Affiliate Disclosure

When you reserve a cruise or a kayak day through certain links on this site, we can earn a commission from the booking platform. You never pay extra for it. Below is a plain account of how those links work, what the commission funds, and why it changes nothing about the tours we cover or the order they appear in.

When We Earn A Commission

A site like this costs money to maintain. Someone has to read every listing for the upper Noosa River trips, track operator changes through the seasons, and keep the comparison honest as tours come and go. A small cut of each booking, paid by the platform out of its own margin, covers that effort. Your total at checkout is unaffected.

Money never decides placement here. All nine tours, from the two-and-a-half-hour Serenity Cruise to the sustainable kayak days run by Adventure Tribe Aus, earned their spot by being bookable options for this stretch of the Great Sandy National Park. No operator can pay for a higher position, and when the lineup of cruises, canoe combos and kayak trips shifts, the page shifts with it.

The Booking Platforms

Every tour link on this site points to a live listing on one of two booking platforms, GetYourGuide or Viator. The platform takes the booking, processes your payment and sends the confirmation, not us. It also sets the cancellation terms, which is why most listings here carry free cancellation while the kayak tours run by Kanu Kapers do not state it. If anything goes wrong with a booking, the platform's support team is the first stop.

Hotel Booking Links

A few places on the site link to Expedia hotel listings through the Travelpayouts affiliate programme. If you book a stay through one of those links, a commission may be paid to us at no added cost to you. These hotel links are separate from the tour links and follow their own terms, which Expedia sets.

How Tour Links Work

Click any tour and you land on its live booking page, the place where today's price, departure times and remaining seats are actually held. We sell nothing ourselves and hold no tickets. Treat that page as the authority if anything here looks out of step, and send a note so the description can be fixed.

What Never Changes

The commission is carved from the platform's side of the transaction, never added to yours.

Rankings and recommendations are not purchasable either. The guided kayak trips sit at the top of the guest ratings because the listings say so, with the full-day guided tour at 4.9 from 158 reviews. A small outfit like Adventure Tribe Aus is measured by the same yardstick as the largest cruise operator, and no payment softens or sharpens what gets written.

Where The Tour Facts Come From

Numbers on this site are lifted straight from the tour listings. The 4.5 rating across 1093 reviews for the afternoon cruise, the 4.6 across 379 for the six-hour Everglades Explorer, the stated durations and the free cancellation flags all come from there. Before committing, confirm any figure that matters to you on the live listing.
