What people love about Australia East Coast Tours
Did my Ultimate OZ week back in Jan 2015 and loved it! Was a great way to start my move to Australia and my travels. Tour guides were awesome and so fun, kept the group happy and well looked after. Everyone in the office was great, they seemed to know the answer to every question any one had - so helpful! Sorted out all my stuff for me so was hassle free when I got to Oz. The tour itself was great! My favourite parts of the week were definitely the boat cruise and Basecamp! Josie is so cute! The Ultimate party was also so fun! All in all the whole week was fantastic, the tour was excellent and so much fun, such a great way to start in Australia, and loved having all my banking, sim card etc all set up for me ready, such a great idea. Everyone was awesome and so helpful and I know I can count on them if I ever have any questions or need any help during my whole stay in Australia. Definitely feel part of the Ultimate family now :) Would definitely recommend, 10/10 :)

Ultimate Oz is an awesome way to meet new people and have the best introductory week to kick off your Australian adventures. You will meet the most beautiful, awesome, like-minded people who will become friends for life, who you will want to travel with in the future. One of my favorite parts of the week is the Harbor boat Cruise, its one of the first times you are with getting to know people in your group really well, and you are just chilling on a boat with a BBQ, beers, good company, good music and you get the chance to jump off the boat and swim in the Harbour! Its awesome how can you be unhappy on a boat?! THEN you go to BASECAMP which is great!! You get out of the busy city and into nature, you relax and get to know your group even better and have the most fun EVER! From sand boarding to surfing and body boarding, to beach parties to nature walks, from BBQ to soo much pizza, it has something for everyone and guaranteed you will have the best time! The infamous Kangaroo selfies can be taken, Koalas can be spotted in the trees, there is even a reptile show where turtles and other exciting reptiles can be seen and held! Would recommend this week to anyone especially solo travels as its a great transition to travelling life! Thanks Ultimate Oz I love you!

I did the Ultimate Oz in November 2015, and it was so much fun! I made friends from all over the world, and the whole week was packed with amazing experiences: a walking tour around the city, a harbour cruise on a catamaran, pizza party, sand boarding, bush walk to Tomaree Head, relaxing on the beach, beach party, dolphin cruise, pub crawl in the city, a beach walk from Coogee to Bondi, and most important I got to pet a kangaroo! I think everyone should do it! It is so much fun! The tour guides and the crew at the office are the best!

"I highly recommend this tour! It was so much fun and truly comprehensive. Some days were intense, but I loved getting to see so many fabulous places. If you’re planning to visit Australia, this tour is ideal! I was initially concerned about the group’s age range, but everyone was close to my age (approx 26-32), which made the experience even more enjoyable. Our CEO, Lauren, was outstanding—incredibly kind and helpful, which enhanced the trip. As for accommodations, only two hostels didn’t quite meet my expectations, but we notified the company, so I’m hopeful they’ll address this for future tours.

"The best experience of my life. This was my first tour I had ever done and it certainly will not be my last with the ultimate company. I had Sam P as my tour leader, he made the whole experience so easy and I felt relaxed the whole time. Not only did he excel at the expectations of his job but he also became a friend during this time. He looked after all of us from the moment we met until when we said our goodbyes. He made this tour group into a family and created memories for all of us that I’m sure we will carry with us forever. Of course there were some incidents, that were no fault of Sam’s including delayed grey hounds. One in particular causing people who were participating in the scenic flight Overall, the tour was a success in every
