Bad experience

Very bad. We hardly understood what the tour guide said. The van is too old to be used to serve tourists. We were charged at 189 per person for 5.5 hours tour which was ridiculous regarding the quality of service provided and in comparison with other providers. We would recommend the operator to upgrade his van and at least speak slowly so we can understand.
Not value for money

Driver was late!(10mins), we were dropped off at Aborigine Art Gallery and he disappeared until time to pick up for next drop off location...this was how the tour went..we felt this was strange, even though the locations gave us information, taken out to Emily and Jesse Gaps and afternoon tea(was delicious), drove back to Anzac Hill for Sunset which we nearly missed and he acknowledged that...found it hard at times with his accent to understand...was not worth $432’s...
Informative and Entertaining

Best part was the telegraph station, otherwise most of the tour was boring. Tour guide was very knowledgeable though. If you like museums then do this tour. Wasn’t much to really see in Alice springs.
