We went on the Red-cat 1 day tour , it was great value for money ! Jett and Carlos were amazing super knowledgeable and looked after us well . You had perfect time to snorkel and to visit Whitehaven beach ! We got picked up by our transfer bus and the lady was lovely ! I’d totally recommend if you’re looking to explore the Whitsundays in good timing .

Had the best time doing this tour. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff about the reef. Really well organised from pick up to drop off and also including lunch and snacks. Despite the rain in the morning we were still able to see incredible views. Snorkelling in the afternoon was the highlight of our trip! Overall great value for money and couldn’t recommend Carlos and Jet enough!

We were Not allowed off the main boat as they had tech issues. No beach / swim time, no banana ride. Stayed on smelly bean bags under the rain for the duration of the trip. Trip was at least an hour shorter due to tech issues as well. Promised a refund. When I requested it they declined to refund.

I was on this trip booked though trutravels and I couldn’t recommend it enough. The staff Nat, Nadia & James went above and beyond to please the guests, whether this was taking us out on a banana boat, taking pictures for us or letting us request songs to play on the boat speaker. They were so friendly and you can tell they really love their job! They were also very funny and cracked jokes throughout the day. They also went a longer route back to the harbour so that we could admire the beautiful sunset that evening. The boat was the smoothest catamaran I’ve ever been on the day was a real mix of extremely relaxing whilst fun and adventurous. Big thank you to their team! The food was very lovely and the snorkelling was cool to see the coral and some tropical fish.

One of our best ever days out and easily the best of our Australian holiday. Everything about the trip was well organised and professionally done with safety being top of the priority list. The crew, skippered (if I remember correctly!) by Shannon, were exceptional - they worked really hard to ensure everyone had the best time; they were humorous and friendly, excellent with all the passengers including the children. The boat was impressive - very fast and smooth even in choppy water. Lunch was very good and there was plenty of it. Both of the snorkelling sessions were brilliant - loads of exotic fish and magnificent coral. My wife, not a confident swimmer and quite worried about going, absolutely loved it. Overall highly recommended- we couldn’t think of any obvious way the trip could be improved. And once again, the crew were superb.
