Small-group Afternoon Cairns City Tour With Harbour Dinner Cruise

Nice tour & guide is good , but he should give more time to palm cove to relax & enjoy , dinner is awsome with proper management

Overall the evening was very nice, boat was well set up and the food was nice, a very pleasant evening. There was a musician that sang most of the evening, she was quite good and was never overly loud. It however started with a phone call from the operator wanting to know where we where? We were waiting at the place where we were advised to wait! As it turned out we were supposed to be boarded already. luckily we were not late but we were the last on. With many different agents using the one operator miscommunications happen. Most of the time we would get a text confirming arrival time and place from the operator but this never happened. I would definitely recommend this dinner cruise.

What a lovely way to start our short stay in FNQ. The afternoon city tour was an absolute delight, our Coach Driver Chris had so much information to share about the places we visited. St Monicas Church had the most amazing stained glass windows and from memory I believe there are 1040 painted panels. Stunning! We visited the museum and found many things of interest to see. Stopped for a delicious afternoon tea of scones and drinks of choice. We then visited the Botanical Gardens and many thanks must be given to Chris our Coach Driver who took us on a walk through the Botanical Gardens pointing out many things of interest and highlighted the most beautiful flowering plants.We went to Alexanders lookout and Palm Cove, beautiful sights to see. We were taken to the Reef Fleet Terminal were it was time to say farewell to Chris and board the Spirit of Cairns for the dinner cruise. The dinner cruise was top quality from the time we boarded until we left 3 hours later. Staff and food on this dinner cruise were excellent. What a lovely day and once again many thanks to Chris.

Excellent. Value for money. Guide Chris is a great source of knowledge about Cairns, the stunningly beautiful stained glass windows, FNQ history and industries and tropical plants. The dinner aboard the cruising catamaran was delicious.

We did the Small Group Afternoon Cairns City Tour. Chris was our driver and guide. He was excellent. Professional and always courteous and entertaining. He had a wealth of knowledge about Cairns, down to the smallest detail, including its history. We were particularly impressed with his plant knowledge at the botanical gardens.

We had a wonderful night enjoying delicious food, meeting new people and relaxing as we cruised. It was a wonderful way for us to start our Cairns holiday.

We had a wonderful time seeing the sights of Cairns, & learning the history of the town. Graeme did a fabulous job, and we loved all the other members of our group. We would recommend this tour to everyone. The dinner cruise was great, & the buffet was delicious. We had such great service.

Great trip. Boat ride to island was easy and calm. Staff were friendly and competent. First time I had snorkelled but I had a ball. Saw so many fish and coral so close to the shore. Great spot for kids too as they can play on the beach. Lunch excellent. Submersible boat experience too. Perfect for me to practise snorkeling. Diving also catered for.

Great cruise, the best food in a dinner cruise. Very good package! Staff very nice and helpfull since beginning of the cruise to the end. I would recommend this cruise.

Chris was a terrific tour guide. He picked us up on time, introduced himself and told us so many interesting facts about Cairns and its history. Our tour went to so many places, we even saw wallabys on the side of the road. Despite the rainy weather, he kept the mood upbeat and positive. Thanks so much!

Had a perfect tour with Guide Chris and saw a lot. The dinner cruise was a little disappointing as it started in the dark without spectacular views .

Very enjoyable and the dinner cruise was lovely especially the nights lights cruising around the bay a lovely way to see cairns

Tours was fantastic Graeme with a E was a great tour guide very informative, But so disappointing with the food service on the boat. Waiters needed to be more attentive to the trays on the buffet, as quite a few were empty when we were asked to go get our dinner.

Nil. The hot food was cold, so cold it spoilt the whole evening. The hot food was so cold you did not need a thermometer to know the temperature was WELL below 60 degrees cel.

