The trip was an unforgettable Journey and Geoff our guide was absolutely exceptional. I can confidently say Geof really made the trip really special for us. From the moment we met, it was clear that we were in the hands of a professional who genuinely cared about our experience. Geoff was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the area, sharing fascinating insights and stories that brought each location to life, but also warm and approachable. This combination made us feel welcomed and engaged throughout the tour. Whether we were exploring the beautiful coastline in Lincoln National park, the sandunes, whalers way, or enjoying seafood in port Lincoln, he went out of his way to ensure everyone was comfortable and having a great time, which made a significant difference in our overall experience. I highly recommend this trip, especially if you have the chance to be guided by someone as passionate and dedicated as ours. It truly enhanced our adventure and left us with lasting memories.

What a great day! We’re a family of 4 from Brisbane and had a fabulous day with our guide Ian. He was happy & friendly from the moment he picked us up and went above & beyond to ensure we all enjoyed ourselves. We had already seen the National Park the day before so he kindly altered our itinerary to accommodate us. He’s a long time local of Port Lincoln & Coffin Bay with a wealth of local knowledge & many interesting first hand stories to tell. Ian was great company and walking around town he knew nearly everyone we passed with a smile & a wave :) Thanks for a fabulous day Ian, we’ll have to come back for more more trips with you!

WOW!!! What an unexpected surprise this tour was! Was the highlight of our trip to Port Lincoln (even though we originally came to see a shark!) From start to finish, could not have enjoyed our day more! Did not stop chatting, laughing and learning all day! Super informative, passionate and overall amazing guide “Beebs” showed us the sights of Port Lincoln and Coffin Bay and made the experience amazing with his knowledge and enthusiasm. Felt like we were out with an old friend for a day trip! Great food, great banter and would highly recommend this tour to everyone! 10/10 if I could give 6 stars I would!!!

We saw places we could never have seen on our own. Ian was very informative

Great sightseeing and getting a close look at the wildlife
