Fabulous coverage. Fabulous food & hotels. It was summer but you need to tell your tourists that winter clothes are needed. Tasmania has beautiful natural scenery plus very clean air.

The trip packed a great deal in and there were a lot of ins and outs of the coach and sometimes not quite enough time at some intetesting locations. Itinerary was varied and the Tour Director and local experts were knowledgable. Accommodation wss generally good to very good, with one exception. Meals included were generally good to lovely, with a few exceptions which were poor to average. Free time was enjoyed as it gave me time to do what particularly interested me.

In New Zealand breakfasts were same daily. Milliennium hotel ( fireplace in dining area) was their only heating source and we were sooooo cold. How many can sit close to the fireplace? I spoke firmly with the head person in the dining to please turn up the heat! People were eating breakfast in their coats! Next day we had a warm dining area! A customer had to speak up on this!? Really! Also the maid daily ignored poop in the toilet that stuck to the toilet. I had to call to have someone clean up the toilet! I told the young man to be sure and tell y the maid to do her job or I would call again and he could come back and do her job.

I have just finished the Sydney to Brisbane Oz Intro tour with Faye as our group leader. I joined this trip as a relatively nervous solo traveller and felt included from Day 1. I loved it! Faye was really friendly and made sure that we got chance to experience the best of what each location had to offer. She made it a memorable experience for everyone and is an asset to Intro. Thank you to Intro Travel and Faye for an unforgettable trip. My highlights were kayaking with dolphins (optional extra) and jet boating. Would highly recommend this tour and Intro Travel.

Cant recommend Intro enough, I did the 10 day Sydney to Brisbane tour and so glad I did! Most of the group were solo travelers and Faye our group leader was incredible, she was super friendly, organised and answered any questions we had. ’•
