About this activity

Discover Fraser Island with a Fraser Dingo Tagalong Tour and be part of a unique and unforgettable 4WD adventure!

Do you want to drive a 4WD but would also like a guided tour? Do you want a 4WD adventure but not so keen on camping? Do you want a small group but still like to socialise? Get the best of both worlds with a Fraser Dingo Tagalong Tour, the perfect balance between adventure and comfort! Explore Fraser Island by day in our pink automatic 4WDs and enjoy the comfort of the accommodation at night (with great food, dorms and hot showers!).

So, what is a Tagalong Tour?? This is where the lead 4WD is driven by our experienced and knowledgeable guide. The following 4WDs are driven by you guys, the customers that nominate to drive on the tour. You don’t need experience driving a 4WD, our thorough safety briefing and experienced guide will make sure you are ready for a once in a lifetime driving experience! Customers tell us it is the best thing they have done in Australia!
