Choosing a Whitsundays Tour

With the destination of your holidays already chosen, now is the best time to decide which tour you want to experience on your Whitsundays vacation. The region has a huge variety of day and overnight trips on offer and, like many travellers, you probably have no idea what to do or where to start.

There are a number of things to take into consideration when deciding a tour type, for example, trips depart on different days throughout the week so it is important to know your departure dates sooner rather than later.

Other things to consider are the price of your budget, what things you particularly want to see, and your time frame with both day and overnight tours (between 1 and 3 nights in total) on offer.

Bearing all this in mind, you can begin looking at the boats individually where you will see they all cater for certain demographics with different features throughout.

The overnight boats are tailored to certain audiences with the main groups being backpackers, families, couples, diving, smaller groups and short on time. Most of these tours have a similar itinerary but range in price depending on the particular tour. The vessels also differ in accommodation types and extra onboard activities which can include scuba diving, SUP boards, kayaks and hot tubs (check the individual boats for further information).

Meanwhile, there are some 30-day tours on offer, and sometimes it can be easier to look at the different categories before enquiring. These have been divided into island day tours, sailing, fast trips, reef tours, diving, fishing, scenic flights and fun activities.
