The perfect Aussie wildlife experience! A huge thank you to Dave, you has been a wonderful host and made the tour a 5 star experience for us. It started with a very pleasant ride from Sydney Central to a scenic lookout close to Wollongong. From there, Dave took us on two short but very nice walks in the National Park to see magnificent waterfalls. But the highlight came in the evening, when we reached the campground. While Dave was preparing a very nice dinner for us, kangaroos came from all around to bushes. So we ended up having super delicious burgers amongst many kangaroos, absolutely stunning. Later after sunset also the wombats came out. We really couldn’t ask for more.

Dave was a superbly knowledgeable and relaxed guide. He is friendly and knows us all by name. He was so helpful taking pictures and answering questions. I never expected to see so many kangaroos from so close. It was a full and enjoyable day. The food was delicious and the setting magical. Definitely recommended by my 2 teenagers and I.

Dave was amazing and very warm person, found the time to talk with every single person from the tour group. Gave lots of information and the whole trip was amazing. Highly recommended and would go with him again and again.

Despite the bad weather, it was a great tour with delicious food and good company. The tour guide was very personable and we saw a lot of kangaroos and wombats. I highly recommend the tour for everyone.

The guide is very responsible and knowledgeable, I had a great time in Dave's trip.
