The whole tour was excellent!!!! Karin & Chris were a delightful couple and shared their detailed knowledge of the Peninsula with us. There was no rush and the sights were spectacular. We both felt safe and the vehicle was very comfortable. It was like a day out with good friends. One of the best day tours we have ever been on.

This private tour was a fabulous experience for us. Karin is very knowledgeable and helpful. The tour was very well thought out as Karin shared with us stories and histories along the way and that helped to build up our knowledge and more importantly anticipation prior to each site we visited. She gave us ample of time and space to enjoy the space and scenic of each stop which was so relaxing. Karin is also very thoughtful and a great and safe driver. We couldn't recommend this tour more.

Karin, our guide, was exceptional for many reasons! She grew up here and knows all the scenic photo opportunities and back streets with local stories that make the trip interesting. Karin speaks very clearly and loud enough so you don’t miss a word. Her minivan is newer and this is a private tour just for you. Her stops let you decide how long you stay so as not to hurry you. This is a professional tour; don’t miss it!

My husband and I had a lovely day touring the Mornington Peninsula with Karin as our driver. We had spent the previous two days attending the Australian Open so it was lovely to escape the city. Karin only takes one party on her tours so you don't have to share the tour with strangers. Not that we would have minded sharing with strangers, however that does mean you have some flexibility around where you go. Unfortunately it was raining when Karin picked us up at our hotel at 8.30am and it didn't stop until about midday. This meant we couldn't see a lot as we travelled down to the Mornington via the coast nor get out at the car due to it being too wet to admire the view from Arthur's Seat (the highest point on the peninsula). However, Karin gave us the option of retracing our steps on the way home or travelling back up the other side of the peninsula so we opted for the former, meaning we could see the things we missed in the morning. We stopped at Mornington for morning tea, lunch at Sorrento and had a drink mid-afternoon at the Portsea Hotel. Karin dropped us off at each of those locations and left us to it, arranging to meet with her at a pre-arranged time afterwards to continue our journey. She accompanied us while we walked along Millionare's Walk, Point Nepean Quarantine Station, the London Bridge Lookout and to look at some bathing boxes near Rye which was handy in case we had any questions (and she could take photos of us!). Although we initially thought we would do a winery tour of the Mornington Peninsula, it occurred to us that we wouldn't actually see much of the Mornington itself on such a tour, and Karin's tour was a great way to do it. She was very friendly and knew a lot about the area. She dropped us off about 5.30 so it was a fairly long day but a very enjoyable one.

Karin was such a lovely guide (and person)! She is knowledgeable about the spots as she was from the town. She gave us our own space to look around. She was extremely patient and didn't rush us when we took our time to sight see. We were so happy to have her as our guide. Thank you Karin!
