  we took the tour from the gold coast .there were only 4 people in the group us and 2 people from japan.neither spoke the others language but the driver conducted a description of what we were to see and the accompanying landscape.the only words were fully understood were byron bay.i really can not fault the driver as we had problems with accents our entire trip.as we have aged our ability to discern accents has decreased.our first stop was the lighthouse .it was a short walk from the parking area to the lighthouse.the driver took our picture and i took some of the views down to the rock.i decided to take the steps down to the rocks below and to a surfing beach which the driver said was there .since i had time i start the walk.what one should realize the a walk down means a walk up steps going down were a lot more difficult coming up.i stop to take pictures and slowly made my was down,so far so good .the tow japanese girls in our group briskly walked by down to the rocks below.i made it as far as i could and i realized i would not make kit down to the rock formation below.i did get a picture of the surfers and one of the girls on the rock formation.oh ot have young legs.i started back but it was a struggle and i was drained .i told the driver guide that there was no was the girls would be back in time.i barely finished my words when they hopped into the van barely winded .next stop the town.i consisted of 3 up streets and 3 cross streets with shop and restaurants lining both sides of the street .the walk start in a drizzle but it turned into a bright sunny day.we had 3 hours to eat and shop.when we were younger 3 hours would only allow us to cover one block but we had no difficulty covering the entire town.the entire had no traffic lights nor did i see crashed cars.hard to believe.we walked to the park and beach and enjoyed the view.my wallet was happy that we did not come to the town 30 years ago as they really had some wonderful shop.we only had lunch and a pastry .this little town was beautiful and worth the one hour ride from the gold coast

  The driver was really informative and helpful with photos. We had lots of time at the lighthouse and the town. Though in total the trip could have been 1-2 h longer for those, who just visit Byron for a day trip. We had to drive back at 4 pm.

  Pleasant day out , must see attraction enjoy the view , the pretty little beach town and of course the beach. Take note that 3 to 4 hours of hanging around the little town center is way too much time unless plan to sunbath, swim or take a hike from the lighthouse all the way down to the beach town center. Overall, it was a fabulous experience with excellent informative guide and I enjoyed the smooth comfortable ride in a clean mini van.

  Great visit to the Byron Bay lighthouse and township but disappointed not to visit the Fruit Farm that was advertised in the broucher. Driver stated that they no longer visit there so I think it should be removed from the advertisement.

  Great walk up to the lighthouse. We went via the road on the way up and came down along the boardwalk. Very windy up the top near the lighthouse but georgeous views. Small cafe with hot drinks available. Keep,your eyes peeled for dolphins frolicking in the bays. We saw a few pods bobbing through the waves. I found the walk down the boardwalk at times easier than the road but there are a not of stairs and hard on the knees. Well with the walk.

  Our guide Kazu was attentive caring and sensitive to the needs of a multicultural trip. He is an asset to this company. A nice tour with plenty of free time to explore the sights. A tip if you are doing this trip in summer , bring your swimmers, it is an amazing beach.

  It was our first time to visit Byron Bay, it was really nice place. Tour guide was really kind and telling us lots of stories about the town. Recommend anyone who never been to Byron Bay to join this tour.
