This tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Australia. Everything went perfeclty: the car was comfortable and spacious, the group size was small enough that we got to know the other guests but also allowed us to keep to ourselves if we felt like it. Views were astounding, undoubtedly some of the most beautiful we’ve ever seen! Our tour guide Shane was great and knowledgeable and knew exactly where to take us. We spotted emus, wombats and kangurus and saw them up close and running free, which was a much better experience than the wildlife sancutaries. We could not recommend Hike and Seek enough!

One of the most memorable days in Melbourne was the hiking tour to Wilson's Promonotory. Shane our guide was knowledgeable, gave us very helpful tips on how to walk on the sand dunes and knew the perfect place to spot the animals in their natural habitat. Our first hike was at The Great Drift. It's absolutely impressive, like being on another planet. At our second hike of the day at Mt. Oberon, Shane suggested that we carry our lunch, and nothing could have been better than sitting way up there on the highest point,on the huge boulders and having a picnic of delicious sandwiches on this beautiful clear day. I must mention that the sandwiches were very tasty. We purchased them on our first stop at Kelly's Bakery at Korumburra. After lunch and lots of photo sessions we were back down at Squeaky beach, which was very squeaky indeed and our tour group had loads of fun trying to make the squeaking sounds on the sand. The beach itself is picturesque and the waters an amazing shades of blue. The tour ended with an extra excitement and enthusiasm of spotting kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, emus and many birds in their natural habitat. Certainly a funfilled and a fulfilling day.

Oh gosh! We headed out on what I think was one of the windiest days, with some rain thrown in. But you know what? That's what made this trip so memorable for me. Shane, our guide, was absolutely fantastic. He took us on a ride with some amazing views and didn't let the weather put a damper on our day. We had a blast up on those sand dunes, even with the wind and rain – it was loads of fun, an experience I won't be forgetting anytime soon. Unfortunately, we couldn't hike up Mount Oberon because of the wind and fog. But Shane quickly came up with an alternative plan, and we ended up strolling through the Wilsons Prom rainforest, which was truly enchanting in that weather. We spotted wild wallabies and kangaroos hopping around in the rain. Although we were a bit disappointed not to see a wombat, out of nowhere, a wombat crossed the road on our way back to Melbourne.

AMAZING tour! Would highly recommend! Shane was a cool guide and the small group (only 6 people) was perfect. The landscape is beautiful, the hikes doable with an average fitness level, and we saw SO MANY cute animals: Wombats, Wallabies and Koalas. I loved it :)
