Can I do the tours consecutively?

Due to the 11-hour journey between Airlie Beach and Rainbow Beach, we recommend giving yourself at least one or two days between the end of your first tour and the beginning of your second.

Is this package good for making friends?

Both of these tours are social, backpacker-style trips. Naturally, this attracts young, fun and social travellers, making it super cruisy and easy to make friends! We recommend this package for solo travellers, small groups and friends/couples alike.
