South Australia: Tours & Tickets

We were picked up by Paul from our hotel in Port Lincoln. Paul was professional and pleasant and quickly got us on our way. We felt at ease and the conversation flowed naturally. The vehicle was clean and comfortable. Paul was a safe driver who had excellent local knowledge. He was interesting and informative sharing many stories with us. We appreciated his open friendly manner and willingness to answer our questions. We will always remember the pristine beaches and the beautiful national park. Other highlights of the tour were Coffin Bay and the oysters, the National Park, the quirky morning tea , the seafood lunch and much more. Paul helped us become more familiar with the area and what it had to offer. He went out of his way to give us a good time. Nothing was too much trouble and we thank him for a special trip which we can highly recommend to others visiting Port Lincoln. Paul took some fun photographs of us during the day which he gave us. This was an unexpected bonus.

Many thanks for trying to track us down at Adabco - even calling my home in NZ. The complication arose because I booked the tour with you in my name, Nancy Pollock, while the hotel booked us in under Andrew Branson's name, my partner. We were staying at the Adabco, but must have been between floors when Bruce the drive came looking for us. The Adabco reception was most persistent in seeking out the Driver's phone connection. So glad he found us and made up a party of five

Getaways were happy to pick us up in Largs North - well out of the city - which we appreciated. There were four of us on the tour (myself and partner, plus two ladies from Melbourne) and we had a great day getting to know each other plus our tour guide Gavin. We went to two wineries, a gin distillery (Ambleside - had very nice tasting of their three gins, with added boranicals), a family owned strawberry farm (Beerenberg - lots of jams, honeys and jellies etc to taste), a cheese place in Hahndorf (more tastings), plus time spent looking around the charming town of Hahndorf itself. It has heaps of shops with quality products, wine, food and beer, and we had an excellent German lunch in the historic Hahndorf Inn. Gavin was happy to tailor the tour to our preferences and we all had a superb day out.

Very well ran and organised, amazing views, great knowledge of the history and the area. Amazing views, exciting but not scary. Well paced, easy to keep up with the leader

Carmel is so knowledgeable about so much and very good at her job. The market is large and fascinating which combined with some great tastings, made for a very enjoyable experience. If we lived in Melbourne we would shop on the market regularly. It’s great.
