10/10 fun was had - Jenai, you flipping legend. Such a fun day, wish we could have stayed for more.
Thanks for keeping us company on your day off.
P.S. Jellyfish are born through a complex, multi-stage life cycle, starting as fertilized eggs that hatch into larva (planula) and settle onto a hard surface to become polyps. These polyps clone themselves before eventually segmenting and releasing tiny, swimming juvenile jellyfish called ephyra, which grow into adult medusae.

Outstanding natural beauty - Stunning day trip to paradise. Our guide, Dan F, was fantastic, very knowledgeable and down to earth. Ferry over, 4WD ride to our stop and had swam in Lake McKenzie, had a beautiful, guided walk through a small piece of rainforest, spotted 3 dingos and had a brilliant day. It’s a bouncy ride but so worth it for the scenery and experience. If you appreciate natural beauty, then don’t miss this trip.

Amazing…. You’ve got to go! - What a brilliant day. Picked up in Rainbow Beach and our guide, Dan was down to earth and had lots of interesting information to share. The 4WD vehicle was comfortable and very bouncy. K’gari met all our expectations, we saw dingoes, walked in the rainforest, swam in a fresh water lake and visited the shipwreck. Lunch was delicious and we had afternoon snacks too. Great tunes on the bus too! Couldn’t have asked for a better day and thanks Dan for great driving.

The Best of K'gari - If you would like a comprehensive visit to this UNESCO World Heritage site, this is a MUST tour. We were TOTALLY impressed by the amount of ground we covered while seeing so much of K'gari. Moreover, among other things, we saw numerous dingoes, experienced a unique rain forest, got to swim in a fresh water lake, and saw a historical ship wreck. Meanwhile, others on the tour also tubed down a freshwater creek and took an airplane flight of the island, taking-off/landing right off the beach. This was definitely a first-class tour complete with expert commentary.

Great day trip, superb tour guide and a long time in the tour bus. - Picked up at the Surf Club and short trip to the ferry, nice trip along the beach and into the rainforest. Cuppa and cake followed by the lake and lunch, very bumpy decent back to the beach. Stopping off at the wreck and the stream, managed to see three dingos too.
The tour guide was awesome and really funny. Enjoyed the day but was glad to get off at the end, a lot of travelling involved in the trip.

K'Gari tour with Discovery tours. - Lol, Im surprised this is even an option. The bus was an hour late due to poor tire conditions resulting in the driver scrambling to find a different bus at 6am which resulted in the tour being cut short. If it wasnt for our amazing tour guide the trip would have been canceled. On the way home we blew a tire, the bus was missing tools, we managed to get the tire changed to find out the spare tire was also leaking leaking air. Limped the bus back to the fairy. Our guide was so good, he kept his cool dispite having a treacherous day, he made for quite an entertaining trip dispite the set backs. The island was beautiful, Discovery tours could use some help in the maintenance department.
