3,515 reviews. 4.9 star average. None of them collected by us.

Every review on this page was left on Google or Facebook, where we cannot edit them, delete them, or decide which ones you see. We pull them in and show you the lot.

That is the point. Testimonials chosen by a company tell you what the company wants you to read. These are what travellers said in public, on platforms we do not control, after their trip finished.

WHAT TRAVELLERS ACTUALLY TALK ABOUT

Read enough of these and the same things keep coming up. The crew on the ground. Groups that stayed friends after the tour ended. Someone sorting out a problem at short notice — a missed flight, a change of plan, a visa question at the wrong hour.

Very little of it is about the scenery. That part takes care of itself. What people write about is whether the trip was run properly.

WHY THIS MATTERS WHEN YOU BOOK

Book one of our trips through a third-party site and you are their customer, not ours. When something changes — and on a long trip something changes — you are in their support queue, explaining your booking to someone who has never run it.

Book direct and you deal with us. The same team that answers this page answers the phone when your plans move.

  • Operating since 1991 out of Sydney
  • A $300 Deposit holds your place on any Ultimate Guided tour booked more than 6 weeks out
  • Real people, in Australia, on the end of the phone
