great barrier reef Travel Reviews

Jul 20, 2007
I had a great experience not only swimming in but also flying over the great barrier reef. I saw many sharks and other sea life. However the helicopter ride was about $500.00. It was well worth this once in a lifetime experience. I just found out that next yr. I will be back visiting the ausi land again. But this time my visits will be the other side. Including perth and melbourne, along with the great city of sydney. I visited sydney the time we went to the great barrier reef. Now I can say I've been to both sides of the down under land.
The only bad part was while we were on the cruise , at the last minute we found out from fellow passengers, that this cruise was continuing to new Zealand. But it was to late to change travel plans. This will be another trip sometime in the future.
