Excellent tour. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. We were made feel welcome by the Adventurous Women leaders. The group was a good size so that we all had the opportunity to thoroughly enjoy the SUP experience. The afternoon tea afterwards was beautifully presented and gave us the opportunity to reflect on our experience. Thanks for a fantastic afternoon.

It was a fantastic experience. Our host was amazing . The instructors were so supportive and so patient. For me was very hard to stay on balance when standing up on the board and I had a few falls but they stayed with me and made me safe.
The scenery was incredible we even had the dolphins coming to say hello.24/02/2018 Molly
Great guide Mark, got the whole group paddle boarding. Informative about surrounds and wildlife.

I'd never heard of AW before this, but liked what i learned about them and their walks and would certainly look at future walks with them.

Another excellent trip organised by AW. Really enjoyed all aspects of the day. Really well organised - Sue and Neri were fantastic guides and hosts. They made it lots of fun and we all learnt lots too. Thanks AW. I'll be back.

Was a great day - nice to meet everyone. Start was a little disorganised with a lot of waiting about, however that gave everyone the chance to get to know each other

Great day and enjoyed the experience. Although it was my error, I did mistake the day and went on the Saturday not the Sunday, so I would suggest ensuring the day as the date when giving details. Lunch was fun and up to AW standards!!

Great day out. Good exercise, great company. Would love to try other things Fairbridge has to offer such as archery and canoeing.

Had a great day, as usual the guide was great, the food was amazing and the atmosphere encouraging and welcoming. The swim was an excellent way to end the day.

It was a great day out. As always I met so me fabulous ladies. Was nice to see other mother and daughters there together. The number of participants was good. We got to have multiple turns on rock clime and abseiling. As usual, Sue O was an awesome host. Kept us amused and took lots of fabulous photos. Thanks Brad. The food wa so so delicious and you catered for the vegetarian well. Thank you. Thank you to all concerned. Also our hosts at Fairbridge farm where also fantastic and very patient. Thank you to them also.

My first excursion with AW and I loved it. It was an added bonus that my daughter could come along to share the day. Great vibe great group of women.

I saw this trip on the AW website before I became a member. I decided to do it as I thought the Snowy Mountains would be a stunning place to go hiking. And I was right!! The scenery was beautiful and varied. It included alpine and bush walking both of which were lovely. I am from Perth so it was good to see the bush in a different part of the country. The guides were good, especially Sue O'Connor who made everything heaps of fun. The other women on the tour were friendly and a good bunch to go hiking with. There were lots of people in my general age group which I liked. The accommodation was good except it clearly was not designed to be used in the warmer months.

I loved this trip, the accommodation was amazing, food so appropriate, activities harder than I thought it would be which made me work harder, not a bad thing. I loved the scenery and history and the achievements. Sue the tour guide just perfect, very friendly and professional, she did an amazing job being sure to include everyone no matter what our activity level was.

Sue and Jazzy made my hike super enjoyable. Their positivity, knowledge, humour, jokes, meals, thoughtfulness and attention to detail made this such a fun time. The walking pace is comfortable with plenty of rests and opportunities for photos and crazy group shots. The Bibb track is full of surprises, with no day the same.

Thank you so much for going forward with the trek even though the numbers were low. We had a fantastic time together and all got to know each other. Was just so beautiful to be out in the bush enjoying being in nature. Enjoyed the diversity of wild flowers. Then at the end of the day a warm shower, gourmet meal and a comfy bed.

Was well-thought out. Very well organised. Perfect walking weather!
17/11/2017 Sadhna Maroo
Had another wonderful day with Adventurous Women. My daughter and I did Rock Climbing, Abseiling and High Ropes. We thoroughly enjoyed it. It was such a fun day, we were challenged and had a few bruises at the end of it. But it was so worth it. Our picnic lunch was delicious and the food absolutely mind-blowing - not what you'd expect on a picnic in the Bush. (Thanks Brad, you out-did yourself again!!) Our Host for the day Sue O - as always - loads of fun and always up for a laugh. Thanks again AW :)

