“I loved this tour!! It was such a comprehensive day, and well worth it. My tour guide Phil was amazing and tried his hardest to make sure we got the best views. When we first got there it was super cloudy, but after it cleared up he took us back to an earlier spot just so we could have a good view. We had plenty of time at each stop and I never felt rushed. I would definitely recommend this as a day trip, and you also get back with plenty of time for dinner.”

“This was a wonderful trip and my favorite activity in Australia so far. Our guide Mark was so knowledgeable and personable. Loved the cockatoo's at the end (wear long sleeves for that).
