    My husband and I recently took a very enjoyable day tour with Peter to Springbrook Nat'l Park. The other people cancelled their tour due to rain forecast, but Peter was very willing to take just the two! We did get wet and were able to see some totally beautiful waterfalls and walks thru the rainforest. Peter was a wealth of information and the day just flew by. We would take another tour with Peter in a heartbeat!!

    This tour was one of the highlights of our Australian Vacation! We set up our private evening wild life, waterfall, and glow worm tour a few weeks before our arrival because the price for a family of four was similar to group tours and we hoped for a more personal experience and it 100% delivered. I am going to call our guide "Eagle Eye" Peter because he spotted so many things we would have missed. After being picked up at our resort and instantly falling into great conversation, we went to a local wildlife reserve and "Eagle Eye" left us within a mob of kangaroos and said he was going to see if any koalas were in the area... away he bounded as we took photos with the kangaroos who bounced away when we got to about 3-4 feet but still great photos! I saw "Eagle Eye" dashing from corner to corner of the reserve before 20 minutes later he came back having spotted a koala which he brought us to and taught us how to tell is was a male or female and signs of koalas being in the area! it was a nice little maybe mile or so hike through the bush, talking and answering my kids questions all the way, casually spotting 3 more koalas and a "murder" bird, before we hoped in his car again to go to local trail in the rainforest, learning about the local indigenous people along the way (He cemented the Kookaburra as my favorite Australian animal from the information he shared). On the hike out our 9 year old was bit by a Bull ant (which packs quite a sting). Peter handled it very well and provided first aid until our son was ready to continue, Peter was so calm I thought it must happen all the time, but he later shared that it was a first. We all wanted to continue to what we the main point of our tour, the evening viewing of the glow worms. "Eagle Eye" took us into a public trail that was not commonly used by bigger groups so we were the only ones walking the path. We went a mile or so into the forest, all the time chatting about the rainforest, Australia, animals, flora and fauna. It was quite a dark adventure but my family had a great time with the flashlights and Peter helped our boys when they needed a hand. We finally came to the glow worms which were a magical bright blue, like glowing starts in the serenity of the rainforest. He answered all our question with amazing enthusiasm and detail with ease. Reluctantly dragged out of the forest and, "Eagle Eye"not only spotted wildlife in the dark including beetles, birds, and frogs but pointed out the beautiful stars and city skyline in the distance on our way back to the car. We did one last stop at an overlook for a great look at the city skyline but also of the stars in the forest sky that showed the Milky Way down to the stardust. I will always remember the my 9 and 11 year old crashed in the back of the van exhausted from an amazing adventure and taking home memories that they will remember for the rest of their lives. If I am ever back in the area, I would not hesitate to book another tour with Peter!

    We had such an amazing day on this private rainforest and wildlife tour. Peter planned our day to our specific liking, and changed as we went along when he noticed what things we enjoyed most. We had a superb mix of beach/looking at surfers, swimming, watched whales, waterfalls, amazing trees, kangaroos and koalas. Our guide was truly knowledgeable about the surrounding nature and explained everything in an educational manner. He also added the little extra - such as invited us to play our own playlist in the car, use his charger, had a variety in choices for food. Best day on my entire trip to Australia by far!

    We had a great time!! Saw what we wanted to see and Peter is just such a wonderful human being. He made things easier for us since we were with a 4-year-old and a 6-year-old. I fully recommend this tour :)

    We did a private tour so that we could combine both the rainforest waterfall and glow-worm tours. Peter was very open to tailoring the tour and helped shape the day to match our ability and interests. We enjoyed a great hike, a nice swim, the food, and appreciated his knowledge of the area and its wildlife. Peter was a great tour guide and very patient with the kids’ questions. We would enthusiastically recommend.
