Amazing tour with wonderful guide! - This trip was amazing! Sherene was incredible , she picked is up right on time , It was early and cold and she had blankets and neck pillows ready for us in the car , so sweet! So I was able to sleep wonderfully for another hour , once we arrived it was raining a little bit and she even had umbrellas for all of us. We were perfectly in time for the sunrise and there were kangaroos and walibis , after this we did a beautiful hike and she told us all about nature and animals , she knew a lot about it! After the hike she even had breakfast for us with coffee , tea , chai , milo , cookies , fruit , yogurt. In short ; this was a great tour and I would definitely book it

Sunrise with Kangaroos - an unforgettable experience - Such a blast!! One of the best experiences I had in my life - a sunrise with the kangaroos in one of most beautiful beaches in Australia. It’s a unique experience and Cherene makes it even more unforgettable. She is really caring and knowledgeable. Her passion about the nature and animals is very impressive, and brings you totally to another worlds. She is very thoughtful and makes sure you will have the best time since she picks you up! It’s so amazing how enthusiastic she can be at 3am! She did everything she could to make sure we could have the best experience. Looking forward to repeating another experience with Driftwood Tours.

Awesome experience 😍 - It was sooo amazing!!🤩 Cherene picked us up really early in the morning but we could get some sleep in the van, we even had some blankets. Then we arrived at Cape Hillsborough Beach and watched the sunrise while the Kangaroos and a Wallabie with a baby had their breakkie at the beach🥹. I took so many pictures haha. After the kangaroos left the beach we had a nice breakfast right behind the beach. It was so peaceful and I really enjoyed it that we were such a small group. Then we went for a short hike in the bush to a lookout point, the view was amazing and there was no one apart of us. Cherene told us the whole time a lot of things about the nature and the natives who lived there. I really really enjoyed this experience and I can’t recommend it enough if you’re searching for a non or less-touristy spot/activity.😍😍

Amazing experience! - My mum and I had an amazing time on our tour of Cape Hillsborough! Our tour guide, Cherene, was so witty, professional and knowledgeable! She shared so much information and fun facts with our group about plants, trees, animals and much more! She was also very accomodating and went the extra mile to make sure that everyone was enjoying themselves. This tour has been my absolute favorite! Thank you so much Driftwood Tours and Cherene for such an awesome time in Airlie Beach!

Complete waste of money and time - Complete waste of money. The rain came down heavy the whole time right from the start of the trip it should have been cancelled so we could get our money back . Total waste of time saw 2 kangaroos that’s it . Breakfast was basic to say the least. Look elsewhere
