Johnny and Betty - The tour started at 5 a.m. with two joyful faces of our Guids, Betty and Johnny. Johnny was apparently just a trainee, we were only told that on the second day, until then no one would have expected this, as he was well informed about the geology, biology, history and culture of the region. You could go to him with any question and she was answered. In addition, he never missed an opportunity to inform us about the flora and fauna or even cultural stories. The hikes were sometimes strenuous but never overwhelming. In addition, personal preferences or limitations were taken into account strongly. Although it only affected the two of us, we were always offered a vegan option. I wish everyone who books this tour to be allowed to do it with the two.

3 unforgettable days - Everything was perfect from start to finish: the organization was perfect, our guide Adriano incredibly efficient, kind, considerate, and giving us all the necessary information, extremely varied meals and especially very hearty, not to mention nature itself, which is just amazing. I was a little apprehensive camping, but the tents were clean, comfortable, with fully functional sanitary facilities. In short one of the best moments of my trip.

Wonderful trip to the Big Bumps - What a unique and wonderful trip. Went in the heat of summer and not for the faint hearted but rewarding. We had a great bunch of fellow travellers hosted by a true Aussie, Donk. He made sure we were well looked after, safe, well fed and entertained endlessly. You may think the area is just a bit of red sand with a few bumps but you will be amazed at the variety of landscapes

Calgarians at Uluru - We embarked on a three-day Uluru experience from Alice Springs with two night glamping at two different locations. The excursion included some walks at different locations around Uluru with the sunset outdoor light supper (prosecco included) also included was the sunrise viewing of Uluru from different location. King's Canyon hike was spectacular on third day. Our guide/driver Mikki is an incredibly talented and professional young lady. Thank you very much Mikki. We recommend Autopia Tours' services in a heart beat; once in a lifetime experience.

Proper Aussie Outback Experience - We had only been in Australia for 4 days and this was one of the big trips we had booked to start our Aussie travel experience. CJ was absolutely brilliant, so passionate, knowledgeable and friendly. Myself and partner felt we learnt a lot and felt like we were experiencing proper Aussie. Thank you so much for making the start of our trip so special. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone.

Overpriced. Poor service. - Firstly, I would like to start my review by saying thanks to Mikki who was our guide. She was not only our guide, but also our driver and our cook. She definitely deserves a 5-star feedback. I cannot give such a positive feedback to Autopia (the tour operator) though. Actually, my feedback is very negative. In November I booked a 4-day tour in the Red Centre. After my booking was done, I accordingly booked two nights in a hostel in Yulara. I opted for a hostel because I would have spent a fortune if I had opted for a hotel. In January I got a message from the tour operator. They said the trip I booked was cancelled (for unknown reasons). After being refunded, I booked another tour (a 3-day one). Unfortunately, the schedule for the new tour was different from the previous one. Based on the new schedule, I was supposed to leave one day in advance from Yulara. To cut it short, I had no choice but to cancel one hostel night with no chance to get refunded because of their non refundable policy. I kindly asked Autopia to get that night refunded. It wasn't my fault if they decided to cancel the tour. I was in trouble because of a decision made by them and not by me. To cut it short, my request of getting reimbursed was ignored. Getting refunded would have been a nice thing of them. It was the equivalent of around 25 Euros or so. They wouldn't have gone bankrupt. This is for sure. In the end, getting my money back from Autopia was utopia. To be honest, I also didn't like the fact our guide was in charge to do pretty much everything. This is pretty common in Australia. I have joined other trips where the guide was a sort of factotum. In other countries companies pay both a guide and a driver. I was very surprised when I saw Mikki playing three different roles at the same time (although she was assisted by the team members to cook meals). This is a good way for the company to cut costs. Despite this, the cost of the tour was really hefty. I spent a lot of money to join it. In order to afford this 3-day tour and make it possible, I had to work for two full weeks. What is worse is that the services weren't worth the money I spent. On the first night the accommodation was horrible. There were two options...either sleeping romantically under the stars (but among centipedes) or in a sort of tent made of metal without windows or even a small fan. Breathing wasn't easy as there was no air circulation inside. On a separate note, after most of the fellow travellers went to sleep, I stayed in the kitchen to recharge my mobile. While I was there, I could see not only centipedes, but also mice strolling around the toaster, the pans and cutlery. I was a bit disgusted. Not very hygienc. As for our trip, it is well understood all the places we saw are truly beautiful. However, in honesty our van wasn't really a good one. Pretty small, with no much room for legs. Hence, the reasons why my feedback is negative.
