    It was a great tour and very enjoyable. Neil was very informative about local birds, animals, fish, plants and history. It was well paced with an hour or so to chill over lunch at lovely Horseshoe Bay. I highly recommend it.

    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.

    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.
