Incredible guides, fantastic experience. - We had an INCREDIBLE time. We were originally unsure because we couldn’t find many online reviews which in today’s world can feel scary. But these guys were amazing. They picked us up from our hotel and took us to amazing sites. No one else was on this tour it was just us in their car. They tailored the trip to all our needs. We wanted to get some vigorous hiking in, see wild life, nature, and take in some epic views and they delivered that all in spades. They even packed us a lunch! Phil has an encyclopedic knowledge on the animals in this region. Couldn’t believe the value of this outing. Was the highlight of our trip to the Gold Coast. Next time I’m back I intend to hire them again. I’ve been on a lot of tours and these guys are the best - I recommend them more highly. They make it so easy - no need to hire a car or research to figure out how to get to all these places in x amount of time. They also know off the beaten path sites that are wondrous.

Private tour with a great value for money - We’re incredibly grateful to have found this private tour, it was the perfect experience for our honeymoon. The tour was fully customizable to our preferences, making it convenient and ensuring we enjoyed every moment. It was excellent value for money, as we were able to visit beautiful waterfalls and experience the magical glowworms at night. Ben was an exceptional guide, friendly, accommodating, and great to talk to throughout the trip. He made sure we were comfortable at all times and went above and beyond to make the experience memorable. His Tesla was also incredibly comfortable to ride in, which made the journey between destinations even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely book another tour with him the next time we’re back on the Gold Coast. Highly recommended!

Phil the frogfather: Wildlife Guide extraordinaire!! - We had the MOST FANTASTIC tour with Phil: his knowledge and understanding of the local wildlife was encyclopaedic and he knew where to find the most interesting things to look at. The climax (for me) of our unforgettable trip was a view from the rim of the ancient volcano: the caldera is HUMONGOUS and extends for MILES in every direction: absolutely stunning!! Thank you so much Phil: you are absolutely brilliant! Paul
