Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Simply Amazing
    Amazing tour loved every bit of it, Fabian and Scott our guides/crew were fantastic so much fun and extremely knowledgeable, made the tour so much more enjoyable. The outer reefs filled with beautiful tropical fish and coral and Whitehaven Beach pristine and breathtaking so lucky to have this at our fingertips. Food was super delicious too, well worth going this such an expensive! 🤩🐠💛

    A day at Whitsundays.
    Trip was amazing and the crew were helpful and friendly. Snorkelling was nice to do, a pity about the visibility because of coral spawning. Beach at White Haven was just absolutely beautiful. All in all a good day out with a good crew.

    One of the best day trips you can do in the Whitsundays! Stunning scenery, great hosts, just a beautiful relaxing day.
    This cruise is one of the best day trips you can do in the Whitsundays! Being adults only means it's really relaxing, the boat is beautiful and historic, and the sailing is thrilling! You can take a short walk up some stairs on one of the islands to get a breathtaking view of the Whitsundays (or explore the beach), and then you head on to snorkelling, where you'll see all kinds of beautiful tropical fish! We had one person in our party with celiac disease, and Kobi was so caring and thorough in making sure they always had something to eat, and that there wasn't any gluten cross contamination. They all really went above and beyond, and it was such a beautiful, memorable day! I couldn't recommend this trip more.

    Amazing way to celebrate with friends!
    Went on a half day cruise with Wings to celebrate my 50th birthday with13 off my friends. Amy, Mick & Rajon were all fantastic, both before & during the cruise. We ask had a relaxing time sailing out to our mooring spot & then had an absolute back with the in water activities - even people who weren’t going to go in the water were in there. Everyone went out of their way to make sure we had a great time, taking photos & tailoring lunch around our activities. The sail back in with the sunset was amazing. Definitely a day to remember & we are all still talking about how much fun we had! Thank you!

    THE highlight of our Australia vacation!!!
    We (2 adults and 2 kids) spent two days and nights on Milady with two fantastic hosts: Vicky and Kyrian. This time was definitely THE highlight of our 3-week Australia vacation. The cabin was very clean and comfortable, the boat simply beautiful! Vicky and Kyrian did everything to make our stay unforgettable: professional skipper with who we always felt safe, fantastic food and "lessons" regarding the nature, history, guided tour on Whitehaven Beach, snorkling and whale watching! Far more than we expected! And everything in such a nice and welcoming atmosphere! If we once come back to Whitsundays, we will be definitely back on Milady! Thank you, Vicky and Kyrian, for such an unforgettable experience! Karolina, Adam, Bruno and Max

    Breathtaking boat experience with George encounter
    This was an amazing experience! We saw everything on offer at airline beach in just one trip . We saw loads of turtles, whales and the fish life and coral snorkeling were incredible. Our crew Kayla and Simon were highly knowledgeable making sure our trip was very comfortable taking into account the wind and sea conditions. This meant they altered the itinerary slightly so we would sleep overnight in quiet bays. Simon was an expert skipper and maximized the sailing opportunities. Kayla had expert knowledge of the reef and marine life. George and Georgina (giant Māori wrasse) were a highlight. Food on board catered to dietary requirements and hot showers after the snorkeling meant we could optimize the time on the reef.
