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: Cairns koalas and creatures admission ticket - Cairns Koalas and Creatures at the Pier Ticket
Guest User2025-11-16
The koalas were so cute and I was so happy to be able to hold one. They took photos right on time so there was no wasted time. I thought it would be a zoo-like facility so I went early to look around the facility until it was time to hold one, but the main attraction was holding the koalas and the facility was very small so I finished looking around quickly, so I'm glad I arrived a little before my reservation time. The moment I held the koala, it rubbed against me and became so cute I was so happy. They also took some great photos so I'm glad I went.

Reviews: 40-minute Great Barrier Reef scenic flight in Cairns (with transfers) - GSL Aviation Reef Hopper
Guest User2025-01-15
Very worth seeing the big castle focus, come to Australia must visit, highly recommended, so beautiful! Although the photo can't take the intuitive shock of the big castle focus, it has fallen deeply in my heart and mind. This time due to limited time, snorkeling has not been completed, and I will definitely come to Cairns next time I have a chance! Trip.com Customer service reply is very timely, so that guests who don't know the local area feel secure and secure, highly recommended 👍👍👍
