    Steven, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. He took great care in getting us to the location and trekking through the forest. It was great to learn about the different insects, creatures, and fauna. He also took great photos of us in front of the waterfalls. Thank you for a great adventure!

    What a wonderful experience! We were able to see wallabies, possums, weta and the glow worms were amazing. We learned about the plants and even had a little to stargaze.
