Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Daintree Air Services, Terminal 1, Tom McDonald Drive Cairns Airport, Aeroglen, Cairns, Queensland 4870 Australia

Daintree Air have been showing clients the very best of the Great Barrier Reef for over 35 years. We know the best places to view from the air, snorkel from the surface and or dive from below the surface. It has taken us half a life time to learn just a little about the Great Barrier Reef. Let us pass this knowledge and information onto you. 

The experienced team will advise you on the optimum time for viewing and photographing the the magnificent aqua blue and opal like colors of the Great Barrier Reef. Flights organised between 9:30am and 2:30pm will always be premium times to fly due to the sun being at the best angle overhead the reef.

The route flown will usually take in Green Island, Upolu Cay, Oyster, Arlington, Vlassof and Michaelmas Reefs as well as views of Cape Grafton, False Cape, Double Island and the Northern Beaches of Cairns including Palm Cove.

Brilliant flight, very efficient & well organised. Really enjoyed this as part of our bucket list holiday. Lovely obliging people who even took us into Cairns after the flight in their minibus. Would definitely recommend it

This trip was absolutely amazing. Trip of a lifetime!!! Joey our pilot was knowledgeable funny and thoughtful to his passengers. We saw a turtle, shark, Eagle Ray manta Ray and so much of the stunning reef. I'd literally do it again tomorrow.

Amazing trip! We were very happy to have Joey as our pilot. He made us feel safe throughout the flight, gave us plenty of information and also humour. The views of the Barrier Reef were stunning and we were even able to see some marine life. Everything ran to time and the whole team were very friendly. We would highly recommend this tour!

Everyone had a great attitude and lots of laughs. The pilots were very professional but lite. The flight was plenty of time and the flight pattern was awesome to get great views of the GBR.
