“It was an amazing tour and the tour guide was great at teaching and very funny. It wasn’t any ordinary tour because of how many fun things we got to do along the way and how it wasn’t all about the history while still getting to learn so many awesome things. I would totally recommend this tour to anyone looking for a great time in Melbourne, Australia!”

2.Snorkel & Dive the Reef: Sustainable, Scientific & Cultural Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 841 reviews · from $232

Review of Reef Magic’s Cairns Great Barrier Reef tour, with snorkeling, glass-bottom boats, lunch, marine talks, costs, tips, and honest drawbacks.

“Such a great day! The waters getting to the reef was gnarly but still a great day! They gave out sea sickness pills early on, no one in my group got sick. We had a great day snorkeling in the boundary area, I liked having the roped off area, others didn’t, but it was plenty big, we saw lots of fish, and gorgeous coral. Spring suits offered, snorkeling gear was great. I’ve already recommended this excursion to other travelers before getting home.”