Lovely group of people, thank you. I am terrified of heights so this was a challenge for me. I watched in admiration as many did things I quake at considering. Thank you for all the care and work you put into these days. May I comment that the MALE instructor was excellent - unlike some instructors, he never showed he was bored or tired, he was not dismissive of those with no skills and had a very calm manner about him. I was particularly grateful for him not making fun of me shaking so much at the top of the tower. he also coped with all the wimmin!! Please let him know.
11/11/2017 Sue
Fantastic day. Really enjoyed it and can’t wait to do the next one. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. It was such a supportive environment that made it easy as a first timer to fit in and feel comfortable. Thank you.
11/11/2017 Lisa P
Good trip overall, especially for those who just want to walk the Track, but not alone.
27/10/2017 Robin T
Hi Brad, it was an awesome day and really enjoyed the wall and abseiling which I haven't done before. The high rope challenging however there was only time to do it once as there had to be a spotter below helping.
Maybe canoeing or a short walk instead of the geocaching.11/11/2017 Bev Larsen
Nice day out with a lovely group of women, challenging ourselves with different activities. Great food, Thanks Brad.
11/11/2017 Gwyneth
The trip was perfectly well planned, taking everything foreseeable into account, without giving you the feeling of over-engineering; there was room to discuss variations or preferences. The guides were like friends and members of the group, but at the same time were always fully aware of their responsibility taking this role very seriously. Sue and Janette did everything to make the trip enjoyable for everyone and to make it a great experience for all of us. I highly appreciated their style of leadership. Excellent and varied food during the whole trip. The timing and duration of the daily hiking tours were good and adequate. To sleep in excellent and pretty locations, after a day of hiking.
17/11/2017 Ruth Schmutz
This was my first hike with AW and i THOROUGHLY enjoyed it. The scenery, the company, the guides and the food. FAULTLESS. I had the best time. I felt right at home. I haven't stopped talking about it since ive got back. I can't wait for my next one.
27/10/2017 dianne
This was another excellently organised trip by AW. I always look forward to these short breaks.
02/10/2017 TERESA
Another awesome adventure. Everything is thought of. Sue n Jazzy are amazing hosts. Thoroughly enjoyed myself. The food was beyond fantastic n in abundance. Not the usual BBQ fare you’d expect. We had gourmet delites from Salmon for dinner to pancakes for breakfast. I’ll looking forward to my next adventure. Thanks Guys it was an wonderfull 4-day getaway 😊😊
27/10/2017 Donelle
Had a great trip again with AW. Many thanks to our gorgeous guides, they were patient, funny, kind and worked so hard to make sure we had everything we needed.
27/10/2017 Helen M
AW are brilliant! The trip was really well organised and the food amazing (too amazing really!). The walking was gorgeous - the Track was awesome with lots of wildflowers, beautiful trees and scenery, fun and reliable guides and quite a few fallen trees to climb over added to the fun. Sue and Jaz cooked meals in a fairly difficult setting but did it with ease - we were all very impressed with that. All in all, a fabulous 4 days with like minded lovely ladies. And amazing value for money too. PS: Loved Sid's Campground, even though my tent was in a wind tunnel and blew down, and over, and had to be moved!
27/10/2017 Dawn Woods
A highly enjoyable trip. So well organised. Nothing was forgotten or too hard. I was so impressed with the food and how it was catered for people with diet needs. I really enjoyed all the ladies company and their positive attitude to everything we did. The scenery was amazing and the tours we did just fantastic. Dirty Deeds bike tour with Rob, through the wineries,was so well organised and fun. I really loved how we could buy wine and it was picked up and arranged to deliver to us. The Jet boat Adventure tour was the highlight for sure. Pete gave us maximum time to enjoy the best of the whales. We were respectfully close to them, saw some breaching and tail slapping. He gave us the history of the area and we saw many other wildlife such as dolphins, turtles and fur seals. Just a magical and well organised trip away. Totally recommended.

