Gabriel was the best Tour-Guide I could wish for. It was an exciting adventure and he told us so many good and interesting story's during the tour. Even the car drives to the different locations were entertaining. Gabriel cared about everyone and always assisted during harder trails.
I have never had a better tour and also the locations and the food were amazing.
Thank you!

Adventurous time
Emily_H, Mar 2023
We had a phenomenal time. Gabriel was an amazing tour guide, and such a genuine man. Swimming under the waterfall was a beauty. We did go to hippy community, which is where the glow worm are located. (Go to the bathroom before this last stop). The staircase in the photo is the entrance to the man made cave. If you are claustrophobic I am not sure if you would enjoy this. We were wary of this last stop, but nothing bad happened and it was a good time. We just did not know what we had gotten into. Great adventure though and would do again!
Response from Host, Mar 2023
Thank you so much Emily for the beautiful words! We are happy to hear you had an awesome experience. Blessings
Great experience!
Amy_H, Feb 2023
Really good experience, got to see some amazing waterfalls & even go swimming (wish I brought my swimmers!)
The glow worm cave was incredible & well worth the long drive.
Chris was a great guide & made the whole night feel like an adventure with mates.
Response from Host, Feb 2023
Thank you Amy! Good vibes only! Thats the spirit! Safe travels
Must do Byron Experience!
Michelle_B, Jan 2023
What a magical experience! We were collected from the Visitor Centre in Byron Bay by a beautiful human (I cannot remember his name, but... he was so lovely and truly down to earth!) He was our guide for the entire tour! I first stop was Killen Falls, which was stunning! We got to get in for swim! The water was perfect! I would highly recommend wearing reef shoes for this as the rocks were pretty pointy!
Then, we went to Minyon Falls! Wow! We were pretty high up! We checked out the look out and then sat down for dinner! Our last stop were the glow worms at Rainbow Temple! You will love it! My recommendations? Are go! You won't be disappointed. Reef shoes (pointy rocks!) and wear your seatbelt! (It's a bumpy windy ride!) PS. If you're prone to motion sickness... sit in the front seat first up! Just do it!
Response from Host, Jan 2023
Great description and appropriate advise! Loved it! Also a reminder that the temple was just an one-off experience for that day, since glow-worm visibility was not great else where. All the best Michelle
Great Exo Experience
