Gabby Boucher, 24 Mar 23
I had an amazing time on this Noosa Everglades tour! The scenery was so stunning and canoeing was super fun and peaceful. Our local guides were also very nice and had lots of interesting info to share. We had delicious muffins and fruit on our snack break and saw some massive lizards! The tour was the perfect amount of informational, fun, and relaxing. Highly recommend, the Noosa Everglades are gorgeous!
