Australia East Coast Tour Companies

For the price and the time we had, this tour was hands down the best choice! The group was fun and very welcoming, but I want to shout-out Lauren, our guide. She wasn’t just incredibly knowledgeable and organized; she felt more like a close friend who made every moment special. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better tour!

The whole tour was amazing. Lauren, our CEO was absolutely fantastic. She has great personality and is very professional. Everyone in the group had an amazing time, thanks to her.

Oz Jobs is a MUST if you are thinking about moving to Australia to work/live. I recently did the 10 Day east coast & Oz jobs with Intro Travel, it was absolutely amazing. You have a pre-made likeminded group of friends to ease the transition in moving to Australia and finding work. Our team leader, Val, was absolutely amazing and I couldn’t fault her at all. She wasn’t just an instructor but also a friend, giving us all the information and facts, as well as recommendations for the best shops, bars and deals! - What else could you ask for!!? She was a supportive shoulder to lean on especially in sorting all the necessary bits for onward travel and work in Aus such as bank accounts, medicare, tax numbers and personal tricks and tips, I really don’t know what I would have done without her help! It showed as well when I left my group to travel solo and met fellow travellers who hadn’t used a group initially (like intro!) and didn’t have half the stuff they needed, which was made super easy for me thanks to Val! If you’re thinking about whether or not to do Oz Jobs, do it! Best decision I’ve made and gives you reassurance in the jump to move and work in Australia Thanks Val!!! ☺️🇦🇺 ☀️ 🌊

Absolutely loved every minute of it! Non stop fun, an amazing tour guide and learnt so much as well!

Have had better experience trekking other places. Guide was ok and not excellent

Eoin is a terrific guide, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. Goes beyond just informing us. Great accommodations, especially loved the Beachfront Motel in Byron Bay. Our indigenous guide was sincere in his love for the land and heritage. It was a wonderful trip.

Had a great experience on tour with AJ on the Sydney week. Accommodation at the wakeup hostel was better than I expected as I was in a hostel for the first time. My flight was late and ultimate helped on the weekend change my shuttle time. I had a really great time

I had the best time ever with my group and our tour guide ?! Everything was so much fun and Eli was the best tour guide ever! It was a journey I would never forget. She really made the tour so special for us. It wouldn’t be the same without her.

Well organized with great events along with plenty of personal time to further explore.

It was wonderful! Our tour guide Adam was fantastic. Highly recommend.

Kayla was very informative and any questions we had she answered. Easy going and up beat exactly what you want from a guide. 5 star service would highly recommend. Josh

This past week with Mojosurf on the 7 Day Living the Dream Surf Adventure has been absolutely incredible. To start, the 9 hour train from Sydney to Spot X was a bit long (especially without charging ports on it or anything, be prepared and bring snacks!), but after arriving at camp I knew immediately that it was worth the wait. The accommodation is basic but beachside and gorgeous, and all close enough to feel like a big family. I was definitely impressed with the food, as we weren't limited to small portions at all and it was delish (everybody needed some good hearty grub after being out surfing all day so it was very appreciated). Overall, there was such a friendly and happy vibe around the place. It was easy to get settled in and meet people as everybody, short-termers and long-termers, mingled and were all just happy to be there together. I definitely have to mention how great my guide Bruno was - the guy is hilarious and was very welcoming, great to get us settled, and willing to help with anything we needed for the duration of our time there (while also being a great guy all around!). Continuing on to the Arts Factory in Byron, the place lives up to its expectation, definitely on the hippy side of things, but still good fun. It was definitely nice to go out for dinner together in the evenings, and good to have food included in the morning and for lunch. In terms of the actual surfing, I can definitely say that the lessons were helpful and good fun. The setup of lessons at Spot X was so smooth, surfing twice a day was easy as you were right next to the boards and beach. The lessons were genuinely quite helpful and informative, and not just a supervised board rental, which was appreciated. There was a good ratio of instructors to participants so you did feel like you were getting constructive help as you weren't just a number in a crowd. This was a bit different when we moved up to Byron Bay, as the distance to the Mojo shop and beach meant you were gone from 12:30-5pm or so each day, and the groups were bigger, but still many instructors considering the group size so all was still well. One small suggestion would be to space out different levels more during lessons - not something we had an issue with at Spot X, but more of an issue at Byron, when those on their 5+ lesson were surfing with the beginners, who often were not used to giving space between boards and surfing etiquette, making it a bit frustrating for those of us who knew better and didn't want to run into anybody. For anybody considering this trip, definitely take the leap, as it's been so worth it to get involved in the surfing world and will make you much more confident to get out on the waves, while also having such a fun week and getting to meet some great people. One important thing to note - you will be exhausted, you'll probably have many bruises and injuries all over, and your muscles will constantly sore, BUT, it will be worth it, without a doubt!

I learnt to surf! And it was just such a cool chilled atmosphere.

Great way to see Sydney and tick off some Australian bucket list items!

I joined this tour in Brisbane and thoroughly enjoyed it. My fellow travellers were a fabulous mix of nationalities and we gelled together well. The trip included great beaches, amazing snorkeling, and natural wonders together with a friendly , fun guide Justin who made sure we were informed and supported. Definitely book with Viatravel for a great tour.

I actually only did the Brisbane to cairns portion of this tour, but had others in our group who completed the entire thing. They pack so much fun times into for my group only a week, but I never felt rushed at any of the locations. They always gave us ample time to see everything and enjoy the sites. From Fraser Island, to the Whitsundays, the Atherton Tablelands, and a day on the Great Barrier Reef. As a small group tour your able to get close knit with everyone and meet many people from all around the world. Our tour guide Justin was amazing, so informative, full of energy, and one of the best tour guides making sure everyone had the best time. I’m fact one day we were supposed to be having a long driving day, and our bus broke, we waited at the hotel for some time, but Justin problem solved until he was able to find us another form of transportation. The included meals were great, and the locations Justin picked to give us as an option for dinners on our first night somewhere was always great food. I would highly recommend Via Travel to anyone, especially if you get Justin as a guide.

The tour trails are not challenging and there seemed to be as lot of repeat scenery as that is Australia when you go out into the countryside. The guide was excellent as reading the day and making adjustments to suit the heat that came around 11.30am to 12pm. This meant we did a lot of driving to and from the trail to avoid the heat of the day. The guide was also good at adapting the tour to suit the level of the people on it. I would recommend this company as they do have great tours available.
