My wife and I had a great day out with Chelsea and Joe - we did the coastal adventure tour and had an awesome time - very professionally run with lots of activities and local info thrown - would definitely recommend adding this to your holiday plans! Next time we are in this part of NSW we will be doing one of their other tours given our experience with the Coastal Adventure.
