Travellers Testimonials and Reviews: First Light Travel

The holiday was great for Nat and Aaron's 20tb Anniversary! There's more to Tassie then just wineries and food....but we did try alot of wineries and the food was amazing. After over 250 oysters, the boys were very happy men, rating oysters everywhere we went - just FYI, most of the oysters are top notch We drove, we saw, we drank, we ate and we did the tourist thing. We couldn't fault the holiday. We did have rainy weather towards the end but that didn't stop us from finding stuff to do. Everything was well planned and it was my first holiday with my disability so my confidence has increased and we'll be sure to use Michelle again!

Hi Michelle. 

Our trip was great. All of our accommodations and excursions were good. The camper van rentals worked out great. Both the outlets (Alice Springs and Perth) were very easy to work with. We were in and out in no time.

This was our second trip with First Light. If we come back to your area we will use First Light for sure. Thanks for all your help.

We felt that our honeymoon was well worth the money we paid for. The services we received were excellent and we cannot fault the itinerary. Even when the One Off Public Holiday was announced, Nikita was able to come up with a Plan B. It was faultless and made our trip a breeze.

Our  highlights included watching it snow while sitting by the fire in our cabin in Cradlw Mountain, seeing all the wildlife in Tassie and our cruise around Wineglass Bay.

We absolutely miss Tassie and will definitely come back. We have no problems recommending First Light Travel or Nikita and will definitely use them again .

Thank you for making our dream trip come true!

Emma did an amazing job in organising our holiday. Emma firstly had to make changes due to Covid a year ago and then rebooked for us and at last minute needed to make changes in a hurry. Emma did all of this in a very professional, friendly and efficient manner.

Nothing was too much trouble. All of the activities we thoroughly enjoyed and the accomodation was excellent. The itinerary ran smoothly and was perfect for us. I would definately use First Light Travel and Emma as our consultant again. I would also recommend Emma to anyone wanting a wonderful holiday experience.

Thank you so much!

Steve and Lisa Want – Australia

An exciting trip that opened our eyes to the beauty of Australia’s north. Perfect for our needs, independent driving and sightseeing tours by helicopter/plane/boat. Well organised. We didn’t want to leave!

So many highlights. The balmy nights in Darwin, perfect for dinner out. Warm winter days to explore the area by scooters! The aviation museum was fabulous. Katherine had so much natural beauty. Cruising through Nitmiluk George learning about the area and it’s history, the place is magical.

We walked to Edith falls later in the day for the most stunning views and a swim. Kununurra with Lake Argyle and the Bungle Bungles was a stunning place to fly over. Our pilot had so much knowledge and personality, a real treat. A sunset cruise and some kayaking on Lake Argyle made magic memories. Broome was sensational, the beauty of the beaches, sunsets, and the flight over the horizontal falls were an absolute highlight too. A taster trip, we will be back to explore more!

Jodie Chevalier – Perth Australia

Just returned from our first trip to South Australia arranged by Michelle. Everything went so well and the experiences Michelle had organised were very enjoyable. We needed to change our original dates and Michelle handled this without any stress to us. We saw many places and the timetable Michelle had planned was not rushed and we had plenty of time to enjoy all locations.

Rodney and Judy Ellis-Edmonds -  Queensland Australia

Our Trip to & self-drive holiday around Tasmania for our 30th wedding anniversary was everything we thought it would be. Jess from First Light Travel helped us with all the bookings (hire vehicle, accommodation & attractions). Unfortunately due to unforeseen adverse weather conditions (snow & blocked roads etc), we sometimes needed to amend our accommodation & tour itineraries & Jess was able to assist with this @ short notice. Well, it was Tasmania in winter!

We would use them again & highly recommend First Light Travel to anyone looking to plan & book any type of travel experience.

We may have missed out on Lake St Claire & Cradle Mountain due to road closures etc but our time spent in Hobart, Strahan, Launceston, Freycinet & Port Arthur plus nearby towns & attractions were well worth it.

Bruny Island Safaris, Gordon River Cruise, West Coast Wilderness Railway, Tamar River Cruise, Bicheno Penguin Tour, Wineglass Bay Cruise & Port Arthur tour all well worth it.

Jacinta & Glenn Mobberley – Australia

Hi Emma,

Thank you for the welcome home and thank you for all the effort you put into organising all the booking, particularly as, due to covid, you had to do it twice with very little extra cost to us. It was a great trip, I enjoyed every minute of it. What an amazing and beautiful country we live in! I will get around to filling in your feedback form, sorry it is taking a while, but it has been a busy time catching up with things back home.

We did make it out to the Painted Desert which was amazing and I'm sure it would be even more amazing at sunset or sunrise. The West McDonald Range tour was excellent and we really enjoyed the Katherine Gorge. I guess the 2 highlights of the trip would have to be (not surprisingly): Uluru, Kata Tjuta national park, including the Tali Wiru dinner, and The Ghan.

Once again many thanks for a great adventure,

Kind regards,

Jenny and Andrew Bogema - NSW Australia
