Green Island is a paradise. Snorkeling there is an amazing experience — you can see turtles and so many different fish. If I go back to Cairns, I’ll 100% go there again!

Tour group made what would seem like a complicated day trip very easy and enjoyable. Hotel pickup was appreciated. Tour lead provided tickets and instructions on how to execute the day. The Skyrail was a really neat trek and the town of Kuranda was definitely worth visiting. We had a great lunch up there and also paid to go into the Koala Gardens (mini zoo) where we could pet and feed kangaroos! The train ride home was memorable, though it is a long slow ride. Highly recommend booking this tour if you have an extra day in the Cairns area. Well worth it!

This was a fantastic family experience. All staff were helpful and knowledgeable and ensured all in attendance were catered for. The boat was comfortable, the pontoon was well stocked and with more than enough room to not feel crowded and the lunch on Fitroy Island was delicious. Very happy we chose DunLoved yo tick off this bucket list item.

We love the snorkelling, the boat going back was really comfortable, the food was excellent It would've been good to know that there was freshwater on the island and a place to have a picnic, we had no idea what to expect and didn't know that we didn't have to bring our own water, I didn't realise there was an entire hotel there either What would've been excellent would have been telling us to go to the left of the wharf for an easy entrance to snorkelling especially for little kids, we were just dumped on the island so we didn't know where to go, and we heard our feet on the coral The boarding of the boat took very very long time over half an hour and they could've just done a public announcement that we needed to collect a year on the third level instead of individually telling everyone really slowly We had an amazing day and the food was really good in the lunchbox etc but more info would have been better I also had no idea how long the boat trip was from Cairns to the island, there was literally no information FAQ: how long to island, is there fresh water, where to snorkel

The day was good however an extra 45-60min would have been better for exploring both snorkeling spots. Appreciate schedules are in the way however this is what would have been better for us. Thanks, would recommend
