I had such an amazing time on this trip. The itinerary was really well planned, and there was a good variety of destinations and activities. Everything was well organised, making the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. Our tour leader Cass was absolutely fantastic, she went above and beyond to make sure everyone had the best experience. Cass was always friendly, approachable, knowledgeable and genuinely cared about everyone. Cass involved herself in all activities bringing so much fun, enthusiasm and positive energy to every experience. Cass made everyone feel included and was always happy to help with anything. Cass truly made the trip unforgettable, and I couldn’t have asked for a better tour leader. She’s a real credit to Topdeck, and I would absolutely love to do another tour with her!Show more

This was my husband and I’s first overseas trip, and we went into the experience with very few expectations or an understanding of what to expect. Naturally, we were both quite nervous about what lay ahead. From the very first evening, when Cass introduced herself, she immediately put us at ease. Her bubbly personality, exceptional organisation and genuinely caring nature played an enormous role in making our trip such an unforgettable experience. Throughout the entire journey, Cass made us feel safe, welcomed, included and genuinely cared for. Her ability to organise every aspect of the trip seamlessly allowed us to sit back, relax and truly enjoy every moment without having to worry about the logistics. What made Cass so special was that she was so much more than just a tour guide. She was a supportive shoulder to lean on when needed, a trusted sounding board, a sister figure to some of our younger travellers and a genuine friend to us all. She had an incredible ability to make everyone feel supported and valued, creating an environment where we could all feel comfortable and enjoy the experience together. We are incredibly grateful to have had Cass as our guide. She went above and beyond to make our first overseas adventure memorable, and her warmth, professionalism and dedication made all the difference. Another overseas trip was never really in our plans, but thanks to Cass, we would book another trip with Topdeck tomorrow without hesitation. She has set the bar exceptionally high, and we could not recommend her more highly to anyone considering travelling with her.Show more

My trip leader, Cass, was incredible. She was very inclusive of all participants and ensured that everyone received a top-notch experience. During the trip, she was quick to navigate the inevitable bumps along the way. She took them in her stride and maintained an amazing outlook, helping her passengers grow. She brought 18 strangers together, and we became a family. I'll be forever grateful for the experience and the wealth of knowledge she shared. Her knowledge of the locations made for great storytelling and an overall enriching learning experienceShow more
