  • brooke linda spencer

    Hello with the fraser island tour you get 2 nights on fraser and 2 & 2 nights at hervey bay aswell or is it 2 nights at hervey bay and you go back to fraser the next day ? also self drive what if you dont have a drivers lisence?

    thanks Heaps Brooke

  • admin

    Hello Brooke thanks for the message – you get 2 free nights at the Nomads Hervey Bay hostel and then 2 nights on Fraser Island at our permanent campsite (toliets and showers on site, no need to put up your own tent each day, wet weather rotunda in case of rain and BBQ cooking facilities) Most people have one free night at the hostel before they go to Fraser and then one free night at the hostel when they get back from the trip – but you can choose to have the 2 free nights before the trip or after – it is up to you. If you do book then you need to be at the hostel by 6.30pm at the latest the day before you travel – so that you can go to the briefing and meet your group. You need to have a full drivers license and be over 21 if you want to drive. It’s OK if you don’t have these – you can just travel as a passenger for the trip. Please let us know if you have any more questions – you can call us direct on 07 4125 3601 or email us on bookings@nomadsherveybay.com. You can also make a booking directly online here

    Hi there guys!
    I’ve just been to Fraser Island and I just had the time of my life!!
    It’s such a great place and the Nomads 4wh drive tour is just amazing!
    Crossing around on the beach, windows down and let the fresh sea breeze come in.
    Indian Heads, the Champagne Pools and Lake McKenzie are sooo cool. You’ll definitely have to check the photos!
    Check them at http://www.facebook.com/nomadsfraserisland !!!!
    Cheers!!

    There’s 13 including you. Three Germans – all very reserved, quiet, and very beautiful. Four Irish – two of these being males named Ryan and Niall but for reasons unknown answer to ‘Jimmy’ and ‘Tiddles.’ Two long legged blonde beauties straight out of Oxford. One slick and smooth English guy. An endearing and chatty Dutch Girl. Your boyfriend . . . a quiet and reserved Canadian guy that along with you, hates tours. And then there’s you.You all enter the Fraser Island Tour debriefing the evening before departure. You watch everyone sneaking not-so-sneaky glances around the room. Two groups are formed, communal grocery lists are gently pondered, and then the serious conversation is had. Who is bringing what for alcohol. Friendships are made.It’s an early start the day of departure. Still nervous about being stuck with eleven individuals you don’t know and one individual that hates tours you sit very quietly. You are just starting to think that maybe this isn’t your scene when the heavens open up and Captain Kirk bounces his way to the front of the group. He is a large man with a pony tail that makes you jealous and a smile the size of Australia. He consistently says ‘Happy Days’ and ‘Too Easy’. Things are looking up. He gives you information about Fraser Island that enlightens you that Fraser Island is more than deadly sharks, water, and snakes. It is culture, traditions, and history. And you will learn that first hand by camping on land owned by the Batjala people of Fraser Island. Things are looking great.Each truck is loaded up with food, beverages, sleeping bags, backpacks, and 7 individuals. Captain Kirk assures you he will keep you all safe and gives us a run down on how to not crash the 4×4 as you drive behind him. The ferry ride is a short one as you begin to warm up to your new friends and you realise you’ve lucked out. You have chosen the good tour company.The beach is now your highway as you drive through sand, over tree roots, and through fresh water streams all with your windows down. It is true freedom. There is a massive turtle laying quietly on the beach by the ship wrecked Maheno and dingoes running alongside your vehicle on the sand. Whales slap the water not far out from where you are and washed up jelly fish lie around the beach.Captain Kirk tells you about the island’s history and proves to be a human version of google when it comes to topics like trees, Batjala traditions, and all the diverse flora and fauna of the island. You start to think about Fraser Island as more of a hands on history course. And then you see a brown snake and think of it as a Biologist’s heaven. Both are great reasons for this island to be a World Heritage Site.Lake Wabby blows your mind and leaves you spinning as you roll down the massive sand dune right into the water – sending cat fish scattering about. You visit the Maheno shipwreck where you get a group photo with your new found best friends and you watch the sea eagles finding their dinner. This is when you realise your hungry. The communal dinners are a blast as your new found best friends begin to seem more like few found family. Especially as you jeer eachother about who will do the dishes. Another group enters the camp and card games begin. Captain Kirk is keeping an eye on everyone and conversing with dingoes. Groups intermingle around the fire as toasted marshmellows and potato chips are passed around. Irish songs are belted out around the fire – ‘singing’ is too kind of a word for the noise that goes well into the early hours of the morning. Your tent fits eight people and sleeping bag wars and toe monsters ensue before sleep takes over during the massive sleep over.You wake up to a Batjala man walking around the camp with his traditional chop sticks and didgeroo. He sings you a welcome song that trumps the previous Irish songs and takes you for a walk to show you the hidden jewels of the aboriginal land. While he is a very funny man, he works hard to keep the Batjala culture alive and takes his job of passing on knowledge of the tribe, seriously. And also lets us know that where another tour group sleeps there is a six foot brown snake. By the end of your journey, on the third day you have swam in perched lakes, some with small turtles watching you the entire way, floated down a creek on your back, had water fights in Lake McKenzie, played frisbee at the champagne pools, watched mantarays, turtles, and dolphins from Indian Head, and looked over endless sand dunes. Your memory card is full and your heart is even more full. The three days went faster than you can say K’gari and you want to tell the world that Nomad Tours is the best way to discover Fraser Island.
