Yep, you read that right. Your next tropical holiday could cost less than your lunch today – and no, it’s not some random remote camping trip (although we love those too). Townsville North Queensland (TNQ) is tempting visitors to come explore the tropics by offering up ten exclusive mystery holiday packages for just $10 each. Seriously, no catch!

From reef diving and outback safaris to luxury stays and waterfront feasts, these limited-edition getaways are designed to show off the best of Tropical North Queensland. We wish we could spill more details, but the full itineraries are top secret – only revealed when you arrive. For now, all we can share is the ten different themes for TNQ’s $10 holidays: Luxury, Island Time, Reef, Curious Explorers, Wild, Thrills, Play, Taste, Time Travel and Pause.

Among these themes, TNQ has teased a few experiences that might feature on the itineraries, including an adrenaline-pumping dive at the Museum of Underwater Art, adorable wildlife encounters at Billabong Sanctuary, a stunning sunset safari on Magnetic Island, a thrilling helicopter ride over Townsville and a luxury stay at Ardo. You could tick off all these bucket-list experiences by booking your own trip – but why not throw your hat in the ring for one of these suspense-filled $10 trips?
