A Grade Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Thanks Cherene for a great day. Very enjoyable and your local knowledge is fantastic. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a tour that’s off the beaten track and Driftwood Tours proves that there’s more to Airlie Beach/Whitsundays than reef tours. Dave and Mandie.

Stunning scenery, a relaxing escaoe

Published on Nov, 2024

Wonderful tour seeing the other side of Airlie Beach. Very relaxing days finishing with outstanding scenic view of Cape Gloucester. Cherene is a great Aussie hostess, very friendly and with lots of local knowledge.

The best of the best!

Published on Oct, 2024

What a fabulous tour operator! Must be the absolute best in Airlie Beach and surrounds. Cherene has so much knowledge of the area, it’s history and fauna/wildlife. Very impressive. So far I’ve done the 3 hour Airlie Beach sightseeing and the Cape Gloucester tour, both amazing value for money! There’s definitely more to Airlie Beach & Whitsundays than Hamilton Island and Whitehaven and Cherene will take you to hidden gems and share so much interesting information with you. I absolutely rate the service of these tours 10 out of 10. She picks you up from your chosen location and drops you back after the tour. Her bus caters for a small group which gives the tour an intimate feel. Nothing is too hard for Cherene. Love her positive attitude and customer service. A real pro. I honestly can’t wait to go back and try a few of the other tours that are on offer!

A little bit of everything

Published on Oct, 2024

An amazing relaxing day! Cherene is the perfect guide with a wealth of knowledge, full of passion and respect for the environment and who makes everyone feel warmly welcomed. Visited some hidden gems my favourites Froggies Beach and Cape Gloucester. Lunch at Cape Gloucestor resort with cool tunes playing, free time to relax and swim in clear waters my the highlight. Great value, great tour. Grazie Cherene Vilma

100% recommend, would tour again.
