Deciding on the most suitable option to experience Fraser can be tricky. If you feel that an off-the-beaten track kind of day trip is for you, then Tasman Venture’s Remote Fraser Island Experience could just be the perfect one. This trip doesn’t go to all the famous hot-spots such as Lake Mckenzie, Maheno Shipwreck, and Eli Creek. Instead, it strays away from the rest of the day tours, so expect a unique experience like nothing else.
This flexible tour includes everything from fishing, kayaking, and bush walking across the untouched west side of the island. If you’re chasing something different, then don’t look past this tour. Forget set itineraries and stopwatches and just go with the flow. This trip has all the necessary island essentials needed for a belter of a Fraser Day Trip, such as a picnic lunch, all park fees, ferry crossing, gear, and guides.
