Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and told us interesting stories. We were quite a small group, which made it even better to connect and ask questions and get information.

Our guide was very knowledgeable about the flora, fauna and the history of Magnetic island. The information was delivered with humour and various questions to get the visitors engaged.
I highly recommend this tour to any visitors to the island.
Also very good value.

A comprehensive and enjoyable tour of Magnetic Island with Neil whose knowledge of the island was extensive. Highly recommended.

If you have one day to explore the island, this is a pretty good tour option, you will see the highlights & the tourguide will provide a great overview of the nature, plants & wildlife. Our tourguide went out of his way to find us koalas and wallabies which was great and he was very friendly.

Neil had a bountiful of knowledge of Magnetic island!
He was approachable & friendly - great value in air- conditioned comfort.
We even spotted a koala in the wild, I would recommend anyone to take this tour. Thank you for an enjoyable tour!

The tour was really nice and Neil explained us a lot about everything we encountered (plants, wildlife, etc.)
Donna_S, Aug 2023
Our guide, Neil, was funny and knowledgeable. It was a group of 16 of us and Neil ensured all our questions were addressed and he accommodated all physical needs. Although we rented a jeep the day before and thought we covered the main highlights, Neil took us to places we didn't even know about. Places probably only known to locals.
