    Hannah

    Asked on June 25th, 2024

    I would be travelling alone is this your quite popular in October? I don’t necessarily want to be on my own and would love to meet new people. I would also be staying at a hotel close to Melbourne airport do you pick people up from there or just in the city?

    Group size
    Transport
    • Australian Natural Treasures TouringOperatorWritten June 2024

      Our groups have a minimum of 2 people and a maximum of 8 and we find this size perefect to see a place properly and also allows us to use some really unique properties. The date of the 20th has no-one else booked on it at the moment but the week before has two already going, so you could join that tour if it suits you.

    • H

      Hannah

      TravelerWritten June 2024

      Can I ask if any other dates have got people booked in yet? And does the Adelaide to Melbourne follow the same stops or is it different?

    • Australian Natural Treasures TouringOperatorWritten June 2024

      The week before on the 13th we have 2 people already booked on the Melbourne to Adelaide tour so that is available to book. The Adelaide to Melbourne tour is exactly the same however it also gives time to visit a winery on the afternoon of the first day after the cave tour.
