Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Michelle was such an interesting guide and patient so we could all get the full experience. The day was so interesting and fun and I had wished I could have done the early morning trip with Michelle. I will come back again to do it all again ! Platypus and felix were the icing on the cake or should I say pie which was our excellent lunch I saved half for my evening meal. Thank you Michelle for such a great memory. Wishing you all the best Suzanne Clarke from Norfolk in England UK

Had a terrific time. Ample time to see and explore this beautiful region and the guide Michelle had so much passion, it made the day extra special. She puts so much heart and soul into these tours.
Honourable mention goes to meeting Felix The Bull on the way to our swimming hole. He’s an absolute charmer and have been telling all my friends about him.

The views were amazing, Michelle was very knowledgeable and it was a great experience. She even took us for some short hikes and gave us tonnes of information and a beautiful breakfast spread.

Such an amazing trip! So worth waking up for. Michelle is so lovely and informative. We got to see kangaroos, wallabies and some joeys on the beach as well a gorgeous sunrise. After a lovely breakfast (with much needed coffee) we had a nice walk through the diversity trail where Michelle taught us about different plants, wildlife, culture and history. It was made even more personal as she told us stories of her past and things only a local would know. Michelle also took loads of photos of us with the wallabies etc so we can really cherish the memories. She is such a lovely person and went above and beyond helping us and the others out with different contacts and recommendations which made our time in Mackay even better. Couldn’t recommend this trip more! It can be difficult to find the number - go on their website and give the number a call - it helped us book the night before!! Michelle - you’re amazing!

What a beautiful morning we had with Michelle. Time to see the wallabies doing their thing, and then plenty of time for a walk in the beach before breakfast.
Massive thanks to Michelle for such a lovely morning. What a friendly, knowledgeable host she is!

Where do I begin! What a beautiful soulful morning. Michelle you are a wealth of knowledge and kindness. Had the best morning on this adventure tour that was more than just a sunrise with the wallabies it was everything you could ask for and more. The hot coffee and muffins were also a delight! Michelle thank you for your educational walk and all the laughs we had, I have made memories to last a life time . 11/11 would recommend!!!

We had a fantastic time with Michelle at Hatton Gorge and Eugnella Nationalpark. It was a very nice hike in a beautiful nature. We enjoyed the lunch with the best pie we have ever had. We also spotted a platypus which was amazing. Michelle took a lot of great photos of us. We can recommend this tour very much.
