FAQs
Sydney: Why does the itinerary use dual-names for locations (ie. Warrane/Sydney)? Contiki acknowledges the Traditional and Torres Strait Island owners of the land, sea and waters of the spectacular Australian continent. Dual-naming reflects that, as we explore this remarkable land, we recognise and respect Indigenous custodianship of a unique, ancient culture and country.

ITINERARY

Cairns to Great Barrier Reef
See you later Cairns (Gimuy) and hello sun, sea, and marine environments galore. We hope you've got your sea legs on cos the Great Barrier Reef is calling and we're about to take you there.   Welcome to one of the most special places in the world - and it's all yours for 3 days! The sites you'll visit have been selected for their quality of coral, marine life, and great visibility. As one of the world's most sought-after reefs there's no time to waste; it's time to get down to business.

Great Barrier Reef
Today you explore this World Heritage listed underwater playground with a combo of diving & snorkelling. What can we tell you about this spectacular reef? Well, here we go. More than 1,500 species of fish, 411 types of hard coral, one-third of the world's soft corals and 134 species of sharks and rays call this clear blue water home. Add over 30 species of marine mammals to the mix...has your mind been officially blown?

Great Barrier Reef to Cairns
There’s more diving or snorkelling in different areas of the reef today, and we're going to be no doubt pulling you out kicking and screaming for more. Well, why not come back and take on one of our East Coast trips to see even more? Insert sad face. We return to Cairns in the late afternoon & transfer to your hotel.
