Reviews: Cairns Aquarium Turtle Hospital and City Sightseeing Tour
Guest User2025-07-29
The turtle rescue rehab programme at the cairns acquarium was really informative and interesting. This was followed by our tour of cairns city. Tropical botanical gardens was well worth visiting. St Monica’s cathedral with its full length stained glass windows, are the largest in the world was awesome. Palm coast beach where we walked the pier and the view of the city from a high point. Lastly yummy scones topped off with jam and cream. Graham our tour guide was very friendly, and had a wealth of knowledge regarding cairns and the surrounding area.★

Reviews: Discover Cairns: Cairns River Cruise & City Sights Tour
Guest User2024-11-06
Thanks to the boat crew who tried to engage us despite the language barrier. Thanks to Dundees Restaurant who served us diligently, with a smile and without restrictions on the menu. A special thanks to Chris on the bus who made himself accessible to everyone, speaking more slowly, often explaining with humor and who passionately showed us the city of Cairns and its surroundings.★

Reviews: Cairns Big Cat Cruise Green Island Great Barrier Reef day tour [Chinese and English | Optional snorkeling and glass-bottom boat]
Guest User2025-09-01
If you have your own snorkeling equipment, you can directly choose the glass boat. You can go snorkeling with your own equipment. You can see green turtles and cat sharks. There is a buffet at noon. In addition to snorkeling, you can also dig sand on the beach. There is also a small zoo on the island. Compared with other places, it is really worth it.
