  I came on this tour after losing myself back home in the UK. Running myself into the ground I needed a break, and what a break I got. Travelling all up the east coast with ultimate travel is well and truly worth it, especially with an insane tour guide (ZOE) you couldn’t have done any more for us, you helped bring back my old self. You made us feel comfy, always checking up on us, and making sure we had the best time possible. I can gladly say I’ve made friends for life on this trip. I will certainly be travelling down south in the UK and to the Netherlands to visit everyone. Ultimate travel made this happen and Zoe’s bubbly personality to make the whole group love the tour from Sydney all the way up to cairns. Highlights have got to be snorkelling with sharks in the Great Barrier Reef, scootering in magnetic island, bungee jumping and much much more. Don’t hesitate to book this 6 week trip you’ll have the time of your life. Australia I will be back, maybe even permanently.

  If you can use Google Maps, TripAdvisor, and get yourself home after drinking, then the tour is not worth the money. I would not recommend travelers book this tour, as 6 weeks is too long and all the stops tend to drag on unless an additional activity with an extra cost is booked. However, my biggest issue with this tour is the group dynamic it created. During the tour, there were incidents of homophobic slurs and threats made, sexist and degrading comments toward the women, and general bullying. No serious action was taken by the guide, which helped foster a toxic culture and left us feeling isolated. Moreover, I had issues with Ultimate Travel. When I first arrived in Sydney, they had not booked the room I had paid for. Then they canceled the Sydney Harbour Bridge walk at sunset, so we had to go at a different time. Finally, the Everglades cruise I had paid for was also canceled, and I was told I would have to wait until the tour was over for a refund—until I complained and finally got my money back. Overall, I do not feel that their claim of "stress-free travel" was delivered. If anything, my experience and that of others was quite distressing at times. I would recommend either a 3-week tour if you feel more comfortable with a group or having a company plan your itinerary for you. On the East Coast, we met many solo travellers who chose this option, as it allowed them more freedom while still giving them the opportunity to meet people and travel together, without the toxic group dynamic.

  the tour was great, and that was made possible by Eli. Everything was well arranged and if something was wrong or you had questions, you could always contact her, no matter how big or small the problem was. For the rest, the tour itself was well organized and I thought it was definitely worth it
