Guide

AUSTRALIAN LEADERS: All group trips are accompanied by a group leader. In Australia your group leader is often also your driver, taking you from start to finish. The aim of the group leader is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. Your leader will provide information on the places you are travelling through, offer suggestions for things to do and see, as well as recommend great local eating venues. They will also introduce you to our local friends along the way. Please be aware they will be juggling many things on your tour and may have less time to spend with you. They will always be working hard to ensure you and your group have a fantastic time exploring Australia.

Accommodation

Itinerary of your trip K’Gari (Fraser Island) Adventure

  • Day 1 Day 1: Noosa / Rainbow Beach / K’Gari
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 1: Noosa / Rainbow Beach / K’Gari

      After your pick-up in Noosa, your first stop is Rainbow Beach’s massive Carlo Sandblow. Take a path through eucalypt stands and rainforest to reach this huge accumulation of windblown sand known as the Cooloola sandmass. As you cross the sandblow, marvel at this ever-changing landscape, transformed by wind. From the top you’ll enjoy stunning 180-degree views over Rainbow Beach and K’gari (formerly known as Fraser Island). Next, you’ll continue to the ferry that will transport you across the water to stunning K’gari (a 10-minute crossing), the Butchulla people’s name for the island, meaning ’paradise’. This name change is a major milestone in a long-running campaign by the Butchulla people. Once you’ve arrived on the world’s largest sand island, drive along 75 Mile Beach – K’gari’s own “sand highway” complete with speed limits. Now your adventure really begins, with a drive to Eli Creek, a beautifully clear creek that’s perfect for a relaxing swim. Travelling north, stop at the Maheno Shipwreck for a photo opportunity and a chat about this famous K’gari icon. In the afternoon, travel to your campground for dinner and drinks.

      Accommodation: Permanent tented camp

  • Day 2 Day 2: K’Gari
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 2: K’Gari

      Today begins with a quick breakfast to fuel your busiest day on K’gari. Your first stop is famous Lake McKenzie (Boorangoora), one of the island’s most popular and picturesque highlights. Stop here with time to relax on the white sand beach or swim in the lake’s amazingly clear waters. Lake McKenzie sits above the water table so it’s comprised entirely of rainwater and is too pure for the plants and fish you’d find in most lakes. Head onwards to the ancient rainforest-surrounded Central Station, Wanggoolba Creek and Pile Valley before driving back up to your campground accommodation. Settle in for dinner and perhaps a few drinks with your group.

      Accommodation: Permanent tented camp

  • Day 3 Day 3: K’Gari / Noosa
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 3: K’Gari / Noosa

      After breakfast, you’ll drive to Lake Wabby, a deep green lake at the base of the sweeping crystalline white hills known as the Hammerstone Sandblow. Young Butchulla men were once brought here to train as warriors, running up and down the sand hills until they were considered ready to hunt. Hammerstone is advancing at around a metre a year which means that in less than 100 years Lake Wabby will probably be gone. Yet another reason to visit this special place now. Enjoy lunch before driving down the beach to the barge, which you’ll catch to Rainbow Beach and travel back to Noosa and Maroochydore where you’ll be dropped off by your leader at around 5pm.
