Yes. Day tours run about 9 hours and cover highlights such as Lake McKenzie and Eli Creek, depending on the tour. They leave from Hervey Bay, Rainbow Beach and Noosa. If you join from Noosa, allow about 1.5 hours of extra travel each way to Rainbow Beach.

A 3-day tag-along camping tour is the most popular choice, as you drive your own 4WD in a social group. The Dingos 3 Day and Pippies 3 Day tours are our best sellers. If you only have a day, choose a guided day tour. See our solo traveller tours.

On a guided tour, a driver and guide take you around in their vehicle. On a tag-along tour, you drive your own 4WD in a convoy behind a guide. Tag-along tours are more hands-on and social but have driver requirements, so check age and licence rules on each tour page.

Tours leave from Hervey Bay (crossing from River Heads), Rainbow Beach (crossing from Inskip Point) and Noosa (via Rainbow Beach). Brisbane and Gold Coast travellers usually travel to Rainbow Beach or Hervey Bay first. Read how to get to K'gari (Fraser Island) for options.

Yes. K'gari is the island's traditional name from the Butchulla people, the Traditional Owners, and it's now used alongside Fraser Island. You'll see both names on tour listings, maps and park signs.

K'gari is home to wild dingoes, and encounters are common. Keep a safe distance, never feed them, keep children close and follow your guide's and the national park's advice.

Humpback whales visit the waters off Hervey Bay from July to October, and our whale watching tours run in that season. Outside whale season, cruises such as the Beach & BBQ Cruise (November to June) and the Eco-Sailing Dolphin Adventure offer other wildlife encounters.
