip for beginners. It's also suitable for couples, friends and families. The probability of capsizing is very low. The scenery is beautiful. The biggest regret is that I didn't bring a sports camera to take pictures. It's really too beautiful.★

Reviews: Grand Kuranda including Skyrail and Kuranda Scenic Railway
Guest User2024-07-22
Me and my family took an army duck tour last sunday and we had a really good time. We would like to compliment your new guide Mark. He had really good and interesting comments about nature and wildlife that made the tour fun and enjoyable. We also loved other activities in Kuranda, like the Pamagirri Aboriginal experience. We learned how to throw a boomerang and we enjoyed the presentation of Aboriginal coulture. The scenic Railway had some really good views and the train to Cairns was most enjoyable. Sending love from Slovenia.★

Reviews: Cairns: Ocean Spirit Great Barrier Reef Full Day Tour
Guest User2026-01-15
We had a wonderful snorkeling day overall. The reef was beautiful, the boat was comfortable, and most of the crew were friendly and professional. The equipment, food, and the general organisation of the trip were very good, and we truly enjoyed being out on the water. That’s why this situation was especially disappointing — because it could have been handled so easily with a little care, flexibility, and hospitality. We missed the submarine ticket pick-up at 10am — yes, that part was our mistake. We accept that. But hospitality is not about punishing guests for small mistakes. It is about helping people enjoy the experience they paid for. With 86 passengers onboard, the number of submarine seats should already be known and managed. A simple headcount, a radio call, or a quick announcement asking which guests had not yet collected their tickets would have solved the problem in minutes. This is basic service management. Even better, tickets should simply be handed out during the main p
