Eric was our driver and guide for the afternoon and he was extremely knowledgeable about the city and surrounding areas we visited. The afternoon tea was very Nice, scones with jam and cream washed down with a choice of beverages of which I had English breakfast tea and it was very nice. Picked up and dropped off at hotel and can recommend doing this when visiting Cairns.
This tour is an excellent way to see a bit of the reef and the city, including the beautiful Palm Cove. Emma, our driver cum guide was superb. Quite enjoyed the tea at NOAs. Was lovely to visit the Cathedral as it was the Easter weekend. Visit to the Museum was excellent.
good trip
Good way to get an overview of Cairns. The trip included a visit to a church with amazing stained glass windows, the museum guided tour and the botanic gardens which included afternoon tea plus a couple of other stops with views of Cairns. If you're short of time in Cairns this trip is ideal.
This was a very interesting tour that allowed travelers to see all of the various sites of importance in Cairns. The commentary made it interesting and the knowledge of the guide made for a great afternoon after a morning visit to Green Island. Green Island and the glass bottom boat tour were very interesting as well and a great way to visit the Great Barrier Reef.
This was an excellent tour. Half a day on Green Island is enough unless you are into the snorkelling or diving, the glass bottom boat trip gave us the opportunity to see some magnificent reef fish and turtles and the Cairns City tour was much better than we expected. Not just a quick trip around town, but out of the city to see the sights and Eric, our driver and guide was full of information and anecdotes about the places we visited.
