One of the most passionate people I've ever met! So enthusiastic. He made the tour! He knew everything you needed to know about the island. Just gutted he wasn't on our first day. Also when you get to the kingfisher resort, you need to find the hot tub lol!! More

This was definitely one of the highlights of my Australian trip. The 3 day tour was amazing, we had 24 on our bus for the first 2 days but on the last day there was only 7 left which was a shame considering the 3 day is proberbly the best. Lake wabby is so beautiful it's such a contrast between... More

When I first got off the Ferry to Fraser Island and I saw that we would be traveling around the island for 2 days on a bus I was not very excited. But then we went in the pink bus with Martin and we chose him as our tour guide for the 2 days. It was me and 3 other... More

I did the 2 day/1 night tour over Easter weekend. The bus (more like a tank, it's HUGE) was full with around 40 people, but not packed or uncomfortable. I would say Day 2 is far more interesting/action packed than the first day. Day 1 is spent primarily walking in the forest from Point A to Point B and you... More

We booked our tour at the last minute so didn't do much research beforehand. I turned up to be complete opposite to what we initially wanted (big 4x4 bus, group of 20 people rather than a small 4x4 car and a small group) the weather was horrible, raining most of the time but this turned up to be the best...

This is a really great tour. Me and my brother really enjoyed it. We booked it in Cairns. We bought 2 day/1 night tour and I think we paid approx. $280 per pax. The tour guide at Fraser Island was a great guy who was highly knowledgable about the island. The accomodation was cool. However, we stayed in dorm, but... More
