Dear Xavier,

I took the 25-29 July Lake Eyre tour and I wanted to let you know that I enjoyed it very much. The accommodation and the food were very good,

the activities very interesting and of course the country we travelled through was wonderful. You have obviously put a lot of thought into the

organization of the tour. Although my original goal was to see Lake Eyre, I was absolutely entranced by the Flinders Ranges and intend to return

there for a more leisurely experience.

Sandra is a most impressive and capable person. I think my fellow travellers all felt entirely confident with her.

I won’t hesitate to recommend this tour to others.

Brenda & Rudy Scarfi

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour to Lake Eyre last week. Your driver/tour guide, Nick, provided exceptional service and we cannot praise him highly enough. His knowledge and experience added to the enjoyment of the tour and he is a credit to your organisation.

Just a quick note to say thank you for the fabulous time my wife and I have just had in South Australia/Lake Eyre with Gekko Tours.

I would particularly like to commend your representative, Mr Richard Wadham who led our tour. He looked after us with professionalism and care that we appreciated very much. At no time did we feel “unsafe” under his care and driving, and we feel that our enjoyment of the tour was enhanced greatly by Mr Wadham. That said. H.O is not to be left without our congratulations, the Sparking French Wine that we got to enjoy yesterday at Port Augusta on our cruise was just the perfect way to end our tour.

Well done Gekko Tours.

Hi Xavier,

 

Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our wonderful trip with Dick last week. My husband Dean, my sister Joy and her friend Rita had the most fantastic trip imaginable. The weather was perfect, and every turn was a panoramic view. The only thing that was annoying was a couple of whinging poms, but you get that!! Rita is a pom who has only been out here for 3 years, and they made her embarrassed to be a pom. They complained that we were late getting in for our meals at night, but it was because we were all having such a great time that we didn’t care what time we got in. Dick was very friendly and accommodating and pretty good with the jokes too! We all thought that your company puts on a pretty tremendous tour and we will certainly be recommending this trip to all our friends.

Extremely good value for money.

Thank you for all your help in the organizing out trip.

 

The transport was most comfortable, and it was great to move around different seats to chat to all the passengers.

 

A couple of suggestions for improvements:  Maybe some overhead nets to put warm jackets etc in so they’re not under your feet or on your lap.

A really good voice over for the area your travelling through, with all the points of interest, so as not to distract the driver.

 

Dick did make plenty of stops for photographs of scenery, wildflowers and wildlife.

A 5 day spectacular outback tour and viewing Lake Eyre and our 85 year old mother also had the thrill of meeting her idol Dick Smith at William Creek so it was a double wammy after the awesome flight, especially for her.
