What an incredible experience! The 2 day Wakalina walk was a once in a lifetime experience... This trip has lots of inclusions that go beyond your standard holiday experience. Perfect for someone wanting to see the best of the East Coast but in a unique way. Hotels were amazing, food delicious (and lots of it!) . Also Bruny Island was a fantastic day out, so much to experience and enjoy, you can't go wrong.

This was an amazing trip, I loved every minute! The indigenous local guides on the Wakulina walk gave us so much insight into what makes the places we were travelling to so special, people in the group were crying when we had to leave. There was SO much food included and it was all amazing, they catered for all kinds of dietary requirements as well. The accommodation was some of the best accommodation I've ever stayed in, it was just brilliant.
