great experience

5.00Mike is a great guide. He shared personal insights into his life, about challenges, decisions, and the courage to follow his heart. It was incredibly authentic and inspiring for me. You can tell right away that he’s a very sensitive person who puts his whole heart into what he does That’s exactly what makes this tour so special.
Great day out!

5.00It was such a great day out. We had Magic Mike as our tour guide and he was so knowledgable and fun and just made sure we were constantly having a good time. The waterfalls were all so cool and some really beautiful areas we visited. Also some great good for lunch which is a bonus.
A super fun day out...

4.00A really fun day out despite the on and off rain! Michael was a great guide who was fun, super informative and really on it with our safety at each location we went to. The highlights for me were Millaa Millaa Falls and Lake Eacham! Food was great, with plenty of snacks and hot drinks to keep us going throughout the day. The only issue was that the day before I was contacted to confirm my pickup location, but I never heard anything back to confirm the meeting point and time. So I waited outside for 40 minutes, nobody answering the phone/ email/ viator app, before I got picked up.
Great day!

5.00my son (who had his 16th birthday on the day of the tour) and I spent a happy, fun filled and adventurous day with a busload full of lovely young English backpackers and our wonderful guide, Magic Mike. A great mix of fun (games, singing, culinary treats), adventure (waterfalls swims, hikes) and information about this beautiful part of the world. Mike even magicked up a cassowary and rainbow to end the day. Whatever your age, if you have a sense of fun and adventure, this tour is for you!

5.00We had such a great time on the fun, forest & falls tour! Our guide, Oscar was a wonderful young man who made the entire experience memorable from start to finish. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the beautiful Australian rainforest and waterfalls we visited. He took the time to share interesting facts about the local environment, wildlife, and history, while also making sure everyone in the group felt comfortable and included. His enthusiasm was contagious, and you could tell he genuinely cared about making sure we had the best experience possible. The day was perfectly paced with plenty of time to enjoy the scenery, take photos, and really soak in the beauty. His professionalism, positive attitude, and great sense of humour made the tour even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. If you’re lucky enough to have Oscar as your guide, you’re in for a great day exploring some of Australia’s most beautiful natural spots!

5.00It was my son’s 16th birthday and I wanted a fun, adventurous and memorable day for him which this tour more than delivered. Magic Mike made rainbows and cassowary’s appear ( true!) and with 20 happy, young and friendly backpackers for company my son was thoroughly entertained. Happy memories all round.
