The best experience and well worth the money. It's a must do.

It was the last thing we did on our holidays and it was worth the wait. You have to do it to see the real beauty of the reef. We had an awesome pilot and she made sure she showed us parts we wanted to see. 10 out of 10 for tour and her. Will do it again with the beach landing next time.
