      Mike was a great guide and very informative. He is obviously passionate about our landscape and brings a wealth of information garnered from his diverse experiences. Mike accommodated myself and my wife at short notice and was flexible with our booking arrangements. Thanks Mike

      Unlock the secrets in the Earth with this enjoyable, practical and informative tour
      One of the most enjoyable and interesting tours I've done. I know the very basics of Geology and Mike's explanations of the theory, the practical and the consequences was so enjoyable and informative. This so much more interesting than a dry text book (or website :-) ) as Mike explains how *those* rocks on the beach - that you are standing beside - got there and why the are shaped that way. And more. The same with the sand-dunes and some of the waterways. I'm planning on booking in on a longer tour on my next visit...and bringing some friends. I'm confident they'll enjoy it as much as I did.

      Fascinating Tour
      Mike was an outstanding guide for our Geological Tour of south-west Victoria. He is a highly qualified and experienced geologist with an indomitable passion for the science. His explanations were vivid and took us back to the time when the land was formed by volcanos and rivers of molten lava. The four hours we spent on the tour flew by and we are enthused to find out more ourselves. Excellent value for money and a wonderful addition to our holiday.

    Fascinating tour with the knowledgeable and wonderful Mike! We had such a great afternoon with Mike learning about the volcanic geology of the region and seeing more of this beautiful region. it was great to hear about some of the recent research that has been done and discover a new way of looking at the landscape. mike is a great listener, very patient with questions and clearly loves sharing his knowledge and discovering new things to share with his tours. This tour is great!
