Amazing experience smooth sailing all the way, thoroughly enjoyed all the activities. Neville, the driver to and from the port, was a lovely gentleman and fun to talk to, bones, the driver on moreton island and the man responsible for the sandboarding activity, was hilarious, josh and Jake, the boys in the water who led the snorkel tour and kayaking, were easygoing but also extremely watchful and vigilant, and did a great job making sure everyone was safe at all times. Great value for money, would recommend to everyone/anyone.

The campsite is very close to the tangalooma shipwrecks also a quick 1 minute walk to the beach. Wayne the tourguide was very genuine and takes into account that his clients experience the best of Moreton Island not no mention our safety. The guided snorkelling was the highlight of the trip as Wayne knows when is the best time to snorkel. The sand boarding is also the best because he made sure we enjoyed it and showed is the proper way slide down the sand dunes. The meal was camp site style and my tour mates and I were starving after a full day of adventure. Wayne even made sure that we had bonfire to keep us warm as we star gaze on the campsite and had a bonus of marshmallow to make s'mores.

Tania our guide was great. It was my 60th and I was looking for a little company that offered great value for money and I got it. The wineries we went to had great wines and were very pretty. We even went to a little boutique distillery where we got to sample some interesting liqueurs. We didn't know exactly where we were going at the start but as it turned out two of our stops were on my bucket list to visit. We all had a fantastic time with heaps of laughs. COVID restrictions had been eased in Queensland recently and we just had to sanitise and sign in at each venue and that was great.
