FAQs About Waltzing Matilda Whitsundays Tour

Included in the Waltzing Matilda tour will be all meals, snorkelling and tuition in the Great Barrier Reef. Also included is one night accomodation on board a beautiful sailing boat. You won’t need to pay for anything extra, even snacks, tea and coffee included every day!

The meeting point for Waltzing Matilda is down at the Coral Sea Marina, 1-3 Shingley Drive, 4802. It is always best to email or call Waltzing Matilda 2 days before your departure date, so you know exactly where to meet at the correct time!

No, alcohol is not included on the Waltzing Matilda and you cannot purchase it on board. However it is bring your own alcohol, so you can bring your favourite beers!

Every boat has different rules on alcohol! It is always best to check two or three days before what booze you’re allowed to bring! Nearly all boats don’t allow you to bring glass bottles, hence why spirits or wine usually can’t be brought with you!

You should bring a small overnight bag with you, don’t bring a huge suitcase with you as there is limited storage on board most mosts. You should bring toiletries, 2 days worth of clothes, swim clothing, sunscreen, and any permitted alcohol!

You don’t need to bring closed shoes on the Whitsundays. You will have a chance to go for some rainforest walks, so it is recommended to bring! However it is perfectly safe to just wear sandals.

Three day tours vs two on the Whitsundays. Well, both are fantastic, Travel Hub would say the longer the better! However everyone has their own preference. 2 Days 1 Night Whitsunday trips are great for those whom want a smaller duration, are not confident on boats, on a budget or simply short on time!

There are only 14 guests max on Waltzing Matilda Two Day One Night trip! This is one of the smallest capacities for a overnight boat!!

Amazing service and highly recommended! If you are planning a snorkeling trip to the Great Barrier Reef, this is definitely the place to go. The advice was incredibly detailed, taking the time to explain which reefs and spots offer the absolute best chances to see an abundance of marine life and vibrant corals. What stood out the most was the complete transparency. No hidden fees, honest feedback on the different boats and tours, and clear expectations about what to anticipate. You can really tell that their main goal is to help you find the best possible experience, rather than just making a sale. Looking forward to the tour! Thank you for the fantastic recommendation.

Shout out to Max for his guidance! He listened to my requirements and helped me figure out what I really wanted, and he explained the options in depth. With his help, I was able to have a fun day combining a flight over the reef with an excursion to Fitzroy island. All bookings went smooth. Great service!

Traveled to Cairns and took a day trip to Palm Cove where Charlotte helped create the best experience! I highly recommend working with her for any travel or vacation services.
