Jayden was an amazing tour guide, so much information, brilliant presentation, about the eels, the development of Tae Rak and Indigenous culture

This was an outstanding experience. Ruben was a brilliant guide providing an insightful journey into indigenous culture, practice and lifestyle in this extraordinary environment. I was once again introduced to the wonders of the indigenous "calendar" (the first time was in Kakadu). It is distressing to me that in my 70s I am only just becoming aware of this amazing element in indigenous culture! Why is it that I know (from school) more about ancient Greece and history of the British Empire and almost NOTHING about the amazing culture that we live amongst!!! Just do the tour - you will be entranced.

A fantastic cultural learning experience! The tour guide was exceptional. We spent an extra day at Mt Gambier so we could visit and are very glad that we did.

Had an amazing time learning about the Budj Bim culture and landscape and to quote our guide (quoting Adam Goodes) 'history of long ago and not so long ago'. Very informative, tour information was well structured and interesting for Australians ond overseas visitors. So lovely to see water returned to the lake. After the tour we had a wonderful tasty lunch at the cafe. All the staff and guides were really friendly and helpfull. Would highly recommend this experience.

Great possibility to get understanding more about first people lives and attitudes. This trip was very interesting and informative. Although we joined with 2hours group, so could pay less, because we got same trip.

The tour was a great educational experience, the guide was very knowledgeable and discussed the many issues both cultural and environmental in a sensitive and realistic way. Beautiful landscape lovingly described and great food in the cafe.

We went on a tour with Ruben as our guide. He was very knowledgeable and interesting and we had great discussions with him. We would highly recommend this tour. The restaurant and the cultural centre was excellent.

Me and my partner done this tour recently and it was amazing! Such an interesting experience learning about the Gunditjmara country and how th indigenous people lived. We had Ruben as our cultural guide who was excellent, very knowledgeable, friendly and passionate. Thank you so much for welcoming us and sharing your stories! Highly recommend.

This is a unique place in the world. A chance to see on country aboriginal culture fist hand, understand deeply the techniques and technology used and learn about the culture and it's struggles and resurgence. Wonderful set up, great lunch (closes at 2pm check the times in advance) We did the half day tour and walked ourselves around the volcano in the morning, but a full day tour would be great. Not cheap, but worth every cent

We loved our tour. Jayden, our guide, was fantastic and we learned so much about Budj Bim, Tae Rak and Gunditjimara Country and history. Thank you for sharing beautiful and incredible Aboriginal culture with us, the oldest continuous living culture in the world.

Very interesting and worth the long round trip from Canberra. On pevious Christmas road trips we have been to Lake Mungo and the Brewarrina fish trap but Tae Rak was impressive in terms of its management within an IPA. Jadyn the guide was very informative regarding the colonial and pre-colonial history of the site and the koalas in the nearby eucalypt plantations.

We have wanted to visit this site for years, and it was a great experience , thank you! It was a wonderful friendly welcome from our guide, who gave us a fascinating insight into the history and culture of the people living here for thousands of years, intertwined with the amazing eel lifecycle, and the hope for the future of this ecosystem as it is cared for once again and restored by the traditional owners. The view over the wetlands and lake was beautiful and the platter was also delicious! And seeing the koala in a tree right by the visitor centre topped our visit off beautifully. Thank you!

Great spot interesting to see how big this crater is , although I think it needs a good tidy up if people are walking around the grass is 3 ft high with chance of snake bite Be careful !!

We had been looking forward to a tour of the Budj Bim World Heritage Area for years (our 2020 booking was cancelled because of Covid). Although this tour was slightly different from the earlier schedule, we thoroughly enjoyed our morning. Reuben, our guide, was engaging and knowledgeable and the boardwalk loop took in some fascinating sites, from stone eel traps, ponds ('refrigerators'), a 'smoking tree' and a physical depiction of the Gunditjmara's seasonal calendar. We also enjoyed a short visit to the Tae Rak aquaculture centre and its excellent cafe. (We will do the afternoon tour another time.) Thanks to the Traditional Owners & to Reuben for sharing your culture & insights into the world.

What an incredible experience. I was camping at Budj Bim National Park and took the two hour Lake Tar Rak tour. Such a warm, friendly and welcoming journey through thousands of years of geological and Cultural Knowledge. Highly recommended . Next time I will take a longer tour !
