We had an unbelievable day, swimming and jumping into amazing waterfalls and swimming spots. Our tour guide was lovely, very friendly and informative but didn’t talk too much like on some tours I have done and let you rest on the bus between stops. Great lunch stop and perfect amount of time in each swimming spot to really enjoy the stops.

Liked very much the waterfalls and the lake, but the tour included looking for platypus and they didn't even tried to make that stop, and that's the reason why I booked this tour

One of the best tours I have ever been on, it had the most beautiful scenery that just made me feel so ant peace while on the tour I met some amazing people especially the internationals! I got to learn about people and why they are here and on the excursion.

A long day with a lot of driving but definitely rewarded by the stunning views and swimming spots. The day was quite wet so we couldn’t go in at Josephine falls but everywhere else we were able to go for a dip. Got a bit cold going from place to place on air conditioned bus in wet swimming togs. Perhaps this could be adjusted but there was a lot to pack into the day so time was limited in order to get to everything. Lunch was nice and staff friendly and attentive.
