Reviews
The Japanese professor was very considerate and caring, looking after everyone in the group. On the way back, they even shared parenting tips, making them feel as approachable as a friend.
This was my first snorkeling experience, and I had a wonderful time. Before we set off, a questionnaire was given to each traveler to assess their swimming and diving experience. Since I don't know how to swim and had no prior snorkeling experience, I tried snorkeling under the guidance of our leader, Yuji. Throughout the process, I deeply appreciated Yuji's meticulousness and attention to detail; he explained all the safety precautions very clearly. As for the food on the island, I personally found it delicious, and the other facilities and environment were kept very neat and clean (especially the restrooms, which had no unpleasant odors at all). This was truly a fantastic trip. Thank you, Yuji, for your encouragement, which helped me successfully unlock snorkeling.
thx, very very good . thx, so mach
The small plane was very smooth! The scenery was beautiful! The Japanese tour guide was very nice! Saw a lot of manta rays and sea turtles! Very spectacular! Although it was cold in winter! But the wetsuit worked! Very worthwhile.
tldr: literally go out of your way to come here The tour was my favorite part of Australia no questions asked. The tour checked every single box we were looking for: luxury, relaxation, fun, and education. Everyone in the staff is incredibly kind and helpful. They even have marine biologists on site to help you identify wildlife. They will go out of their way to make sure you are treated well both experience wise and customer service wise. Our tour guide was Yugi. He is extremely knowledgeable in everything ranging from marine wildlife to the island’s conservation attempts. Super enthusiastic as a guide, he will make every attempt to let you have fun. When we were snorkeling, he will offer to lead you and show you the best spots. We saw four turtles thanks to him. If you can, request Yugi. You will be in excellent hands. The ocean is crystal blue, the marine life is teeming, and of course, Yugi’s guidance was the cherry on top. Throughout the tour, our family reverted to a childlike happiness. If you are looking for fun, luxury, good service, and relaxation on the beach, don’t think twice about it. You will not regret it.
The guide was amazing and super helpful. A lot of information was provided so I felt ready for the trip. Everything was provided and the snorkeling was amazing, was swimming alongside a bunch of sea turtles!
This trip was simply fantastic! All the staff were friendly, helpful and competent. The flight was great and a great experience. The flora and fauna on the island and in the water are simply enchanting. It was one of the best trips of my life!
It was a perfect trip. The tour guide Yuji was professional, enthusiastic and responsible. Lady Elliot Island has beautiful scenery and has taken ecological protection to the extreme
we all have good experiences in island an fun
The actual time on the island is not long, and it will still be very cold, but the flying experience is great. Whether it is actually worth the price is a matter of opinion.
