Not only did we enjoy the experience we learnt a lot - history, geology, geography, stories of the dreamtime and today. The contrast between Woomera and Ikara, Flinders Ranges was so distinct but critical in our understanding of Australia's past, present and future. Peter has an amazinfg knowledge of the way the land was formed, how our First Nations lived and how it has realeased its resources for our use today. That plus the delicious meals he made provided a great trip. Thanks Peter."

We did such a lot of things that we couldn't expect to, such as bush camps, wonderful hikes, bush lunches with flies, sunset time in the middle of nowhere. We couldn't think it was so huge. We do appreciate the spending time learning about Australian way of life and sharing with improving english a little bit. In some point of view you look as a father teaching a lot of things that we will hopefully remember. We will remember this trip all our lives. Thank you Peter."

We did a 3D/2N tour of Kangaroo Island with Peter. We opted for the camping experience and slept in a swag in a tent for the 2 nights. It was a fun and interesting taste of Australian Outback camping.
Peter is a treasure trove of information on the flora and fauna of the Island and the various places of interest that we went to. He also had a sharp eye and spotted lots of birds, kangaroos and koalas for us to take photographs of.
We also enjoyed the food that Peter prepared for us with lots of unusual food such as vegemite, crumpets, sweet potato, dips and dolmades which we didn't know about and enjoyed. Had a fantastic time and Peter took care of us.
Thank you very much for taking great care of us the past couple of days. specially appreciate your flexibility adapting to our bird watching interests. Also loved the impromptu stop at the pink lake with the samphire tasting.
All te best for your future endeavours.
