Donna_R, Feb 2025
Fantastic tour! Matt showed us many sights and took us to a wildlife sanctuary where we were able to see various animals and even pet a couple. He even took some pictures of us that I cannot wait to get. I highly recommend his tour. Thanks Matt!

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Hey Donna! Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m thrilled you enjoyed the tour and had the chance to get up close with the wildlife. I hope you love the photos as much as I had pleasure in taking them! It was truly wonderful spending the day with you both - thanks again for your fantastic company. All the best, Matt

This was an amazing...

Emily_K, Dec 2024
This was an amazing experience! Our humor really matched Matt, our guide, so we had a lot of fun together! I'd highly recommend this tour to anyone, especially if you're staying in the city but want to compress seeing all of Australia's diverse terrain in a day. You will not regret taking this tour! We started our day with a short bushwalk to learn about plants that aboriginals used for medicinal value. We then went horseback riding for a few hours and even saw two wild wallabies darting in the woods! Followed by a conservation park with free roaming roos. We then had a wonderful lunch at a gorgeous cove and did a little hiking on the rocky beach/cliffs. We topped it off with seeing a natural flying fox colony!

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Emily! Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was an absolute pleasure guiding you both and sharing a lot of laughs along the way! Australia’s diverse landscapes are remarkable, and I’m so glad you felt the tour captured it. The flying fox colony is always a special highlight, and I love that you enjoyed the natural beauty of our majestic coastline. Thank you for recommending the tour so highly - it means a lot! If you’re ever back in Sydney, I’d love to show you more of this amazing country. Safe travels! Yours in adventure,
