Brisbane to Cairns

“I had a really great time ! Before the tour started I was a bit unsure how everything is gonna be bit I do not regret anything !!!! I did a group travel and the people in my group became like a family for me. Everything was perfectly organised with no issues ! It’s the perfect tour for you if you want safety and having everything (accommodation, activities, etc.) figured out but still have lots of freedom by deciding on your own. I would recommend this to everyone!!!”

“My experience with travel buddies was fantastic from booking through to the entire trip. The trip was very well organised and they were always on hand to help. I highly recommend booking the east coast trip with travel buddies.”

“Travel buddies has made it super easy to travel the east coast by booking and organizing everything I need! Reps meet you along the way and are super quick to respond if you have any questions.”

“Super well organised, good communication and great activities! Useful and helpful local recommendations too.”

“I did the east coast trip and loved it so much, so many amazing experiences included and was easy to add on the extras if you wanted to. I had a very small group size and think it would have been better being a few more people to be honest, but we met so many others along the way so was still great! The Whitsundays was probably my favourite part!! The travel buddies team were super helpful with everything and gave really clear instructions to follow of where to be and what times etc. I thought it was very well organised. I enjoyed it so much I also did the New Zealand tour afterwards and that was equally incredible, what a beautiful country!! Lake Tekapo and Queenstown were my favourite spots here (The bungee jump is a must!!!) A bigger group size on this trip was definitely better. Overall would absolutely recommend!!”

“I did the East Coast tour from Sydney to Cairns, and honestly, it was one of the best things I’ve done while in Aus. You get a built-in friendship group from day one. I joined this trip solo but within a few days you really start to get know to people and by the time we finished we all felt super close. Doing this tour made the whole East Coast experience feel effortless and it was pretty emotional saying goodbye at the end. From the beginning the Travel Buddies team were super helpful with booking any extra activities and quick to answer any questions. In the group chat we got sent recommendations and travel reminders which made everything run super smooth. My highlights were for sure the Whitsundays sailing trip; you see some unreal beaches, reefs, and sunsets. And of course being able to start the tour with a group of strangers and finish as friends :)”

“Jeremy was excellent, very quick to respond and catered for every request. Nothing was too much to ask for! I had to do very little organising for this trip Jeremy made a custom itinerary for me and was able to alter to suit our preferences. Would highly recommend Travel Buddies for any custom itineraries”

“I did the East Coast tour from Sydney to Cairns and I loved every minute! Before even travelling to Australia, the entire booking process was so smooth and I was given all the info I needed well in advance, which really helped reduced the nerves of being a solo/ first-time traveller. I was lucky have an absolutely amazing group of people travelling with me - we had so many fun experiences and all loved to go on adventures and try new things so it was so fun to share memories (and a few laughs) with them. My favourite experience had to be the time on a sailboat through the Whitsundays, with a gorgeous sunrise and white sandy beaches greeting us each day. Definitely recommend for a first time traveller with a love of exploring and adventures (and also people who want to take away the stress of having to meticulously plan travel arrangements and accommodation on the trip). I would do it all over again if I could!”

“I travelled through Australia with travel buddies and it was amazing, everything was well organised i had few to none problems. And they will be there for you when you need them!”

“Everything is so well organised and they prioritise you getting the best experience!”

“Had the absolute time of my life doing the 32 day east coast Australia tour back in January. Travel Buddies sorted absolutely everything for me, all I needed to do was be in the right place at the right time.”

“Best group trip ever - we had a lot of free days and could decide what to do, but travel buddies was always in the background and you could reach out to them, when you needed help or ideas about what to do”

“Did the east coast trip and it was such a great month! Met some lovely girls in my group and many others along the way. Made travelling super easy with everything planned, all you had to do was turn up, and follow tips and directions via the WhatsApp’s group. Best month of my life, very action packed! Would 100% recommend travel buddies.”

“Travel Buddies were extremely easy to communicate with and so polite and helpful, they made my whole experience in australia the absolute best ever! special mention to Ellie who helped so much!”

“I had a great New Zealand trip with Travel Buddies! Met some of the best people ever and felt looked after by the Travel Buddies Team! Ellie was really helpful and supportive!”

“I did a Travel Buddies trip last month and it was the best way I have travelled! I’ve done other group tours before but the semi-guided style was so much better - i had more freedom to do more activities I actually wanted, while still having great recommendations and support from the team via Whatsapp. They were super helpful before i booked too and helped me book my other add ons booked like kayaking with dolphins! I had a lovely group who i still talk to today! I really recommend”

“I did the New Zealand travel buddies tour in April. I had probably the best month of my life, the tour included all of the bucket list spots to go in New Zealand, my group was amazing and I love them allllll so much, we made the most amazing memories (karaoke in Rotorua will forever be number 1). The tour itself was perfect for me – I loved the independence we all had, the support we got, how easy it was to travel, and the fact that we didn’t need to worry about where we were going next/how we were going next because it was so easy – we could just live in the moment and enjoy the trip and New Zealand! I have recommended this trip to all of my friends at home <3 I have memories and friends that I will have forever. If you’re thinking of doing it – DO ITTT”

“I did the 24 day New Zealand group tour and had such a good time. Met great people, and loved everything that was planned for us.”

“Travel Buddies were perfect for planning my solo trip to the East Coast! Jeremy was a great help planning my itinerary, always quick to respond, flexible with my changing requests, and proactive with recommendations. The smooth booking process and the reassurance that group activities are built in to help me meet other travellers made me feel confident booking a solo adventure. The trip is still ahead of me, but the planning experience alone was excellent. Highly recommend for anyone looking to build a flexible, custom solo itinerary!”

“My booking experience has been fantastic, especially with the help of Jeremy! He’s been incredibly helpful throughout the process and has answered all of my questions. I’ve felt really supported with everything, and I can’t wait for my Australia and Fiji trip! 🇦🇺🌴🇫🇯✨”

“Had such a good 31 days and Ellie was amazing”

“I like that I’ve managed to experience so much in just one month.”

“Was absolutely amazing and amazing organization!”

“That was really perfect ! Enjoyed everything”

“Nice communication with the team !”

“was great, new friendships”
