Mahesh provided a relaxing tour of Alice Springs providing a great knowledge of the regional history. Some wonderful stops along the way providing full colour of the local landscape, culminating in a great sunset overlooking the township.

Backpacker deals take your money, then cancels, then keeps your money. Total rip off. Do not book through these people.

This tour operator and organization is exceptional!!!! Don’t book with any of the other big name companies offering tours . We met many of the disappointed tourist including ourselves , who were cancelled just before we arrived of were in Alice springs already , leaving us high and dry . Mike (Muhesh) came to the rescue and is very knowledgeable about aboriginal culture . He has all the hot spots to see and makes the whole experience memorable. His tour should have had 12 people but took the four of us stranded by other companies . Brilliant experiences 100%guarantee they will show up .local to the area and was very accommodating to all age groups and abilities. You will avoid the frustration we faced with limited days and three of our tours cancelled with no replacement by the bigger companies (discouveraustralia ,Attkings ) Book direct with them avoid all the middle men ) We had a blast !!!!!! Thanks Muhesh from Dr Kamal Powar ,Dr Nikki Powar and our new friends Sue and Cherry

A wonderful informative and funny time was had by all. The time spent at School of Air and Royal flying Doctors made us realise how vast Australia. Finishing with the Sunset was magical. Would recommend this to anyone who had a afternoon and wanted to see the places of interest in Alice
