Australia Group Tours

We thoroughly enjoyed our Tasmania tour with AAT Kings. Caroline and Sam were a wonderful team, knowledgeable, informative, friendly and helpful in every way. The group of fellow passengers was excellent, a good mix. The tour was comprehensive and diverse. Rugged but beautiful west coast which was wonderful to see, then an extreme contrast on the east coast with magnificent scenery around Freycinet. . We loved Richmond, and Port Arthur….both historic and unique. So much history in Tasmania. One criticism would be the big number of passengers…over 40, in total, which meant a full bus and very limited views when travelling, and some comfort compromised with virtually every seat occupied. Certainly would travel again with AAT Kings and would recommend them to friends.

We had an enjoyable trip, and our driver/guide, Phil, did a fantastic job getting us to all the sites on time. At each location he lead the group on very informative tours and hikes.

is a wonderful tour guide. Knowledgeable , passionate about her homeland history and a very good storyteller. She does an excellent job. Perhaps less time on tour for city sights ( homes etc) and more interesting landscapes could be incorporated into the itinerary.

All the accommodation was comfortable, warm and easily accessible. We really liked the Pavilions at Iron Bark Farm although one of us had difficulty walking but that was their problem. Staff on the whole were very welcoming and helpful Dream Island Resort was spacious and because it faced west, very warm to walk into as the dat although sunny quite cold.

I would consider the activity level as Easy, no long walks or many stairs, Very nice to see. Great hotels, all of them. Superb female Duo (director, and driver). phenomenal and delicious meals.

(tour leader) and (coach driver) were exceptional. They were welcoming, informative, and a great team. Highlight of the trip was Kangaroo Island where we got to see sea lions, kangaroos, emus, and other Australian wildlife up close. Also enjoyed the sheep station visit where we learned about sheep shearing and wool classification and enjoyed a wonderful Australian barbie. The Great Ocean Road was beautiful. Only thing I would change is the 3 wine tastings. These should be optional. I would have rather spent my time seeing more wildlife and places of interest.
