Amber is an absolute gem of a guide! She took us on an unforgettable adventure through the enchanting rainforest, navigating the picturesque sights even in the rain. With her captivating stories and in-depth knowledge of local history, every moment felt magical. What really stood out was her commitment to the environment—she consistently reminded us to respect the amazing creatures around us and encouraged us to keep the area clean by taking our trash with us. If you're on the lookout for a memorable eco tour, I wholeheartedly recommend Amber! She’s the perfect person to make your experience unforgettable!

Great hot air balloon trip early morning to watch sunrise. Complimentary pickup and drop off service. Nice breakfast with champagne at the casino hotel.

The pick-up was on time and the explanation was very detailed, which allowed us to know more about Australia's ecological species. Before entering the national park, a red flashlight was given, and there were snacks and juice after the end. It was very attentive 👍 There was also a stargazing activity, which allowed us to see things that cannot be seen in the northern hemisphere. The constellation is very interesting.

Will come again. Don't miss the great rainforest visit and the beautiful rock bridge. Be careful of the stringing plant and don't touch them.
