Day 1 to 4: Fraser Island
Today you travel north through Brisbane & the Sunshine Coast before arriving in Hervey Bay. This coastal village is famous both as the whale watching hub of Australia plus as the gateway to Fraser Island. Here you have 3 options:

**BUDGET OPTION: Fraser Island, Whitsundays and Cairns, with a unique stopover at Capricorn Coast

Option A (Budget): Day 1 - 5 : 2 Nights Hervey Bay + Fraser Island Day Tour (includes Lunch)  + 2 Nights Capricorn Coast 
Do Fraser in one fun-filled day with an experienced local guide and see the best the island has to offer. Set on the Tropic of Capricorn in Central Queensland, the Capricorn Coast is an undiscovered gem. With an average daily temperature of 25 degrees Celsius, the Capricorn Coast is a haven for long days in the warm sun all year round. If unspoilt beaches, clean white sand and sparkling ocean are your thing, then you're coming to the right place.

Option B: 3 Day Camping Safari + Accommodation Hervey Bay (food kitty)
This is a great package where you will actually get a chance to get behind the wheel and experience driving (4x4) on these remote beaches of Fraser Island. You are a part of a guided self drive tag along tour of Fraser Island (for safety you follow a lead guide driver in your vehicle). See all this unique region has to offer and spend your nights camping in this magnificent wilderness. (this option has an upgrade fee of $125)

Option C: 3 Day Lodge Safari + Accommodation Hervey Bay (2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, and 2 dinners)
Guided four wheel drive adventure which overnights in the Wilderness Lodge (part of Kingfisher Bay Resort). Included in your touring will be Lake Mackenzie, Basin Lake, Pile Valley, Maheno Shipwreck, Coloured Sands & Champagne Pools. (this option has an upgrade fee of $145)

Day 5 to 9: Whitsundays
Travel north to Airlie Beach. Airlie is the gateway to the Whitsunday's – an archipelago of 74 tropical islands. Our resort is located on the main strip and features a swimming pool, bar and night club. This is the ideal base to explore the Whitsunday's from. Here you have 3 options:

Option A (Budget): Day 6 - 10 : Full Day Whitsunday Sailing (lunch whilst on cruise) + Accommodation in Airlie Beach
This option includes a full day on a maxi sailing yacht where we sail around the Whitsunday Islands and enjoy the great snorkelling and pristine beaches.

Day 10 - 12: Great Barrier Reef
Cairns is the adventure playground of Australia offering bungy jumping, white water rafting, kayaking, ballooning and diving. Here you have plenty of time to experience the Great Barrier Reef along with the other adrenaline activities that this town boasts....and then it is party time when the sun goes down. To maximise you experience on the Great Barrier Reef, we offer you a choice of 2 options:

Option A (Budget): Day 11 - 13: Full Day Cruise
