Early start but well worth it! Got to see the roads from Noosa to Rainbow Beach and hear history and then explore Fraser Island.

Picked up in Noosa still in the dark by Jacob, headed to Rainbow Beach learning about the history in between, jumped into the Beast Warrior and headed over to Fraser Island on the barge where we learnt more, got to take a dip in the beautiful Lake Mackenzie and then had a yummy lunch before heading back!!! Highly Recommend.

My partner and I took the discovery Fraser island tour being picked up and dropped off from our unit was terrific. The staff were friendly and informative. The beach and rainforest tour was good.
We were disappointed in missing the ship wreck and rainbow sands due to tides changing. The drive back was rather tedious with a large mechanical vibration through vehicle feeling stiff and sore next day.
Our trip to Fraser Island was a very well organised tour and an excellent experience

Our trip to Fraser Island was a very well organised tour and an excellent experience. Everything went very smooth. In talking to the pick-up/drop-off driver, I found out that they are continually re-training their staff and using mystery shoppers. Accordingly, the staff was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, as well as helpful.
Jacob our guide was amazing!

Jacob our guide was amazing!! He was a professional in many unique situations. He was able to drive difficult trails, silenced a cookabera bird at lunch that was going to eat our food, and in his commentary his love of country shows. He was careful and mindful to keep the environment in the condition it has been for years. It felt to us that his life was part of the beautiful land we were seeing. The tour was awesome- the only way to see Fraser Island if you only have a day. The ride is adventurous but worth the views. We really enjoyed our day!

Excellent experience in Fraser island, we enjoyed it so much. Tour guide was very friendly and informative, he explained everything we asked and gave us the ideas of what made Fraser island famous. The view of Lake Mckenzie was breathtaking, crystal clear lake water with finest sands, remember to bring swimwear to enjoy the peacefulness of the lake.
We also spotted a bunch of dolphins when we were on the way back to mainland, the weather was ok, it rained a little occasionally, but still manage to see sunshine during the morning tea time. Since it was only a day tour, time was always constraint and we have to rush abit to catch up the itinerary, but overall experience was fantastic!
An enjoyable but very long day

An enjoyable but very long day. Beautiful scenery, unfortunately didn't get to see any dingoes. Our guide was excellent. Very friendly, very informative. Disappointed not to have had a BBQ lunch, the smells from the other groups' lunches were tantalising - our salad wraps fell a bit short. I would issue a warning to anyone who suffers from travel sickness or neck problems - this was very rough 4 wheel driving, we were lifted well out of our seats despite wearing seat belts,our driver did say it was exceptionally bad that day and obviously you can't predict it but be advised. Bumps aside I would recommend the tour as an excellent way to get an dea of what the island has to offer.
Great service with the courtesy shuttle picking you up straight from the hotel

Great service with the courtesy shuttle picking you up straight from the hotel. Both the shuttle and main 4 WD bus we very spacious and comfortable saw some good locations on the island and had a great chance to explore, swim and relax. The only downside of the tour was that the bus driver did not stop talking in a monotone voice the majority of the things he said were not even relevant to the tour and just sounded as though he liked the sound of his own voice too much
This was an excellent experience for my partner and myself

This was an excellent experience for my partner and myself. The stunning scenery, fantastic lunch and overall day was value for money. I would like to highlight the fact that our tour guide (Ed from South Africa) was faultless in everything he did. It was quite clear he is passionate about what he does and his constant historic knowledge was interesting and informative. From the minute you got on the bus to the minute you left our tour guide made sure we all had a comfortable, safe and enjoyable time.
The only criticism i would have for this tour would be the length of time spent on the bus, it is difficult to see how this could be rectified and at the end of the day it is what is required when you want to view a little piece of paradise.
Would highly recommend this to others.
Regards,
Jimmy

Excellent tour. Staff was really helpful, from the minute the booking was made to throughout the tour. Lake Mckenzie was beautiful. We also saw dingos, turtles and a pot of dolphins. Food was delicious and Stu our drive/tour guide was very knowlegeable and helpful. Wish Discovery includes Eli Creek in the itinery as the Adventure group does for the same price. Overall had a great time. Thank you
