Fabulous! I'm so pleased to have booked this tour for my mum and me. My mum is visiting Australia for the first time, and this has been her favourite tour.
Our guide, Rob, is absolutely gorgeous. Very personable and knowledgeable, he kept us entertained and informed while also allowing us some downtime on our own (e.g., at the Sanctuary or napping in the car). The car is fantastic to travel in.
We were lucky to be in the company of other lovely guests with whom we had a great time.
My mum and I loved the tour's structure: it picked us up not too early but timely enough for us to enjoy everything at a nice pace (she isn't fit and walks slowly, needing breaks—she was completely comfortable with the tour program).
The visit to the sanctuary was fabulous, Rob explained to us everything he knew and allowed space for us to tell stories, fostering dialogues, so it was more like hanging out with friends than being on a tour - in a good way.
The fine-dining lunch was sensational - and the location! We are still dreaming of it. Rob never rushed us, and again, by lunch, it all felt like sharing a meal with new friends - it was so lovely and comfortable. Rob played a big part in making sure that everyone felt that way.
The wine-tasting experience was great as well, with beautiful locations and highly experienced staff. I'm not much of a drinker myself but my mum is, and she appreciated the Australian wines so much.
Compared to other tours, this one is not expensive and is worth every cent. I give this tour 5 super stars!
