Rainbow Beach Tourist Centre
We begin on the mainland with a morning brief at Freedom Rainbow Beach. At 9:30, once the brief is over and we’re packed and ready to go, we depart for Fraser Island (K'Gari). After a quick 10 minute drive to the ferry, we board for a short barge crossing to World Heritage listed Fraser Island, the world’s largest sand island! Once we land, we drive for around 1 hour to Eurong Resort along what’s known as Fraser Island’s beach highway, the 75 Mile Beach (with a speed limit of 80 km/49 mph)! There you can grab a coffee and a snack for morning tea (own cost).
Lake McKenzie
From here we head to the picturesque Lake McKenzie, famous for its amazing scenery and almost crystal clear waters. We'll enjoy lunch here with plenty of time to enjoy this Fraser Island favourite with some swimming and relaxing on the beach. After cooling off, we drive to our private campsite near the the beach where we'll enjoy an early dinner and stories with your new friends.

Shortly after we travel up to Champagne Pools for a dip! We have lunch at either Maheno shipwreck or Champagne Pools on Day 2 depending on time constraints, safety, and beauty! In the afternoon we travel back to camp for dinner and drinks.

5.00I had the best time! So many activities and stories to hear about the Island. Camp facilities were good and had plenty of food to keep everyone full. Rhett our tour leader was the highlight of the tour. His additional information, experience and impromptu concerts made our whole groups time on this tour extra special. I have made memories and friends to last a life time!

3.00Well planned out tour with pretty pit stops and sites along the way. You will spend a lot of time in the car so be prepared for that. You can’t swim in the ocean so once you get back to the camp, there isn’t a ton to do. The tents are very close together so you will hear everything. The evenings were loud and just felt like a bit of a party vibe. Food was good and there were places we stopped at to get more snacks, drinks, sunscreen, etc. Some of the locations were very busy with tourists and not much shade anywhere. I feel like the 2 day tour would be just as good and I probably would’ve preferred that one!
