It is the rainy season! We tried twice to fly but couldnt get out. Viator promptly arranged for a refund without having to apply. Good job! The Green Island trip and reef tour was typical tourist but our speed. We are not divers. Cant come this far and not go there. Cairns was great.

The plane was a very new one and it was a really nice one. The pilot was very knowledgeable. Had a really great view of the Reef from the top. You should go do this. We went through Viator but the vendor was GSL Aviation. They were very nice. Highly recommended. The pilot even offered to take pictures of us after the flight.
