Hi,

We are going to Australia in a couple of weeks and we really want to do a tour to Fraser Island and the Whitsundays, does anyone have any suggestions on a really good budget tours to the areas?

Thanks! Reply to this

Hi,

We have done both but it vaires for what you wish to do particulary on the Whitsundays.. Budgets tours are usually sailing boats with just cruise around the place or you can choose motor boats which of course are more expensive.

For Fraser Island we used 'unique fraser' which you can find in google. They just gave us (and five other strangers) a 4*4 and off we went. It is a budget tour and we have a map which we needed to follow and make by each night for our camp sites. At these sites people we waiting for us to help cook and tell stories etc.. What I particulary liked was the guys saftey lecture before we started, pretty much scared the crap out of us to make sure we behaved on the island, great Aussie humor it was 😊 Although recently backpackers have played up and caused some accidents on Fraser Island and hurt several people so he is protecting us.

Anyway, enjoy your trip 😊 Reply to this

We went on a boat called the Maxi Ragamuffin to the Whitsundays. It was a nice day trip. They provided a picnic and time on the beach. Several of us played water games. A good day with great memories.

Happy Travels. Reply to this
