Dear traveller.
Thank you for taking the time to have a look at what my tours offer. I'd be delighted to answer any questions you may have regarding any tour listed. I am also ready to put together a package outside of my listed tours that can be tailored just for you or your group, so please don't be afraid to ask anything at all. It is essential to get your itinerary right before we meet for our tour, so I can produce the trip of a lifetime for you and your travel partners.
A little about myself, In the past I have travelled extensively across Australia as a child with my parents, then later on by myself, then with my wife and now with 3 children. Presently I am in early 50s, and can safely say that such experience means I am more than capable of tailoring small group tour packages that are covid safe, couple and family friendly.
I have an expert local knowledge of Tropical North Queensland and the Cairns area. My enthusiasm and passion for Australia and my guests enjoyment and comfort are evident when it comes to showing off my backyard paradise, and using professional people skills, so you can always count on being treated very well during your tour.
I will take you to see extinct volcanic crater lakes, giant species of trees, rare and endangered wildlife, such as Duck Billed Platypus, Lumholtz Tree Kangaroo, and the Southern Cassowary, just to name a few. You will also visit ancient lava flows, waterfalls, and experience unique Australian bird life, insects and reptiles, along with much more. My historical knowledge of Australian indigenous culture, pioneering and Australian wartime history, is available for you to ask any questions. However I never bore my guests with overloading facts or scripted opinions. Being a local, I know the stories behind the Australian and Queensland culture, which I weave into the day at a tasteful pace. I never rush my tours, but am keenly aware of time constraints especially if you have dinner plans or need to get back to your cruise ship.
I can tailor a package according to your time, taste and budget. Maybe a scenic plane or helicopter flight, hot air balloon ride, bungy jump, jet-boat, or skydive. For the less adventurous like myself, I could put together a scenic drive, walk, or train ride through the world heritage listed tropical rain-forests right through to the Aussie outback. Or maybe tapas by the coral sea, or in the mountains is more to your taste. On the other hand, if relaxing by the pool under the coconut palms at Palm Cove is more your style, I can organise this too. It really all depends upon you.
This has given me a trustworthy name in the Australian and Queensland Tourism industry for both budget and 5 star customised service. Even so, I am a firm believer in the saying "You get what you pay for" and refuse to subject my travellers to second rate accommodation and food.
So lets start the conversation. I look forward to working closely with you before you plan your travel to Queensland Australia, and having you as my guest on board a tour you WILL remember for all the right reasons.
Kind regards.
Darrin.
