"Thanks so much for a wonderful 6 days travelling the Flinders Ranges and Outback.
Your wealth of knowledge is remarkable. Your simple explanations have improved my geological knowledge. I have loved learning more about the early history of SA and visiting many historic sites. What started as a visit to Lake Eyre became so much more. I'm sure we will be back to see some more of SA..
Many Thanks."

"What a great time you've given us, Swagabout Pete
Lots of info and laughs and plenty to eat
Your knowledge of mining, the outback and history too
Gave us 6 days of a wonderful overview
What with Quandong Pies and a Lake Eyre Flight
And a rather short climd to an aboriginal site
You even obliged Rod with his daily coffee fix
By finding expresso places out in the 'sticks'
Coober Pedy, Talc Alf and the Breakaways too
We both learned more than a thing or two
So Pete thanks for the great trip that we've had
To recommend your tours we''ll really be glad"

" Thanks for sustaining and entertaining us for the last 4 days! Thanks for the SA Tourist Bureau for casting us into your network. Anticipation and fulfillment put our trip into perspective. Lake Eyre was to be the highlight but the enlightenment of geology, history, heartbreak and successes gave a new meaning to the GFC. For us it was nothing compared to the frustrations faced by those early settlers. "

Your a great ambassador for this country you obviously care about so deeply. What's not to love about the countless miles of ever changing, unspoilt landscape, Lake Eyre in flood, the majestic Breakaways, even your unique Cornflake Cookies. Thank you for looking after and feeding us so well and imparting such a great general knowledge of your backyard . A very memorable trip. "

“ We had just three days with you but we have learnt a lot about the country we have travelled which has deepened our appreciation of its ancient beauty. Thank you so much for the lovely picnics, sightseeing - Hawker, Marree, William Creek, Coober Pedy, Woomera and Clare. Te mound springs and the underground dug-outs & mines were terrific but the highlight for us would have to be th dawn departure for Marree & our light plane flight over the beautiful waters of Lake Eyre - north and south and the Cooper Creek and Warburton River. Magnificent ! What a great way to re-connect with outback South Australia.
Thank you so much for a wonderful 3 days. ”
