Asked on December 30th, 2024Can you provide any further information on the transportation between locations, like duration and if baggage transferred, and secondly if there is any additional cost reductions on the cost offered per person for these dates.
Via Travel AustraliaOperator•Written December 2024Depending on the group size we usually travel in a 14 or 24 seat mini bus, with the exception of travel from Brisbane to Whitsunday Coast when we currently take a flight. There is a fair bit of distance covered on this trip but we do manage this with lots of stops for activities, food or toilet breaks, so there is opportunity to stretch your legs. We see so many beautiful spots and have a laugh along the way! On travel days it is generally between 4 - 6 hours travel time although from Airlie Beach to Mission Beach it is a longer day. We do stay for two nights in Airlie Beach and Cairns. Depending on the type of bus we use, baggage is transported either in a trailer or in a luggage compartment at the back of the bus. Porterage isn't included in the tour and we do ask that passengers be able to handle their own luggage, the guide is there to assistance if needed with stairs etc. but we do encourage you to only pack what you can manage yourself. With the internal flight tere is a 23kg limit for checked baggage plus a 7kg limit for carry on baggage. Any current special offers are always displayed on the website.

Asked on August 30th, 2024I am disabled, I have problems with my legs. I can walk but not very far. Is this a problem?
- Via Travel AustraliaOperator•Written August 2024
Although we consider this tour to be light active, there is definitely longer walks involved often on uneven surface such as grass or sand. Passengers need to be able to assist with getting their luggage on and off the bus and to their rooms. We also have activities that require getting on and off boats when they are not in dock, so may need to jump in to shin deep water and wade a few metres to shore. There are often stairs to be navigated on this trip as well. Not participating in activities that involved the above would impact the value of this trip for you.
