So Glad I Joined This Tour - Our tour guide Michael was very sincere and professional, and thanks to him we were able to enjoy the tour very comfortably. He also provided a lot of useful information for the participants, which was very helpful. I went to the restaurant he recommended and thoroughly enjoyed our dinner there.

Could not be better! - We had a wonderful day out to the Redwoods and Yarra valley and absolutely loved the experience. A very special thanks and shout out to our lovely, enthusiastic tour guide Angel/Sofia - she was knowledgable about the area and above all, brought heaps of good cheer and laughter (not to miss the great music! ) to make it a really enjoyable day. Sofia went out of her way to show us the special spots as she took us through the beautiful countryside. Certainly recommend this tour and huge thanks to you Sofia. Take care and hope to meet again!

Great tour with delightful Mel - I'm a solo traveler and joined a group tour led by Mel. She is absolutely delightful and ensured that everyone in the group was comfortable and got acquainted. She shared great fun facts, gave us lots of laughs, and kept us on schedule while being very relaxed. Mel took great videos while we were on the steam train and was a stellar photographer at other locations, especially the redwoods. The day was fantastic and increased my interest in learning more about Melbourne. My next order of business is to tell my colleagues to secure their spots on this tour and cross their fingers that they get Mel.

Lovely trip package from the Puffing Billy to the Yarra Valley Winery - Loved the trip! I had such a good time and our guide Mike was fantastic. He provided us with the best guide of the places and was so kind and friendly throughout the whole journey. Being a solo traveler, I was able to visit all the places that I wanted to, which most of the tours did not offer. This was the only one with the compact version of the tours merged in one, and I am so glad I joined the tour. Definitely worth the time and the money. Thanks again to our tour guide Mike.
