Crew were very accommodating to my sister and I by letting us use pool noodles to “lazy snorkel”. They also allowed us to eat lunch with them as we didn’t bring food (we were under the impression we could eat at the restaurant - not true). Thanks so much guys!!

We are staying at Tangalooma Resort and booked our tour through Sunset Adventures as they offered so much more for the $$$ rather than booking through the resort. Isaiah was our guide and has such a great personality and made this adventure such a special day. He is such a competent driver and mastered the deep ruts in the sand through the island and along the beach like a true professional. We visited blue lagoon, lunch in a bush setting, Honeymoon Bay, champagne pools, beautiful beaches and Cape Morton lighthouse and more. We highly recommend this company and would book another tour with them in a heart beat.

My 3 children and I did the 1 day Get Wrecked tour to Moreton Island which was absolutely amazing. We enjoyed every part of the day from the ferry ride over to the 4wd bus to sand tobogganing and snorkelling and clear bottom kayaks. The lunch was delicious and very filling. We loved it and would go again. Thanks staff for looking after us so well

If you’re looking for expertise, good humour and interesting facts about Fraser Island there is no substitute for the breath taking enthusiasm of John and Murray our awesome guides! There are two parts to this story... John the eagle eyed Dingo and Lobster-pot spotter and Murray the wise and highly experienced adventure guide who taught us the history of this mystical and beautiful island! Anybody staying in Rainbow beach seek the advice of John who know the best spots in town for an amazing sundowner!

A group of us went camping on Moreton Island with Sunset Safari. It was an amazing trip. Bones took great care of us with his driving and culinary skills, as well as teaching us about the island. Rhett's walks and information sessions, photographic genius and musical talent kept us busy and entertained. It was basic, rough and ready and absolutely perfect.

We took 2 days in Moreton Island plan and it was more than our expectations, camp was great, food like restaurant. 4X4 car was the best and modern. Always punctual and the best energy from them. The price is great for the quality of the programs. Kiki and Joshua are the best guides for this kind of plans.

I was so pleased to be able to visit K'gari, as it was something I had always wanted to do. Our guide, Rhett, really made the trip a pleasant one, as he was kind, courteous and informative. I really enjoyed the Island, although the 5 hour trip there and back from Brisbane was perhaps a little too long, but there was no other alternative, except to stay an extra day. We were picked up at 7.00 am at Roma Street Station and travelled on to Noosa, where we had a break. Rhett provided us with lunch at Rainbow Beach. We caught the Ferry across to the island, then on to Eli Creek, where there were a lot of 4WD drives surrounding two dingos lying in the sand. It was too cold to swim and the creek was uninviting. Then we drove up the coast to Indian Head, which we climbed up and got spectacular views up and down the coast. Rhett pointed out stingray from our vantage point. Then it was on to look at the SS Maheno wreck and to the resort. The next day we had a 2km walk through the rainforest. The mosquitoes were terrible, so I was thankful I brought some mosquito repellant with me. From there we had a swim in Lake Birrabeen. We had an exciting drive back to the ferry, as the tide was high and there wasn't much room to drive along the beach in what we call "Big Foot" down here. We stopped again at Rainbow Beach and Noosa on the way home and got in at about 6.30 pm. Unfortunately there was no time to see the colours of the sand on Rainbow Beach.
Thanks Rhett for interesting trip.

Made last minute booking and was 12/10. Chris, Zeey, and Isiah provided excellent service on a true paradise trip. Informative, engaging, fun, and unforgettable. A must book event for anyone looking to travel to Morton Island.

Super thankful to have gone on this trip with Harry as our tour guide. He was friendly, funny, super informative and taught us lots about the town's history and different animals we saw. And he cooks the best Aussie bbq and makes the best Aussie sundaes and you can tell he cares for the well-being of everyone he is hosting!
The trip to Lady Musgrave Island was definitely an experience of a lifetime! Tour guides were awesome and passionate, and snorkeling with the sea turtles along the reef was unbelievable.
Would definitely recommend going on this tour because of all the friendly faces you'll encounter, and will make your experience even better and more memorable.

Hello do you have to swim out to wrecks to snorkle?
Greg A

Hi Rustie,
Sunset Safaris make life easy for our guests by towing our guests out to the wrecks behind our specially designed Jet Skis with Jumbo Sized Rescue Mats. Our guests simply hold onto one of the 10 hand grips on the mats, while the Jet Ski operator skilfully and very slowly tows the group through the water and over to the wrecks to a shallow area called the "Fish Feeding Area." This only takes about 3 minutes, and helps our guests to begin their snorkeling of the ship wrecks as fresh as a daisy.
After the guided snorkeling tour of the wrecks has been completed, we again tow those guests who want to, back to the beach.
On super calm days with no currents, and only when those participating are accomplished snorkelers, we do allow our guests to snorkel to and from the wrecks while accompanied by our snorkeling tour guide if they wish to do so. However due to currents between the beach and the wrecks being quite strong on most occasions, it is much safer, easier and convenient to go the towing option, and our guests love the experience.

I'm wondering what the baggage allowance is? And if there is a size restriction?

Hello！I was wondering if child need to pay Reef tax and boat access fees (AU$185 must be paid to the driver on departure)?
Greg A

Hi,
For children under 15 years, the Boat Access Fees and Reef Tax is considerably cheaper at only $100 AUD. Children also receive a $20 "Child Discount" off the main ticket price for the tour itself, (also known as the "Child Rate" on our website.
People 15 years and over pay $185 Boat Access Fee, but are eligible for the $10 Student discount off the main "Adult" ticket price if under 18 years. This $10 discount off Adult Price also applies to a person of "any age" who holds a current student card.
I hope I have been of help?
Warmest Regards, :-)
GREG
