Back in the early 80s, right after waving goodbye to school life, I went on a crazy adventure—hitchhiking solo around Australia for 14 months. It wasn't just about the sights and miles; it was about the people I met. Aussies are a generous bunch, they took me in like a lost cousin. I also hooked up with fellow travelers from every corner of the globe. Those months were like a masterclass in life, giving me a whole new perspective and opening up a world of experiences. Fast forward to today, and I'm not the hitchhiker anymore; I'm the one behind the wheel. No, not a taxi driver, but a private driver guide showing international visitors around the natural wonders of Australia. It's like life's way of saying, "Hey, time to give back!" :) Matt

“Amazing sights”
Matt provided a wonderful tour. He performed above what we expected. He even provided a wheel chair for my brother so he could do more on the tour. The places, animals and experiences were unmatched. I heartily recommend him.
Matt U.
Dear Velma, Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words. It was an absolute pleasure spending the day with you, and I’m so glad we could make the experience comfortable and memorable for all of you. It means a lot to hear that the places we visited, the wildlife we encountered, and the stories shared along the way left a lasting impression. I’m especially pleased we could make it easier for your brother to explore and enjoy more of what the tour had to offer. Making sure everyone feels included and cared for is really important to me, and your feedback genuinely means the world. Wishing you all the very best and I hope our paths cross again one day! Warmest regards, Matt

“NSW Bush Tour ”
Matt kept the tour very engaging and fun whilst still being very informative. I had a wonderful time learning more about some plants and animals found within the wilderness of NSW and I'm even more excited now to experience it in person. Again thank you Matt for a cool experience.

Hey, thanks mate! It was my pleasure talking you both for a hike! See you in Sydney one day! Cheers, Matt

“Excellent Tour! ”
Sorry for my late review. We had a great day taking an online tour with Matt to stroll in the bush in Sydney. I was surprised by the quality of the tour and the view at the cliff was just spectacular! The only thing is that we had 3 young kids in the tour, I wish he could explain things in a more plain language.
Matt U.
Thank you Windy for the wonderful review! I will definitely take your feedback into consideration and try to use easy-to-understand terms when there are young ones on my tour in future! I hope to take you and your family on my physical tour if you visit Australia one day.
