A word limit, damn!
Russ thank you so much for the trip of a lifetime mate! It truly was the greatest experience of my life getting out around this beautiful country and doing all the crazy things we did. Everything was organized for us, we didn't miss a single thing that we wanted to do. Russ tracks the weather and the emotion on your faces, he knows exactly what you need before you find the words to voice it. If it's raining and your skydive is cancelled, he already has 5 back up activities planned for you so no worries. Two hours in I trusted Russ explicitly to handle everything. This tour is for anyone looking to get out and do something out of the norm, its not a beach lounge tour, this is a heart pumping and life changing one, DO IT! The hotels were great, always nice people, good beds, and damn decent wifi for you to share all about the days activities. Russ knows someone just about everywhere you go, and always has the local pub in mind so you never have to worry about what you're going to do after dinner. If you are worried about going alone, don't be. I did it and made some awesome friends that I will continue to travel with and share my adventures with. Russ does not run this like every other tour guide. Yes he will guide you around and tell you local stories, mythological stories, point out the native birds and trees, but he also becomes a great mate. He doesn't live to clock out at 5pm, he wants to have a good time with you and share in the adventures and that is what makes this great. I hope everyone who has a dream of pushing the envelope a bit further and learning more about themselves does this adventure. Welcome future JUNKIES to a whole new level!
