Western Australian Eye Opener   1 , QLD, Australia, May 2023
We’ve planned our domestic and overseas travels with Hannah from Global Journeys for many years. We have always been extremely happy with the professional and friendly assistance we have received. Our latest trip, overland from Perth to Broome was certainly eye opening. The vast country and changes in landscape from pristine coastlines to rugged gorges read more and desert like conditions reinforced the wonder of our country.
Western Australia 2 , NSW, Australia, Sep 2022
Trip was very good. Karijini was below standard (very arrogant staff and canteen like food). Tour director Shay and husband who drove the bus were outstanding and went the extra mile to assist everyone. Visited many places that we had never heard of. The weather was lovely Exmouth and Broome excellent accommodation. Smaller towns accommodation was read more not as good but that had to be expected as there isn’t much to choose from.
