Savannah Walkabout Australian Animals Eco Tour from Melbourne
Melbourne, Australia
My Rating

We had heard about this from another traveler in The Outback. Saw his photos and were sold. Saw 5 koalas, a large number of kangaroos, exotic birds, a black walloby...and a eastern brown snake (one of the most venomous snakes in the world). Can't imagine going to Australia and not doing this!!!

Best of Ayers Rock: Sunset Uluru and Sunrise Kata Tjuta Small Group Tours
Ayers Rock, Australia
My Rating

A great way to see Ayers Rock and Kata Tjuta. Nice mini bus...small group...no waiting for a large group to get on and off. Our guide was excellent and shared with us stories of the indigenous people and information about their culture. Very respectful of the land. One note...take bug spray!!!!

Very happy we chose this particular dive cruise. Very thorough, checked my medical information, and flight times the next to make sure it was O.K. Saw amazing ocean life and some of the prettiest coral I've ever seen. The lunch buffet was was really excellent too. What a nice surprise. Do it!

Small-Group Franz Josef Glacier Walk

Great guide. Showed us much more than we expected on this valley glacier walk. Very small group too...which we liked. Able to cover a lot of turf quickly and see things a bigger group probably couldn't. Great experience. Did I mention how much we love New Zealand.

I actually wrote this review under the glacier walk. Oops. Both are great. You see totally different things. Loved the small group size able to move quickly and see lots more than expected. Regarding the Glacier walk. Fantastic too...loved helicopter ride up. Do both. Very different.

Milford Sound Mariner Overnight Cruise
Milford Sound, New Zealand
My Rating

Can't imagine a trip to New Zealand without this. Such fantastic scenery. Even the drive there from Queenstown was breathtaking. The sound, the cruise ship, the crew, the food...were all great. The ship and the terminal area where we boarded were spotlessly clean. Great job. Everyone. GO!
