Steve did a tour for us around the Beerwah and hinterland area yesterday. Thoroughly enjoyed the day. He showed us some great locations close by and explained about the various habits of some of the birdlife we saw. Went back today to one of the locations and found we recognized even more birds and were able to understand more about their habits. We were aware that there are platapi in the area and he showed us a great location and invariably we saw this elusive animal. We are going to book him again to do another area of the Sunshine Coasts. Steve is very knowledgeable and is more than willing to share his knowledge of this lovely area. Have no hesitation in recommending him for an informative, relaxed day spotting and learning about the birdlife of this region.

This was such an incredible tour, I can't recommend it highly enough. Craig is an amazing guide. He is extremely knowledgeable on the local areas plus very entertaining with a great sense of humour. We had a sensational lunch on the beach, saw great sea life including turtles plus kangaroos as we drove off the beach. The beach drive, coloured sands, Rainbow Beach, Double Island Point it's hard to choose which was the best bit. It was a truly incredible day.

We are in Noosa with a large group (15) I organised a kayaking adventure at double point as we have taken a few kayak day trips in the last few years in Noosa and loved them. It started well with Vince a fantastic driver/ guide who drove us to double point island. A nice swim when we got there. Unfortunately the fun ended there. A tour guide usually goes out of their way to make sure you have a great time. Our kayaking guide Sean was not a pleasant guy, very rude demeanour. He was not interested in us actually enjoying our adventure at all. Definitely felt like he’s made the wrong career choice. We couldn’t wait for it to be over and I have done plenty of tours over the years and never have I felt like that. I would have complained to the company but as he is an owner not much point. Since we paid over $2000 as a group it was quite disappointing. I would recommend it as long as you don’t have Sean as your guide as it is a beautiful spot and well worth seeing.

Beautiful and peaceful afternoon cruising over still water with wonderful reflections of the vegetation and light clouds. Skipper gave good amount of information and it was lovely when he turned the motor off a few times for us to glide peacefully over the glassy waters. Generous drinks offered onboard, wine, tea and coffee, then a nice individual cheese and dip platter on return to the base. Would highly recommend this trip.
