"A few weeks ago, I booked with you the rest of my trip around Australia, and promised you to let you know how it was. As you can guess, it was amazing - of course!
So I really want to thank you again, because I loved it!
I particularly enjoyed Uluru and Fraser Island, but the rest was also good too"

"I really cannot stress how much I am grateful for all the advice you have given me and for the top quality trip that I have had as a result of booking through you. Thanks!!!"

"After working on a farm in Cairns I went to the Peterpans shop for my trip back to Sydney – I booked the the best time of my life!!!
Accommodation and tours were perfect and great for me to meet friends. My favorite trip was Dingo’s Fraser Island 4x4. I drove the car myself on sand and camped out under the stars!"

"Just wanted to let you know that we came in yesterday to the Peterpans Kings Cross Shop 2 say bye - but u weren't in. We left a little something, so hopefully you'll get it when you get in.
Thanks for everything guys!"

"Kings Canyon was amazing, Uluru was also great, just a bit hot and way too many of them f***ing flies...!!"

"First I had the Kangaroo Island 2 day tour. I thought it was great, got to see so much wildlife! By the end of the second day the only animal we could see that we hadn’t seen was an echidna, and sure enough, the guide (Damien) found us one before we left!"

"Ocean Free - had a great day with them on the Reef. They were a great crew and a good bunch of passengers so would have no hesitation in recommending them again!"

"Thanks for everything you and your staff have done for me the last week... you will see me again to organize the next trip!"

"I had a really nice trip.
I loved the desert and I have to admit you were right because seven days are not too much.
the hostel in alice springs was nice too – free toast!"

"Thanks again for recommending the Base hostel in St Kilda - loved it and ended up staying 2.5 weeks... didn't want to leave!!
Hostel is excellent with friendly staff, great facilities and loads and loads of activities planned which makes it easy to meet people.
Keep on recommending that hostel as from what I've heard its definitely one of the best hostels in Melbourne"

"I arrived in Australia not knowing what Peterpan’s Travel was but found a shop close to my first hostel in Sydney.
I was travelling alone and the team of ‘geezers’ became my friends as I visited them every day for a cup of tea, free wifi and to print my resume.
They even helped me check my resume to be sure it was correct and gave me suggestions of where I could give it out in the local area"

"My friend Ramona and me we're back in Sydney now.
We did the 14-days tour from Adelaide up to Darwin, and it was really great.
We had a wicked time seeing the Red Centre, Coober Pedy and the Kakadu NP. I'm so happy, that you recommended us to do that trip. It was a hard time, it was hard to get the money for it, but it was worth every cent"

"My Outback tour with Groovy Grape was great!! Such great fun and I loved sleeping outside under the stars. Had the best group of people too! And a good and entertaining driver!"

"I had a really good time on the great ocean road trip, I met a really good crowd of people and learnt some new drinking games!
Also had a really good driver/ guide in Tash and also had my first flight up on a helicopter above the 12 Apostles.
Thanks for your follow up"

"The train went great, we met an Irish couple on the wine tour in the Barossa Valley on Saturday and they ended up on the Indian Pacific as well!
Anyways thanks for booking the tickets, we just need to get jobs sorted now and we'll be laughing!"

"This is Heleen. I booked my massive tour through Australia with you a couple of weeks ago, and having so much fun! Just back from my tour to Exmouth, and it was great!
Thank you very much for all your help, I am having the best time!"

"A short message just to say you that everything than we planned together on the 8th of April for a French trip on the East Coast was perfect.
Except our car which broke down between Rainbow Beach and Airlie Beach, everything was great!
My three friend were very happy, and we had a really good time"

I just had the best time on my tour from Adelaide to Alice.
It was absolutely fantastic and wish it had gone on longer -although the way we all smelt by the end of it maybe 10 days was enough!

"My time in Tasmania was fantastic! I fell in love with this big island from the first moment.
Unfortunately I could only stay a week. But the 6-day taste of Tasmania tour was the best tour I've ever been to.
And the "Pickled Frog" is a very nice, comfy and cosy hostel!"

"Thank-you Hannah in the Peterpans Call Centre – my NZ bus pass and tours was one of the best things I have done on my travels!"

"You asked for feedback on our western tour and all I can say is that it was absolutely amazing.
The tour guide Trevor and the food was fantastic and better than we have had on any other tour.

Thank you so much for putting us on that tour and please recommend it to everyone that enquires about a tour from Perth to Exmouth because i'm coming back next year with my dad so that he can do it!"

"I really do appreciate all the advice and guidance you guys have given me in Peterpans Adelaide and the help that you gave me ensuring that I booked exactly the trip I wanted.
Please pass on my thanks to the entire team"
