Memorable parts? The tour operator gave great advice and the whole rain forest/barrier reef experience was excellent. Most memorable would be the night time in Rose Gums hearing the rain forest come alive to the sounds of so many animals. Tips? Do the SkyTrain trip over the rain forest from Cairns to Kuranda and back. Consider the outer reef rather than Low Isles if you want full on barrier reef experience - will have more env impact. Local benefits? Yes. The use of ... (more)Philip Lawrence

One word - brilliant! The whole holiday was a great experience but the first 5 days with my guide Coreena were the best. The thought she put in to give me a whole Tassie experience - the wildlife, flora, food, history - was exceptional. (more)Barbara Pashley

Great Ocean Road and Grampians 3 day tour, Australia
From
AU $2,275
excluding flights
Memorable parts? Having a very close encounter with a baby koala, rescued from the main road by our driver/guide Jeremy. Although his mum was up a tree nearby, after sitting at the bottom and thinking about it, he decided to head back towards the road, so we travellers blocked his path. He came right to my feet and sat down!! Very special moment I will never forget. Tips? We could only book a 2 day trip as we were leaving for Tasmania but the company was very accommodating ...

Eyre Peninsula & Flinders Ranges eco tour in South Australia
From
AU $1,295

Memorable parts? Swimming as the only group in Baird bay with sea lions and dolphins, who chose to come to see us - we were not inflicted on them - so responsible encounter. Tips? Be aware that the 6 day Eyre Peninsula trip is sandwich in with two other tours - you go out of Adelaide for 2 days with one group (heading to Perth) and then are transferred to another group on day three (who are heading to Adelaide). Admittedly you go to different places on the way back, but also ... (more)Karen Shaw