Great choice of walk legs. They were beautiful locations and offered a broad variety of terrain. Certainly inspired me to further explore some of the area/tracks. Food quality was sensational and plentiful. Loved having the full box of fruit inside the door of the bus. Our guides were super knowledgeable & their hospitality was outstanding. They were passionate in their efforts toward meal preparation, presentation and ensuring a clear understanding of forward plans. The special beach picnic at the conclusion definitely trumps a certificate :)
16/09/2017 Paula A
the leaders did a lovely job, the food was good, as was the choice for lunches and dinner. the accommodation was good, the second one I enjoyed more than the first. personally I didn't realise there would be so many hills, but now I have done the trek I am definitely fitter. just walked around Melbourne with a friend and was pleased how much fitter I was than her !!
16/09/2017 HEATHER MARY KELL
A well-organised tour with great guides and the food was spectacular. I appreciate all the effort by everyone to make this such a successful and enjoyable trip. We had enough time in all spots to see both the wilderness areas and the native animals. There were some demanding walks as well as easier days so the walking was easy to deal with. It is always tricky to manage a group of people who do not know each other and I thank our two guides for the way they managed us all with respect and care. Thanks Liz Spencer
02/10/2017 Liz S
Loved the bike ride to the wineries. Loved the whale watching on the jet boat. Great weekend, lots of different experiences with a fun group of women and excellent weather to top it off. Thanks AW. Thanks Sue O
20/10/2017 Kaye U
Had a great weekend very well organized great food and a lovely tour guide. I will travel with you again. Murdoch train station maybe a better pick up point Cockburn was a bit of a walk with gear.
20/10/2017 Louise Hogan
thoroughly enjoyable weekend. the highlights for me was the opportunity to travel and interact with some fabulous women. i think the group got along well and there were many laughs and stories along the way. there were plenty of photo opportunities, at both upmarket and quaint wineries, along roads well traveled and those not so much, swims and sunsets at the beach and of course out on the ocean watching the whales migrating ( not only whales but a whole myriad of sea creatures including seals, turtles and dolphins) The scenery was picturesque and unique, i forgot how the south west is a pretty place especially this time of year. we were completely catered for, and not left wanting for anything.
20/10/2017 Maria Benic
this was a brilliant trip for me to be honest, I'm struggling to find anything to provide as 'constructive criticism' because really, I feel that everything within your control was managed with grace and friendliness and to the best of everyone's ability
02/10/2017 Nesha Hutchinson
A fantastic trip. The scenery was spectacular, the weather was perfect and it was a pleasure to be walking every day. I loved the simple routine of each day and could have kept going. There was clearly a lot of organisation behind the scenes, but for us, everything ran smoothly and effortlessly. The food was fresh, wholesome and tasty - I especially loved all the morning teas. Sue O did a great job of guiding and being inclusive to the group, Sarah was lovely and the group bonded really well. The accommodation was great and the spa after a long day of walking was a bonus. Thanks for everything AW.
02/09/2017 Sally Birch
Very well organised and Sue was very well informed and patient!
16/09/2017 Amber J
This was my first hike and I would have to say, one of the best things I have ever done. I will definitely be doing more with Adventurous Women! What a diverse group of women on this hike, how lucky was I to experience and share, the sisterhood is alive and well!. Sue and Sarah were exceptional hosts, their knowledge of the area and difficulties early settlers experienced and Aboriginal significance was a history lesson given to us daily. Great company, lots of laughs and an experience like no other ......
02/09/2017 Lorraine Cougle
I had a great time. We rode through beautiful and interesting scenery. I was made to feel very welcomed. Will recommend this to my friends.
10/09/2017 Tricia
I cannot fault one thing on this guided walk. Everything was seamless. Sarah and Sue both very professional and ensured everyone enjoyed themselves. Well organised with a few surprises e.g. having morning tea ready for us at Ellensbrook. As I am proud of our FNQ environment both Sue and Sarah showed a passion for their state WA. I like that.
02/09/2017 vivien dyason
Loved the trip. Met some lovely girls. Accomodation was great, as were activities. Was on my own so could have done without so much free time. An hour here and there would have been better with extra classes or walks to fill the time during the day. Love reading but quite noisy in Occassion in the Lodge lounge whilst food being prepared and felt strange not to help in the kitchen as Sue and Bettina felt like part of the group and not just organisers. Loved the idea of a quiet and a chatty position on the walk. Front or back. Would suggest torch for those in chalets. Very dark in walk back of an evening so had to bring phones with us to light the way home.
08/09/2017 Renee McIver
The whole day was organised really well from the riding school perspective... they made all participants feel comfortable. Seemed like everyone really enjoyed themselves and the lunch provided by Leonie
10/09/2017 Katie P
The whole day was absolutely fantastic. Leonie was professional and inviting and went out of her way to make sure everyone was happy, as she always does. The food she provided was so much more than I expected, but in reality I should have known. Leonie and AW go above and beyond the 'norm'. Delicious, fresh and more than enough food and drinks were provided.
10/09/2017 V Akkermans
Very professional operation. The guides, Sue and Sarah, are amazing superwomen. They were professional, friendly, fun and very competent. Everything ran so smoothly, they made it look easy, even though i'm sure an event such as this involves lots of organization and logistics.
