Excellent - Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and showed us the Byron Bay lighthouse and there was ample time to explore the town and beach area. Superb. I definitely would recommend.

Great Bus Trip - Picked up at Novotel and embarked on a day tour to Byron Bay. The driver should be on MasterMind or similar show as his knowledge on just about everything was extensive and all the information he had on the areas driving down to Byron was invaluable, definitely a one in a million tour guide. Stopped off at Lighthouse to get some great views and then dropped off at Central Byron to explore and the driver came back in the afternoon to collect us. What a great day and a highly recommended day to book in with this bus company.

Nice day trip - The driver was really informative and helpful with photos. We had lots of time at the lighthouse and the town. Though in total the trip could have been 1-2 h longer for those, who just visit Byron for a day trip. We had to drive back at 4 pm.

Byron Bay day trip by Viator - must visit! - Pleasant day out , must see attraction enjoy the view , the pretty little beach town and of course the beach. Take note that 3 to 4 hours of hanging around the little town center is way too much time unless plan to sunbath, swim or take a hike from the lighthouse all the way down to the beach town center. Overall, it was a fabulous experience with excellent informative guide and I enjoyed the smooth comfortable ride in a clean mini van.

lighthouse and the pathway walk to the rock below awesome - we took the tour from the gold coast .there were only 4 people in the group us and 2 people from japan.neither spoke the others language but the driver conducted a description of what we were to see and the accompanying landscape.the only words were fully understood were byron bay.i really can not fault the driver as we had problems with accents our entire trip.as we have aged our ability to discern accents has decreased.our first stop was the lighthouse .it was a short walk from the parking area to the lighthouse.the driver took our picture and i took some of the views down to the rock.i decided to take the steps down to the rocks below and to a surfing beach which the driver said was there .since i had time i start the walk.what one should realize the a walk down means a walk up steps going down were a lot more difficult coming up.i stop to take pictures and slowly made my was down,so far so good .the tow japanese girls in our group briskly walked by down to the rocks below.i made it as far as i could and i realized i would not make kit down to the rock formation below.i did get a picture of the surfers and one of the girls on the rock formation.oh ot have young legs.i started back but it was a struggle and i was drained .i told the driver guide that there was no was the girls would be back in time.i barely finished my words when they hopped into the van barely winded .next stop the town.i consisted of 3 up streets and 3 cross streets with shop and restaurants lining both sides of the street .the walk start in a drizzle but it turned into a bright sunny day.we had 3 hours to eat and shop.when we were younger 3 hours would only allow us to cover one block but we had no difficulty covering the entire town.the entire had no traffic lights nor did i see crashed cars.hard to believe.we walked to the park and beach and enjoyed the view.my wallet was happy that we did not come to the town 30 years ago as they really had some wonderful shop.we only had lunch and a pastry .this little town was beautiful and worth the one hour ride from the gold coast
