    Wow. Budj Bim National Park and Tae Rak Aquacultural tour. A Mind blowing education of an ancient culture, so brutally lost, but not forgotten. Now reclaimed and being lovingly restored and shared with those of us who want to know more. In the words if one most of us remember, "Do yourself a favour!" Our tour guide, Luke, was amazing, funny, fun, interesting, engaging and warm. So full of knowledge and so happily willing to share. And much to Richards delight a Hawks fan. Go figure. Go Hawks! Thankyou Luke for an amazing day. We appreciated and enjoyed the lunch so much more after learning about the produce. What an epic journey.

    Excellent tour. I learned a great deal about culture and history of the aboriginal people in the area. The guide, Luke, was very welcoming and knowledgeable. The eel tasting platter was excellent. Definitely recommend doing the full day tour.

    Absolutely first rate tour, small friendly group with informative guide. Some hard stories, but lots of positives too, regeneration of the lake particularly. Welcoming friendly staff, great coffee and delicious share platters for lunch. Amazing to learn about the life cycle of the eels. We need to listen and learn.
