A truly great tour with appropriate group size (14), a wonderful and dedicated guide - Jas made sure everyone was cared for, catered to various needs incl. vegetarian or vegan, and made the trip a humorous, awe-inspiring experience. The order had to be reversed due to holidays but Jas adjusted the schedule flexibly thus we had no disadvantage whatsoever. The only drawback to me was that with just 6 days in total, there was a lot of driving and time at beaches or for leisure was often too tight in my view. I'd recommend going on a longer trip because the end point, Lucky Bay is not to be missed. Perhaps the schedule could be adjusted to skip one or two stops an allow more time at one's own discretion - starting tours at campgrounds so people can decide whether to go on a hike, to a beach or stay at camp. Overall the tour was a good mix of hikes (2-4 tours, 1-3 hours each), beach time (about 4-5 beaches 1-2hrs each time), one cave visit, a guided Aboriginal walk and ~50% driving.

Awesome experience, although it was raining the last 2 nights the camping experience was a lot of fun. stargazing while laying in the swag was fantastic Not everything went how it was planned but the Jasmin the guide found solutions for everything. She is great! at some points I would have loved a little bit more Information about the area but all in all great trip. Thank you!

Lovely tour, really well organized. Sean is a very knowledgeable guide, gives time at destinations and doesn't rush, so you have time to enjoy sites. Also a great cook! Had a great time. Recommend this tour!
