Worry-free holiday 1 , East Sussex, United Kingdom, Oct 2017
Very well organised which made for a full and varied trip seeing many attractions and doing various interesting activities on our way down the coast. A good balance of coach journeying, boat trips and two-night stays. My room-mate liked to be first down to breakfast and wasn't in a hurry to have lights out at night which meant I got a bit sleep deprived read more and I had a coughing bug which must have kept her awake during the night so be prepared for suchlike if you share.
Wonderful trip down the East Coast 1 , Ontario, Canada, Feb 2017
We enjoyed top notch service from Travelmarvel. The guide and driver were both friendly and accomodating, and we were well taken care of on our journey. Our only complaints were the pace of the tour and one of the accomodations. The resort on Daydream Island has seen better days and our room was not up to the quality we expected. We also felt that adding read more one or two extra nights to the tour would make it nearly perfect. The second half in particular was quite a lot of driving. We would have enjoyed an extra night on the Gold Coast and another stop north of Sydney. That said, we did have a wonderful time and had a great group of people on the bus. We definitely recommend this tour and Global Journeys, which provided excellent service from start to finish.
Fantastic trip   1 , United Kingdom, Sep 2016
My tour from Cairns to Sydney was fantastic from start to finish. I was travelling alone from the UK and felt looked after the whole time. I had some amazing experiences and saw some great places - snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef, palm trees at mission beach, kangaroos on daydream island, sunset on Fraser Island. Our guide and driver, Judy and read more Darryl, were fantastic, the hotels were great, food was good, weather in October fabulous. We had a small group of 20, a mix of nationalities and ages from 30s to 70s and all got on well. Overall, I loved it and would highly recommend both Global Journeys and Travelmarvel.
