Just finished the 3 week east coast highlights tour and it was such a fun, interesting and enjoyable tour and my guide (Mia) was so knowledgable about all the areas we visited and was so friendly, always there to help when needed! Was one of the best things I’ve ever done and would 100% recommend an ultimate tour to anyone travelling solo!!

I have had the best week ever with ultimate travel. Josh our tour guide was genuinely incredible. He was so knowledgeable, so friendly, so helpful and such fun. He made everyone feel so welcome from day 1 and I have made some of the best friends on this tour in such a short amount of time. Every activity was so much fun. The organisation from ultimate is top notch especially as I am here on a working visa the whole team have been so helpful with all aspects from sorting out my Australian tax file number and offering help with my CV. Cannot recommend them enough!

I had booked the 6 weeks Ultimate East Coast explorer, and let me tell you it was worth every penny!
After the first Sydney week we met up with people who booked the 5 week and met our amazing tour guide Mia!
We were a relatively small group, with a lot of different personalities but we got so close so quickly and really turned into a small little family because of Mia!
She made sure everyone always felt safe, always listened to everyone when someone was struggling and made everyone laugh even when things did not go as expected.
She made sure everyone had the best time and everyone got to do and enjoy everything they wanted and create memories for life!
She also always told us where to be at what time which really took the weight of your own shoulders and lets you enjoy it to the fullest without needing to stress!
A few of my favorite memories were the k’gari tour, the whitsundays tour (we saw whales!!!) and all the other big group activities :)
We had some small family chill nights where we just played board games, but also had nights where we went out partying until late!
If you are wondering whether this is for you, let me tell you: you will not regret it at all!!!!
Hopefully you will get Mia as your tour guide too because she really was the cherry on top of the entire experience! She is the best, most loving tour guide there is out there ! ❤️❤️

I spent 5 weeks on the east coast explorer with our guide Jon and a bunch of girls. We had a good time and everything ran smoothly. Touractivities were nice. I‘d recommend it to people who like to see a lot of stunning places along the eastcoast but don‘t like to organize themself. My highlight was on Fraser Island/K‘gari because of 3 days digital detox and driving offroad
