It was lovely sharing our stories and life experiences over breakfast.
Thank you for the huge amount of delicious, strong coffee!
Highly recommended!
Jim the operator was very helpful and accomodating. Being from Sydney, we had no idea where the meeting point was. He organised Jenny to pick us from our apartment .
Parts of Bowen had a nice lunch with a couple of beers and a few wines
Cheers Scott Murray
So worth the very early alarm call .
It’s was amazing to see the kangaroos and wallabies on the beach at sunrise.
There is a warden on the beach who lays out treats for the kangaroos .
You can get quite close .
Once the sun rises you also can see the beauty of the Park and beach area .
When we arrived there was not many people , a little later on quite a few more people arrived .
We were collected from our hotel at 2.24am, it’s was approx 2 hrs to get there , on the way back we stopped in an ‘ ‘American Diner ‘ for bacon and egg burgers , they were gorgeous.
Back at our hotel just after 9am
Our driver was Cara , she was lovely and chatty and was giving us information about the area .
It was a small group of 6 , just right .
All the best in the future.
Regards John and Susi from Perth WA
I would recommend this tour with D.
Our tour guide was very informative and told use a lot about the aboriginals and what the tribes use the waterfalls and what for.
Definitely recommend this trip
This was a total surprise and I am 100% glad I went on this one. Beautiful scenery, stunning beach, learnt about marine turtles and had a delicious burger and milkshake at the Diner. Totally one of the best little places in the Whitsundays .
We visited a coffee plantation, Cedar Creek Falls, had lunch at George’s Diner, and finished with a beer and cocktails at Northerlies Beach Bar.
Thoroughly recommend this tour when you’re next in Airlie Beach.
This service is different to many other waterfall tour providers as with Waterfall Express, you're not confined to a tight time period at waterfall. You choose when you get dropped off and when you get picked up (within reason).
Our driver, Julie, was incredible! great person all round, friendly, had a sense of humour and was happy to provide recommendations for other things around the town.
Highly recommend this service. It was probably the highlight of our trip
