Reviews: Brisbane Moreton Island 1-day tour [optional dolphin watching and dolphin feeding | choose 1 of 5 | Moreton Island]
Guest User2026-10-22
It was a bad day, but it didn't dampen our spirits at all for whale watching and feeding wild dolphins. Although the whales didn't leap perfectly out of the water, only their backs and tails were visible, the dolphin feeding experience was fantastic. It was my first time being so close to them, and it made me realize how beautiful it is to see humans and animals living in harmony. If we had more time, staying overnight on Moreton Island would have been even better.

Reviews: OceanRafting Whitsunday Islands Heart Reef sightseeing/South route/North route 1-day tour
Guest User2026-10-30
A truly perfect day trip experience! A sightseeing flight in the morning, and a speedboat ride to White Beach in the afternoon. We were lucky enough to see the heart-shaped reef on a sunny day before the rain started. The speedboat ride was a lot of fun; crew member Gary was humorous and took great care of everyone, and another beautiful crew member, Abby, was also incredibly kind. I forgot the captain's name, but he was very responsible. White Beach was absolutely gorgeous; we even had seagulls scrambling for food during lunchtime!

Reviews: Cairns Green Island Great Barrier Reef Big Cat half-day tour snorkeling/glass bottom boat
Guest User2026-10-27
I signed my father up for the trip. He's 63 and traveling alone, and he was completely satisfied with the itinerary. He had a perfect snorkeling experience, truly felt the beauty of Green Island, and the crew took excellent care of him, even checking on his physical condition before the snorkeling session.

Reviews: [Price match guarantee | free koala holding] Cairns Sunlover Great Barrier Reef cruise 1-day tour
Guest User2026-02-26
It was a great travel experience. The Great Barrier Reef is absolutely beautiful, and the whole trip was smooth and enjoyable. The buffet was delicious, and the helicopter ride was fantastic. The only downside is that seasickness is quite common when going out to sea, so it's best to bring seasickness medication.

Reviews: Cairns Reef Magic Great Barrier Reef 1-day tour with meals | helicopter/diving/snorkeling
Guest User2026-09-10
The entire Great Barrier Reef trip was very fulfilling, and the crew's service was excellent. Remember to check in for the helicopter as soon as you board; we were among the first to check in. We took the helicopter once we reached the outer reef. The weather wasn't great on the way there, but it cleared up when we took the helicopter, and the colors of the Great Barrier Reef were truly beautiful. The food on board was also quite good (especially the fruit, which was very good; I felt a bit dizzy at the time, and the fruit made me feel much better). There was some free bread on the ship on the way there and back. Before leaving, all the crew members would stand in a row to say goodbye. You definitely have to take a helicopter trip! Unfortunately, I didn't go snorkeling, but my wife and child went into the water. They said they could see fish underwater, and I took picture 2 from the bottom glass of the ship. The helicopter registration staff on the ship spoke Chinese, and there were also other staff who spoke Chinese, which was great. If you want to try other submarine activities, you can check the ship's schedule and arrange your own time accordingly. Just go and queue up when it's time. Each activity is located in a different area on the ship. Also, please note that you should wear a light swimsuit. The rash guard on the boat is necessary if you're going during the summer holidays; it might be a little chilly without one, but it will be just right. There are plenty of rash guards available in different sizes. You don't need to bring your own fins, snorkel, or goggles; there are plenty. I only brought my own goggles and snorkel. If you're concerned about hygiene, you can bring your own snorkel. The lockers on the boat are small, so just grab something convenient to pack your things. Generally, no one uses them; everyone's busy enjoying themselves.
