Reviews/Trip Moments

Reviews: Cairns Sunlover Reef Cruises 1-day tour [double reef + Ferris wheel/variety show same style/glass bottom boat/diving and snorkeling/buffet lunch/semi-submarine/helicopter sightseeing]
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 hot air balloon ride with sunrise views - 40–60 min flight experience (includes taxes + optional hotel transfers)
Guest User2025-11-04
It was better than I expected! It was my first time to ride a hot air balloon, and the view was truly spectacular. I was glad I participated because I was able to see wild animals like wallabies and horses, and I would definitely participate again if I ever come to Cairns. It was also great that I was able to enjoy myself right up until the last moment before I left! I was grateful that they took me to the airport. A Japanese person was there the whole time, explaining everything to me, so I was able to participate with peace of mind. They also communicated with me via SMS right up until the last moment before the trip, which made things go smoothly on the day. Thank you very much!
Reviews: Cairns Reef Magic 1-day tour [Reef Magic/Helicopter/Scuba Diving/Includes Buffet Lunch/Unlimited Snorkeling]
Guest User2026-02-22
It was a great day out! The crew were super organised and friendly, they were also very patient with the dozens of tourists who didn’t speak much English. It’s a big boat with a couple hundred tourists, so be prepared for that. Lunch was great! We had a great day out and snorkelling on the reef was just incredible.
Reviews: Cairns koalas and creatures admission ticket - Cairns Koalas and Creatures at the Pier Ticket
Guest User2025-11-16
The koalas were so cute and I was so happy to be able to hold one. They took photos right on time so there was no wasted time. I thought it would be a zoo-like facility so I went early to look around the facility until it was time to hold one, but the main attraction was holding the koalas and the facility was very small so I finished looking around quickly, so I'm glad I arrived a little before my reservation time. The moment I held the koala, it rubbed against me and became so cute I was so happy. They also took some great photos so I'm glad I went.
