Brilliant!!!!! Fantastic Day - What a brilliant day!!! Remote Fraser tour with group of 8. Perfectly executed tour!!! Staff were incredible!!!! We were a group by ourselves, the other guests were a large group of international students. The staff made sure we went on the first boat to each activity to ensure we were not overwhelmed by the group of students. This allowed us the solitude of our own group at each activity! What foresight by the staff!!! Amazing whale watching and immersion with the whales! 2 of our group had dietary restrictions and were well catered for with lovely snacks and lunch. I would have given these guys a 10 star rating! It was the perfect day! Thank you skipper and team!!!

Fantastic adventure - A wonderful day! The crew is great -- they kept an eye on our comfort and safety and provided heaps of great information about the area and the wildlife. We saw many whales, and the skipper spent some extra time in the afternoon because we were close to a family pod swimming around the boat. Really amazing. Never got seasick, and the lunch was delicious. They kindly accommodated food preferences. Especially enjoyed meeting Jimbo and Hannah -- lovely crew with a genuine kindness for their guests. Water was available to refill your water bottle, and the entire day was well organized. Bring warm coats for the boat ride in the winter. Bathrooms are big enough for changing clothes but you'll likely keep your swimsuit on all day.

You can't get to know K'Gari better - Whether kayaking, hiking on the beach and through the mangrove forest, dune climbing, snorkeling or election observation - everything was well organized and we were super looked after. We even kayaked and hiked twice. Simply recommended!!

Full fun day! - Great crew and full day of activities. It was nice that the Captain pivoted the schedule when he noticed to whales on the horizon. Though not part of the program we headed that way and the 2 humpbacks put on quite a show. Reese and Katherine were great as well! thanks for the fun day.

Ashamed - Ashamed ! Cancels your reservation for supposedly windy weather. We also live by the sea, and the North Sea, so we know the sailing conditions, and they were good, especially with their fleets. They warn you 1 hour in advance, there is no way to turn around to find another service provider. No respect for the tourists who come from long distances specifically for Fraser.
