What people are saying about Far North Queensland

Amazing day on the reefs! The crew was informative and attentive. Great cultural experience in the water with the marine biologist and aboriginal guide doing a “point” and tell around the reef. We went to Hastings Reef then Saxon and were in each spot for around 90 minutes. There were delicious breakfast sandwiches on arrival, plenty of lunch options, and even an afternoon snack. Only weird thing was I thought we were on the reef magic boat and turns out this get your guide booking had us on the Dream Time boat. Confusing for a second but we had a small group and I’m very glad we ended up with Dream Time!

Fue una grata experiencia y es algo que no se deber perder si va a Cairns. El trayecto hasta el pontón es de aproximadamente 45 min y para quienes no estamos acostumbrados a navegar, se pueden sentir vomitos o mareos, pero dura poco. Todo el equipo para snorkel y buceo te lo entregan ellos y están todas las facilidades para pasar una buena salida. También tienen un bote más chico con fondo transparente para ver los corales. Tienen incluido un buffet de comida con varias opciones. Y el personal, está siempre dispuesto a atender cualquier necesidad. Creo que vale lo que cuesta

They took care of everything. The equipment, information, option to go into the submarine (included in the cost), the time spent the water. The food. Everything was amazing. One the best days ever.

Everything about the day was fantastic! It was a great day to have a great day, and that we did!

it is worth for money and enjoyed alot and crew people treated well
