Awesome 1-day Fraser island trip. - It was great. Really enjoyed it. Saw two dingos, sea Eagles and a myriad of other birds.
Lake Mackenzie was amazing. The water was pristine.
Bring crocs or suitable footwear as the sand gets hot. Lots of sunscreen and a hat, best of all cover up.
You need short shorts to cross Eli Creek.
The guides are very friendly.

fascinating tour of K’gari island - We had a fabulous time on our tour!! It was a beautiful place to visit. We enjoyed the sights and especially the lake. Our tour guides Jeff and Pete were highly focused careful drivers, who took every precaution that we had a safe and comfortable ride. We were so lucky that they pointed out birds, insects and dingos along the way and we even spotted dolphin. The best part was the humorous bus ride! Great job guys

Loved it. - We day trip was what we initially thought not enough time to see K gari, however the trip packed in what ypu needed to see and feel. Our driver pothole Pete was great.
We where lucky enough on the last stop to jump into an unplanned 15min flight around the island.
Fantastic amd memorable day.

Fantastic trip with a great company - Fantastic tour. Pete the tour guide was professional, friendly and made the experience what it was.
Visited enough locations to get a feel of the island and due to Pete's prompt planning we were never waiting for anything.
The food is sufficient and fresh and of a good standard.
Would recommend this company to anybody wanting to visit the island.
If your lucky you may also get Pete as your guide.
Thank you

Good enough to do again! - The sites we explored were AMAZING, all held up to expectations and exceeded. The guides were great too, the local knowledge was really interesting
Beyond the soft sand on the beach making the trip a bit tedious I’d still book a return trip

Nice. - 4WD on an island in a bus, swimming in lake McKenzie and Eli Creek, shipwreck Maheno, flora and fauna of the island and the wild view - fun but much on the bus and swimming is the only relaxation
