Fraser Island Touring

K'gari, meaning Paradise in the Butchulla language, is not only a breathtaking World Heritage Listed Island - it's also a fragile, living ecosystem. From ancient rainforests to crystal-clear lakes and iconic sand dunes, the natural beauty of K'gari deserves our respect and protection.

At Fraser Experience Tours, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. As a visitor, you play a vital role in protecting this incredible island for future generations.

Here's how you can help while enjoying your time on K'gari (Fraser Island).

Respect the Wildlife

K'gari (Fraser Island) is home to unique native species, including the purest strain of wild dingoes (Wongari) in Australia.

• Never feed wildlife - it alters natural behaviours and puts animals at risk.
• Keep a safe distance and observe quitely.
• Always secure food, rubbish, and scented items.

Leave No Trace

Stick to marked tracks and boardwalks to reduce your impact on delicate sand dunes, forests and water sources.

• Use designated toilet facilities and avoid using soaps or chemicals in lakes or creeks.
• Pack out all rubbish and leave every site better than you found it.

Travel with Eco-Conscious Operators

By choosing certified and locally-owned eco tour operators like Fraser Experience Tours, you're supporting businesses that:

• Follow sustainable 4WD practices.
• Minimise group sizes to reduce environmental pressure.
• Work in collaboration with the Butchella People, the Traditional Custodians of K'gari.

Stay on the Sand Tracks

Driving off-track damages vegetation, increases erosion, and can disturb sacred sites. Our experienced guides strictly adhere to approved driving routes - something every visitor should emulate, whether on tour or self-driving.

Learn the Cultural Significance

Sustainable travel is not just about nature - it's about people. Learn and respect the stories, customs and heritage of the Butchulla People, who ask all who visit to follow these principles:

• Minyang galangoor gu djaa, kalim baya-m - What is good for the land comes first.
• Minyang waa nyinung, waa bunmalee dhama-n - Do not touch or take anything that does not belong to you.
• Wangou nyin gamindu biralunbar, nyin wumga-n - If you have plenty, you must share.

Why It Matters

Tourism can be a force for good when it's done responsibly. Every action you take, no matter how small, has an impact. Together, we can ensure that K'gari remains a paradise - for wildlife, the Traditional Owners, and future travellers.
