Reviews: Cairns Sunlover Great Barrier Reef cruise one-day tour [Official booking | Bilingual guide | Lunch included]
Guest User2025-08-04
It is worth the experience, recommend every friend who comes to Cairns to choose to go to sea. The children like it very much. The water slide (it is said that all cruise ships are unique), snorkeling, we saw the sea turtle swimming around, very healing. There is a period of departure that is a bit uncomfortable, and there is no feeling on the return trip. I don't know if the body is adapting to it or is it a problem with the flow.

Guest User2025-07-17
I enjoyed diving in helicopters! I was able to enjoy the spectacular view of the Great Barrier Reef from both the sky and the sea and had the best day. I think it was really nice to be able to go to the beauty of the sea of the outer reef. The lunch buffet was also delicious with color 々. The cold watermelon was especially delicious and I got a lot! I was also happy with the tea and tea confectionery service on the return ship.

Guest User2025-04-30
Great value sun lover day trip, great. The scenery on the way out by boat is super beautiful, the buffet tastes good, there are many tricks, and the tube is full and enough. The crew service is also very thoughtful, and they are very patient to help take pictures and answer questions. The helicopter must experience it, beyond the unexpected surprise, from the sky to see the sea and coral reefs, the view is super shocking! Snorkeling also saw a lot of beautiful small fish, but also met turtles! A day to be full and happy, highly recommended!
