Beautiful place.

Great tour. We saw so much wildlife. Lots of Kangaroos roaming free. Koalas in trees. Owls & huge lizards. And the ocean views - breathtaking. Had a great guide who reallly tried to make sure everyone got to see as much as possible.

Enjoyable day out with plenty to see despite the awful rain.

Excellent tour guide Rio drove us to all the beautiful spots on Straddie. He was very informative and very cheerful making sure everyone had a good experience. Minibus was comfortable. However the Council need to sort potholes on road to Brown Lake!!

Interesting and fun with a great guide

An absolutely amazing tour! I’m travelling alone but there were some really lovely people on the bus. Rob, our driver and guide, was interesting, informative and funny and his playlist was right up my street. We had many photo opportunities of stunning scenery as we traversed along the boardwalk or stopped at various places to spot wildlife. I highly recommend this tour.

Wonderful day with Rio (not de Janeiro)

The tour was the perfect amount of sitting, walking and information. Loved all the wildlife. Rio was pleasant and was great at reorganizing the day when it turned a little rainy. It was a long day from pickup at 7:45am to drop off at 6pm, but the pacing and activity was perfect. I highly recommend this tour with Hit the Road tours and Rio!
