Our tour guide Tim was very friendly and informative. Got a real feeling of the island and loved the visit to Tim’s property, a real slice of heaven. The highlight for us was feeding the rock wallabies.

You get to see the whole island and learn a lot about it. A lovely morning tea is provided in an a beautiful setting. The bus driver is very knowledgeable and happy to have a chat. Very relaxed tour.

Neil was an excellent guide- very interesting, very knowledgeable, a great sense of humour and very willing to tweak the schedule to suit everyone’s needs. We saw rock wallabies and a koala with a joey in her pouch. A must do trip.

Had a wonderful trip. Neil was so knowledgeable about the island and it’s history We left the tour at Horseshoe Bay as the girls wanted to swim and spend time on the beach. Neil was helpful in explaining how we could get back to the Sealink Terminal. Nothing was too much trouble for him. A great tour - highly recommend
