“Had a great tour on the Rock to Water tour with Sam. Sam was very knowledgeable and provided lots of information on the flora and fauna and history during the tour. There were lots of jokes and stories on the way and the group got along really well together. The food cooked by Sam was great as well! Would highly recommend the tour! Thanks Sam!”

Travel tips for Australia Hiking Tours
Pack light. Grams become kilograms when you’re lugging an overstuffed backpack on the trail. Packing light by forgoing a few luxuries will make your hike infinitely more enjoyable.
Evaluate your abilities and choose a suitable trail for your skill. Some of our favorite Australia hiking tours require a decent degree of fitness to complete.
Pick a tour in the middle of the peak season for the best chance of pleasant weather—but book ahead. Australia gets sweltering hot in summer and chilly in winter.
Choose professional hiking tours with experienced guides to tackle remote, multi-day trails. Aussie hikers get lost every year, and many are never found.
