The trip with Australian coastal safaris was amazing. The Australian Coastal Safaris team was incredible during our stay in Port Lincoln. They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and our trip picture perfect. David helped us make our time memorable taking us for sand surfing, watching the beautiful sea and the koalas & kangaroos . I have taken back beautiful memories with me which I will cherish forever. Highly recommend Australian Coastal Safaris and would love to be with them once again. Cheers.

This three day trip was the best bit of a six week tour of west and south Australia. We had a lovely driver guide, a keen birder who took us around the national parks and other nature spots. Very knowledgeable lady. We had walks and tours at our own pace, saw lots of wildlife, including a visit to a private station which had a number of Koula at close quarters. We also went out on boat trip to oyster farm. Accommodation was supposed to be simple but was anything but. A designer house suitable for home magazines on the beach with views of the bay to watch the fishing boats come and go. Highly recommended. Thanks to the team especially Fran.

This was a different trip to our last one, we collect cockles at coffin bay, we relaxed whole day went diving for abalone and then we went to a beautiful beach where Dave cooked lunch for us. I have never tasted seafood like this, so delicate and fresh.
In the afternoon we went fishing and had a great time before Dave took us back to our apartment.
Thank you so very much to Renae for listening to what interests we had and making the choice of outing so special for us and to Dave for all his expertise and cooking skills.

What a fantastic day trip, custom designed to what my husband and I wanted to do with the expertise of Renae and Dave to give us the best day.
Can praise them enough, from our first contact with Renae on the phone to our supper and camp fire with Dave at the end of the day.
Dave’s knowledge is outstanding in respects of the history of the places we visited, and thanks to his knowledge we were able to see and experience local wildlife up close and he is such a fun guy to be with.
Thank you both so much for making our trip to Por Lincoln extra special.

Renae from the very first phone call could not be more helpful.
We hired 4 ebikes and had a wonderful week of exploring. So easy to go long distances on the bikes. Excellent support offer from Renae if we required it.
Had a one day private tour with Renae at the beginning which was a highlight of the week. Met very talented locals who were inspiring in what they have achieved. Got the knowledge from Renae as to where to go for our rides.
We all 4 would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company to deal with. 5 star plus service.

Many thanks for this fantastic review Mary & we certainly are very blessed to have Renae as part of our team. You have hit the nail right on the head as she really does set the scene right from the very first contact so this means a lot to us. And very pleasingly, you got to experience what you did come on down here for & hopefully a little bit more! Our many thanks again for taking the time out to write a review & coming down here to our beautiful backyard to see what we do! All the very best, David

My husband and I had a fantastic, exciting and absolutely unforgettable 'Hunting and Gathering' with David from Australian Coastal Safaris. It was definitely the highlight of our three-week trip to South Australia (even though we did lots of great stuff). David was friendly, knowledgeable and completely at home at the different sites we visited. We collected cockles, (he) snorkelled for abalone and we caught some fish off a surf beach - and then David cooked us up a wonderful meal of what we have caught/gathered (as well as some other nice stuff he pulled out of the back of his 4WD) right there on the beach. We were able to visit beaches and experience stuff that would have been impossible to do on our own. And, all the while, we felt perfectly safe in David's capable company. Thank you for a positively perfect day.

Australian Coastal Safaris was the highlight of our holiday in Port Lincoln. We booked the Ebike Mountain Bike National Park Tour to kick off our five day stay and safe to say Renea set the standard high. The Ebikes were impeccable, each a selected size and style to suit each rider. We quickly became comfortable with the power assist settings during the leisurely ride around the Harbour, points of interest and canal side homes of Port Lincoln before enjoying the natural trails of the Lincoln National Park. We whisked along easy open firm sandy and narrow shady trails surrounded by greenery and the magnificent scenery of the water. Mid tour we stopped at Sleaford Mere and climbed the huge sand dunes to take in the breathtaking views of the Peninsular Coastline and Indian Ocean while munching on a delicious picnic lunch. A truly unique experience before heading back meeting some of the previous now familiar trails were we all notched up the power and raced each other back to HQ. Renae even took the time to drop us into town to enjoy coffee and share stories about the day. A huge thank you to Renae and the team, we cant wait to get back to Port Lincoln to enjoy more adventures with Australian Coastal Safaris. Stacy James Hannah and Damien

G'day Stacy, Our many thanks to you for taking the time out & writing such a great review on your Electric Mountain Bike Experience with us. So pleased to know that you had a superb day out with Renae & that this was the highlight of your Port Lincoln visit. Your spot on, she is a jet & a very important member of our team here who always goes the extra yard to look after our guests! The EMTB's are such a fantastic & sustainable way to look around our region. Very sustainable, healthy & to breath in some fresh ocean air as your riding around is certainly a great way to experience the National Park & surrounds - something that you cannot do in motor car, plus gain a little bit of fitness!! Our many thanks again & please come back to visit again! All the very best, David
