This tour is run by a couple who are owner, operators. We found them to be very professional, and extremely friendly. The actual tour was great value. It included fantastic scenic locations, with very knowledgable commentary. The food provided was excellent . Fresh, homemade, and set out in beautiful settings. Adding to this, I accidently dropped my phone on the bus before being dropped off. I rang them and said I would be happy to come and get it, but they went out of their way to return it to our apartment.

Liz was amazing to deal with. She went above and beyond to give our group of high school students a great tour. The students all really enjoyed the experience, and would happily do it again. Highly recommended.

I booked a tour through behind the barrel for my partners birthday and it was a great experience! We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and Jarryd was knowledgeable of all the beverages and knew how to show us a good time, especially with the 1%ers like letting us use the aux cord for the drive! Haha - definitely recommending to all our friends.

Harry is an excellent tour guide! You will not find a more genuine and kind person to take you to places around Byron you wouldn’t have thought to go! From the waterfall, look outs and tea tree lakes you are looked after and get to experience these magical locations thanks to Harry! He makes you feel welcome and is super relaxed and accommodating. I would highly recommend going on his tour and will definitely be going on another tour with him when I’m back in Byron! Such great value for an experience you won’t forget! Thanks Harry for making it such a wonderful day it really is an amazing tour!
