We were looking forward to flying to Green Island. The weather the previous day was terrible. Morning of our trip the weather looked extremely better. However the company decided not to fly…. What a pity. No rain, no wind that day! The sun even came out. We had to go to the island by boat which was not as exciting. During the boat trip we kept wondering what made them cancel the flight. Bright sun came out. They could have come to pick us up. Nothing happened. Then in the afternoon I got a refund. It looked low. Calculated the cost of the trip if we had gone by boat. Seemed they had refunded less money than they should have. I wrote them an email. Soon afterwards I got an extra refund. What a disgrace!

The flight was awesome. The island not so much. Amenities were not nice. This review process is just as bad as you are making me say more than I care to

It was an amazing trip out to Green Island with great commentary and humour from our pilot. All the staff were very helpful from start to finish, even organising a tour for us as we landed at Green Island

Sara_W

Excellent day - beautiful helicopter ride, fun activities on Green Island including a glass bottom boat ride and snorkeling. Was a day in Paradise. Good restaurant, pool and showers plus such kind, helpful folks at the heliport office in Cairns and in the Dive Shop on Green Island. A must do!

From when we arrived at the check in staff we were so accommodating and professional. Our helicopter flight was amazing and our pilot shauna was highly knowledgeable.

The most amazing 20th wedding anniversary experience. Helicopter ride and pilot was fantastic, I would highly recommend this to everyone. The views are breathtaking, the reef is just beautiful

James_O

The trip to Green Island was a perfect day. The helicopter ride over was breathtaking with beautiful views. The staff were professional, courteous and helpful. The time on Green Island was relaxing and enjoyable. Many activities were available, including a tour over the reef in a glass bottom boat, snorkeling, walks, and beach time. It was nice to have so much time to ourselves. The packed picnic lunch that was provided was excellent - with too much food. The boat ride back provided a good end to a perfect day.
