Reviews: Cairns helicopter and light aircraft sightseeing tour [Great Barrier Reef/Kuranda Rainforest/Marine life]
Guest User2024-04-06
How can I come to Cairns without seeing the beautiful Great Barrier Reef? Helicopters have to be arranged, the sky overlooking the entire Great Barrier Reef is really great, the view is very good, the helicopter is a bit noisy★

Yes, the helicopter tour is highly recommended. The scenery is beautiful, many of the crew members speak Chinese, and the lunch is also good.★

Reviews: Cairns Reef Magic 1-day tour [Reef Magic/Helicopter/Scuba Diving/Includes Buffet Lunch/Unlimited Snorkeling]
Guest User2026-02-22
It was a great day out! The crew were super organised and friendly, they were also very patient with the dozens of tourists who didn’t speak much English. It’s a big boat with a couple hundred tourists, so be prepared for that. Lunch was great! We had a great day out and snorkelling on the reef was just incredible.★

Guest User2024-10-01
The places in the reef that were chosen were absolutely breathtaking! It was like swimming in an aquarium there were so many fish. The coral
Was stunning and diverse. A very competent crew and skipper Makayla!! Recommend this small group tour over the larger groups for sure!!!
