3Day-Litchfield and Kakadu in August 2019! Awesome adventure! Nice Guide, Darrel! Beautiful views, lot of different birds, buffalo's, salties and interesting Aboriginal culture! But you need to accept the sometimes really long and thoughtful car rally between the spots. PS: don't forget your snorkeling equipment to explore the Cristal clear Billabongs with its perches, turtles, barras, rainbow fish,...

Thank you for sharing your feedback, it sounds like you really got the full Top End experience and were lucky enough to see some of our spectacular wildlife. Great tip about the snorkel, it's amazing what you can see swimming around in the clear pools. Thank you again Stacey Guest Feedback

Dear Sara, Thank you for sharing your review, it's great to hear that you were so well looked after by Darren. I appreciate your comments regarding our itinerary, we aim to strike a balance between off road exploration and comfort camping but I can certainly appreciate wanting to explore further as there is so much to see in the Top End. Thank you again for sharing Stacey Guest Feedback

A great short (2D/1N) trip to Uluru and the Olgas. We had a fantastic experience, a great guide Jenner and all together a good trip.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. Our overnight tours are great for those with limited time in the Red Centre but I'm pleased to hear that you made the most of your experience and that you were so well looked after by Jenner. Thanks again Stacey Guest Feedback

The truck was a bit beaten and the guide on his few last trips before quitting, you could feel he was out of it. But it didn't prevent the group from having a great time !! Everything else was just GREAT !! Sleeping under the stars in the swag is the ultimate contact to nature you can get :)

Dear Pearl, Thank you for sharing your feedback. I'm so pleased that you enjoyed your tour and especially that you gave the swag a go, for many this can be the most memorable part of the tour. I was sorry to hear that your guide didn't offer the best experience; For some, guiding can be a temporary or seasonal role but the same level of professionalism and enthusiasm is expected regardless of tenure and I'm sorry that this was not the case during your tour. This is certainly not indicative of the overall standard of our team who are known to be knowledgeable, caring and passionate about sharing the Northern Territory with our guests. I'm glad that despite your concerns you still had a great experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. Stacey Guest Feedback

Loved my time with Wayoutback! Overall amazing experience. There is two main points I would say could be approved. 1) have the same guide and group for the whole 10 day tour. Was a bit exhausted from meeting new people all the time and would have loved to stay with the same guide as well. It takes 3 days to get used to each other and swapped right once your comfortable is a shame. 2) I was registered as a vegetarian and my options were good. But I saw how much meat got thrown out. I really believe that Boone needs meat for breakfast lunch AND dinner. C

Full days and probably involved more time on the Isuzu than we expected. Some great sights along the way and well worth visiting. Very hot. Upgrade to lodges rather than tents if you can. Guide was delightful and worked hard. Small whinge - there weren't enough mugs and cutlery, had to keep washing them.

Great tour. Guide Shannon was brilliant and knew his stuff. Food options could be improved, however all in all it was fun and would recommend anyone have a go!

We had a blast on our adventure. Shannon was a great guide. The different sites we visited were breathtaking. Sleeping in the bush was fantastic. Breakfast could have included some proteins.

Dear Julie, Thank you for sharing your fantastic feedback, it's always a pleasure to hear about our passengers experiences on tour and I know Shannon will appreciate you taking the time to recognise his efforts. I note your comment regarding proteins at breakfast, suggestions are always valuable and I have shared this with our operations team for consideration. Thank you again Stacey Passenger Feedback

The knowledge our tour guide Lee had was endless, well informed and organised tour. Having a small group was great we had alot of laughs with some lovely people.

What a great way to explore Kakadu and Litchfield! No need to worry about the long hours of driving yourself and dirt roads as you can just relax in the truck. Comfortable accommodation and lovely food, great way to meet other travellers and nice with a guide that can tell about the national parks and the history.

My favourite part of the tour was our wonderful tour guide, Shannon. You can tell he is passionate about his job and takes his tours seriously.

Absolutely recommend this tour and the company. Safety is always first priority and amenities were excellent. Our host was great and friendly. Places were exactly what you want to see, a lot of waking up early and full day itinerary's so perfect adventure tour. Only down side was the food. Food was provided for, brekkie lunch and dinner and it was a let down. Variety was disappointing and at one lunch session we ran out of food. Overall I would recommend the group.

My friend and I did the Kangaroo Dreaming tour in August. Phil was our guide for the 5 days. Phil had a great attitude, was very organised and a great cook considering the conditions. Don't expect luxury, because the facilities are pretty basic but still it was a great experience even for a non-camper. Only 3 of us did the whole 5 days - the last night was way, Wayoutback in the dry, sandy riverbed. We were the only people for kilometres, I really enjoyed the evening under the stars. If you can afford the time you really should opt for the Kangaroo Dreaming.

A good way for a solo woman to see and begin to understand the Red Centre.

Permanent tents were not great, lack of power unexpected. Tours were great. Food very basic. Arnhemland was tremendous. Balance really good.

The guide could tell us a lot of the three days at the red center Safari. The guide was very good in give us the information and organise the things. Unlikely he did not make a good group of the people at the Safari. Please give better information at the customers about the difficulty of the walks before they are making a booking.

Good tour with a lot of new facts and learned alot. It did not hold up with it being a tour for people between 18-20 since people in the age of both over 50 and under 18 was on the tour wich was a bit disappointing
