Do this tour early in your visit. - We had a really fabulous time. Having never been to Airlie Beach before the tour was a great opportunity to orient ourselves to get a sense of what we might like to visit again. We were shown lots of gorgeous sights and a couple of out of the way places, which was terrific. I couldn’t fault the tour.

A chance to leave your room and learn what there is to love about Airlie - jump on - What a great chance to pop around the local spots of Airlie Beach with our host who knows and loves the region - so much trivia shared, and laughs. A great afternoon to see points many of the locals may not even know about. We went on our first day arriving so it was great to get all the secrets so we could make the most of our 5 days in town. I would thoroughly recommend this trip for anyone coming to Airlie who has just a couple of hours or who wants to get out of the room and not necessarily spend time on the water :-)

Best of Airlie - For first visit to Airlie I recommend doing this tour on the first day. Charlene is a fantastic driver & guide who took us all over Airlie & Shute Harbour. The tour was informative and helpful as we were able to work out restaurants etc to visit. She took us to great private & public viewing points so we could admire the beauty of this special place. Charlene always went out of her way to make sure we thoroughly enjoyed our experience!

DO THIS TOUR with Cherene. Driftwood tours. Best 2.5 hours to see Airlie - Cherene is the ultimate tour guide. Running her own business (go girl!) you get the personal touch, off the track viewing points, information and insights. My hubby has arthritis, and Cherene couldn't have helped him more with getting on and off the bus, seat belt etc. Went to lovely local places we would never have known about, and ended up at a gorgeous pub on the water where we shared time, talks and a drink (own cost). She was well aware of our need to be back for our tender to go back to the cruise ship. Defo do this tour-great value and very informative.
