Camille, our guide, was amazing! She made our day so special. When you get to 12 Apostles, you have an opportunity to take a helicopter ride over the rock formations for an extra charge. It’s so worth it, 10/10, definitely recommend! Such an amazing day with great memories and photos with Camille and GoWest tours.

Mitch is an excellent guide with a very cool and down to earth personality. He went above and beyond to make the experience great for everyone. Been touring around in Melbourne for sometime now but the hospitality shown by Mitch is unmatched. The man is fully invested in showing every nice place possible on this trip with full respect for people from every culture. The locations on this tour are spectacular and can’t be missed. Mitch is not just a driver, he is a true guide who is super proud of Australia! 5 stars for this one and totally recommend it.
