ITINERARY

DAY 1 Brisbane
On arrival into Brisbane you will be transferred to your hotel.

DAY 2 Brisbane
Depart Brisbane this morning for your Croc Express Tour. Travel by coach to the Sunshine Coast, home of the Crocodile Hunter and Australia Zoo, a popular holiday playground for Australian’s and visitors alike. This tour goes directly to and from Australia Zoo, made famous by the antics of Steve and Terri Irwin (The Crocodile Hunter) and their global documentaries. 

This wildlife “Theme Park” is too good to rush. Spend almost 6 hours seeing the many shows and demonstrations including crocodile feeding and snake handling. The handlers even walk some animals through the park so you can get up close and personal. The Zoo has a team of over 200 experts who believe in conservation through exciting education, and will ensure you have a wildlife experience you’ll never forget. View the majestic Glasshouse Mountains bordered by pineapple plantations and pine forests as you travel along the Glasshouse Mountains scenic route for your return to Brisbane in the late afternoon.

DAY 3 Fraser Island
Morning at leisure to explore Brisbane city. Afternoon hotel pick up for your seat-in-coach transfer to Hervey Bay, connecting with evening catamaran transfer to Kingfisher Bay Resort on Fraser Island where you will enjoy the next two nights.

Australia’s World Heritage listed Fraser Island is the world’s largest sand island, but is certainly no desert! Fraser Island boasts magnificent rain forests, beautiful fresh water lakes, mighty sand dunes, spectacular Seventy-five Mile Beach, shipwrecks and abundant wild life. Roaring surf and calm, blue island waters make Fraser Island a paradise for boating, fishing, swmming, beachcombing, bushwalking and four-wheel driving.

DAY 4 Fraser Island
Enjoy a cooked breakfast this morning before embarking on a 4WD Ranger Guided Fraser Island Eco-tour. Discover the natural and cultural history of World Heritage listed Fraser Island. From Central Station, walk along the banks of Wanggoolba Creek, as it flows silently through rainforest. Marvel at the tall, majestic satinay trees of Pile Valley. Drive along spectacular Seventy-five Mile beach. Stop to swim or paddle in the cool fresh waters of Eli Creek. This swift-flowing creek, the largest on the Eastern Beach, spills 80 mega litres of fresh water into the ocean everyday. Visit the wreck of the Maheno and marvel at the colored sands of the Pinnacles. See an ancient forest being uncovered as Stonetool Sand Blow moves across the island.

Optional Ranger Guided walks and talks will be available for you to choose from.

DAY 5 Fraser Island to Brisbane
This morning you will depart after breakfast, returning to Hervey Bay by catamaran transfer, meeting your seat-in-coach transfer for your journey back to Brisbane. Arrive Brisbane after lunch in time for your onward flight.
