5.00What a great relaxing and informative day out. Jono and Whitey were excellent guides and skipper. (After all, the LARC is classed as a vessel) The tour of the Lighthouse and Museum was well guided by the volunteers who are living on site. Well done, folks.
Just Wow!

5.00There's nothing to add to all the previous reviews, only to say that if you can't give it 5 stars you're pretty hard to please.

5.00Had the best day on the LARC paradise tour at 1770 this weekend celebrating my sister-in-law’s 40th birthday. Everything was so well organised, the food was great, and the tour guide and skipper kept us entertained all day. Plenty of laughs, beautiful scenery and a really unique experience. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a fantastic day!

5.00Great day trip out from 1770 to Bustard Head Lighthouse. The crew Jono and Whitey are legends and have so much knowledge along the way makes the whole day entertaining and informative. The ride on the LARC is great fun and the lighthouse tour and museum is fantastic. Highly recommend this tour.

This trip passed our expectations in Everett way. The light house and sand tobogganing were super fun. Thanks very much