Enjoyable Food, wine, service good Nice calm trip Not much of a view because it was dark but very pleasant experience

Excellent tour with a very knowledgeable and friendly operator. We had a terrific time, learning a great deal and finishing with a wonderful cruise and dinner on the Spirit of Cairns catamaran. Highly recommended,,, Tony and Liz.

The day tour around Cairns was fantastic and Ben was really informative about where we visited, lovely day and well worth the experience. The dinner cruise was not what we expected but turned out to be a lovely evening with great food and making new friends

Very knowledgeable guide, Chris, interesting tour with fantastic dinner cruise. Food was excellent, best Barramundi and Calamari I have ever had.

Amazing tour by presenting Cairns in a short time- Cathedral, Botanical garden, the view points are most enjoyable part of the tour. The tour guild , Mitchell is knowledgeable and well explained about Cairns. We enjoyed Cruise Dinner too! Thank for that Wonderful day!

Overall a great day . Would of been nice to stay at palm Cove long enough to have beverage. We were a little disappointed to find that we were under dressed for the dinner cruise . Having come straight from the day tour straight to cruise . Not sure how this could be rectified. ??? But something to think about .

We did this dinner cruise after our short tour of city sights seen local attractions, volunteers full of local knowledge dinner was a buffet style but plentiful cruising was calm but thought it may of been more informative , didn’t see or hear any entertainment even though it was stated in the small print, maybe better for us if it was a celebration dinner or such.but we still had a OK night

An excellent experience and really good value. The Driver/ commentated by Eric sightseeing tour of Cairns was fantastic. The tour highlighted points-of-interest specific to the arts, culture and historical aspects of Cairns, such as the amazing Stained Glass windows at St Monique’s Cathedral, the Cairns Museum and the Botanical Gardens. The Harbour Dinner and City Lights Cruise after the Tour was a perfect way to complete an amazing experience that must not be missed by visitors to Cairns.

Eric - our driver and guide on our City tour gave a pleasant and informative insight to Cairns and surrounds. Highly recommend the tour to enable a more productive experience whilst in Cairns.

The day tour was great. Our guide Eric was super informative and such a nice man. This tour was a good start to our holiday in Cairns, It gave us knowledge of what attractions to see and the taster of the Cairns museum has prompted us to go back there today. It was such a lovely afternoon with a great bunch of strangers who became friends very quickly. Highly recommend. We also did the night dinner cruise, and although the food and service was good, it had no atmosphere and the entertainment never happened. My son was on this cruise a month ago and they had loud music and dancing. We had nothing. There were quite a few dissapointed diners last night. This was no reflection on Cairns Discovery Tours, it seems the cruise people are not consistant with what they advertise.

It was a pretty good experience, the staffs was very friendly which is the most important things to me. Food was nice but more options would have been great but over all I can't complain.

Eric was a great guide. Very informative. Plenty of stops- so many places hidden away. Shanan at the Cairns Museum was fun. Delicious afternoon tea at NOA. The dinner cruise was a lovely way to end the day.

We had an excellent guided tour amd lovely relaxing dinner cruise. Our tour guide Eric was one of the best we have had! We seen some very interesting places in Cairns which we hadn’t heard or seen before! Glad we did this adventure! Absolutely Excellent 😃👍😃👍

The city and cruise tour was amazing. It was my husband’s birthday and have had a great time that day. The tour guide was really friendly and funny.

Small group of about 10 people with a friendly, very experience local tour guide. Good for visitors who want to quickly see around cairns without hiring a car by themselves.

My partner and I did this dinner cruise while we were on holidays in Cairns and it was one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment you walk onto the boat you cant help but smile. The staff were all warm, friendly and very good at their jobs to the point they kept us well involved even when on the deck when our meals were coming out and even when there was a great sunset display. The food and drinks were amazing lots of flavors and variety. Thanks so much for an incredible date night! Highly recommend!!

What a fantastic tour. Our tour guides name was Eric and he was very informative and fun. We saw so much in the afternoon 1/2 day tour. The dinner cruise after the bus tour was absolutely incredible.
