I really enjoyed my trip. I would highly recommend it.
We had a fantastic trip to Fraser Island on 9/2/2021. Early morning pickup from Noosa and straight to Rainbow Beach where we stopped for a toilet break and much needed coffee. Then the 4WD bus arrived and all 15 of us headed to the Barge. 15 mins barge ride over to Fraser - tide was a bit high so Jamie our guide decided on going to inland track route 11 - lots of bumpety ride but to be expected and having a professional driving the 4wd was reassuring. We stopped for some morning tea - a coffee tea or juice with cake, muffins and apples. Then spotted our first and only dingo. Then to the rainforest where we were left to do a 2kms walk through the most peaceful rainforest ... Crystal clear waters and so many plants and fascinating fungi. It's a one way track and a little tricky to navigate at times but if you're fit no problems. We got to spot a diamond python cradled in a tree which was pretty special too. We then headed to Lake McKenzie for a swim in the crystal clear waters ... It was amazing. Unfortunately the toilets change room were being renovated so this was a little inconvenient. Jamie had a delicious lunch of chicken, cheese and salad rolls with a can of softdrink and leftover cake and apples. We then had another wild ride through the island and beach drive back to the ferry. It's a huge day but so worth the effort. Great company to deal with and Jamie was an excellent driver, guide with information overload - and kept us well informed - all watered and fed - great work. We last visited Fraser Island over 25 years ago and were surprised at the amount of garbage loitered on the beaches - so much plastic, cardboard, rubbish even rusty gas bottles... During our entire time on the island we didn't see a ranger once so unsure if they still exist but something needs to be done to ensure this island stays paradise else in a further 20 years it'll be a dump site.
I think this car was the biggest on the whole island:), we had even the chance to sit in the front, some moment I felt just like in a Jurassic movie. The guide was a good driver, he told lot of stories to us. Stops were great, we had always some snakes and lunch.
Yes, well worth the money, Brock showed us around and really knew his stuff and was an excellent tour guide, just a bit sad we didn't have more time as I would have loved to have seen the shipwreck. The lake was beautiful and lunch was more than enough for everyone A+ day and will definitely do the 2 day one in the future.
