Queenland tour

The Queensland tour is extremely varied. You get to see the many different faces this state has to offer. You will travel both along the Pacific Coast and through the inland, and experience various types of landscape; hills, arable land, woods, rainforest, sugarcane fields and wonderful bays and coastline, and some beautiful panoramic views. You can also visit a number of National Parks, for example Eungella in Central Queensland, where you can see freshwater tortoises and platypuses from close up. Included in the route inland are the Darling Downs, the South Burnett and the Atherton Tablelands. Descend a winding road to Rockhampton, and continue onto Yeppoon on the Capricorn Coast, from where you make a day trip to Great Keppel Island. Here you will find peaceful beaches and numerous footpaths. Stop near Townsville at some magnificent bays for a refreshing dip. From Townsville you visit Magnetic Island, where a Moke awaits you. Enjoy a day cruise to Long, Daydream and Hamilton Island on the Whitsunday archipelago. From Cairns you take a day cruise by catamaran to the Outer Reef. In Far North Queensland you step aboard for a river cruise, and approach crocodiles and snakes to within just a few metres. In the south of the state you visit beautifully situated little-known villages. You stay at beautiful campsites, some of which are situated at sea. On or near the campsites you will come face to face with kangaroos, koala’s, kookaburras, Rainbow Lorikeets and King Parrots. You can also see emus, camels and dolphins during this tour and, depending on the season, whales.
From Hervey Bay you take a transfer across the Great Sandy Straits via the “Fraser Down” to magnificent Fraser Island, where you discover the beauty of the world’s largest sand island in a 4WD tour coach during a full day.
The Queensland tour is a mix of tourist highlights and little visited places, and is a wonderfully peaceful way to explore this enormous state.
