Was a top tier experience! Was enjoyable, fun and my tour guide Margaret was the best! Learned a lot and saw a lot I would recommend any tour by this tour group. Great deals and honestly it worth the money. Best money I’ve spent thus far in Australia. Margaret was super nice, very helpful and I learned a lot from her. I appreciate her and she didn’t feel like a tour guide but more like a friend showing me around their beautiful country.
