Many thanks Alan for guiding us on a marvellous ‘Georges Head’ walk last week (March 15th 2020). We particularly enjoyed your Acknowledgement of Country at the beginning of the walk and your obvious love and passion for the bushland and environment that we experienced.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of the area and it’s wonderful flora and fauna and for making the walk so interesting by pointing out the harbour views, birds, trees and flowers along the way.
We can’t recommend you highly enough and would do your tour all over again….it was tremendous!
Best wishes Robyn and Chris Perth WA
