MY FIRST LONG-DISTANCE HIKE – VERY IMPRESSED!
Great Ocean Walk – End to End (7 days)
“On my first ever long walk I was guided and supported by Eric and Lee from RAW Travel who made it into such an interesting and achievable experience. We were well looked after both physically and for catering. No request was too trivial or demanding to be considered. I didn’t want the walk to finish and I am looking forward to my next walk with RAW Travel in Japan later this year. Very impressed.” – Gerald Vassallo, Canberra (ACT)
EXHILARATING & UPLIFTING
Cape to Cape Track (8 days)
“Exhilarating and uplifting experience. Enjoyed the stunning landscape and flora, isolation and challenge. We are proud of our tenacity and stamina. Accommodation in Margaret River was excellent. The people we dealt with on the trip (hotel staff, driver, caterers) were helpful, respectful, organised and timely.” – Phil & Di Goodison, Wynnum (QLD)
GREAT EXPERIENCE
Mornington Peninsula Walk
“We had a great experience in a beautiful and historical part of Victoria. I loved walking the sections of remnant bushland and following the coastline over rocky headlands and above secluded beaches.”” – Zeg Fergus, Fairfield (VIC)
PERFECT HOSTS
Grampians Peaks Trail Highlights (5 days)
“Fred and Lee were perfect hosts. Fred shared his vast knowledge of the area and the many plants we encountered. Lee was a colourful character, always cheerful and nothing was ever a bother always willing to help and had snacks and drinks ready at the end of the day. The walks were varied and challenging at times.” – Jennifer Newell, Deniliquin (NSW)
KIND & HELPFUL TRIP LEADERS
Great Ocean Walk Highlights (4 days)
“Thank you for a memorable trip on the Great Ocean Walk. It was a holiday I will not forget. The kind and helpful leaders extended every bit of encouragement I needed. Every aspect of the holiday was professionally conducted: delicious meals, comfy beds, timely transport in our van, interesting guides (I particularly appreciated the input from our Aboriginal expert) and optional withdrawal times when I needed a break. The ‘icing on the cake’ was the delightful company of my fellow travellers.” – Rae Goth, Guildford (NSW)
FANTASTIC GUIDES
Cape to Cape Track (8 days)
“Alan and Malcolm were fantastic guides. Both had terrific knowledge of the walk and Malcolm’s knowledge of the plant world was certainly appreciated. The guys both went above and beyond to make sure our trip was a memorable experience, and both had a great sense of humour. Really enjoyed the visits to the winery, chocolate factory and being able to visit Busselton on the journey home. It also helped the weather we experienced was nothing short of brilliant!” – Amanda Brooks, Brighton (QLD)
HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Great Ocean Walk Highlights (4 days)
“The trip was very well organised and I felt at all times that the people in charge, particularly Eric, were in tune with the needs of the group and committed to our wellbeing. The food was of a high standard and my dietary needs were well met. The inclusion of the local experts added knowledge and interest to the tour. I would particularly like to thank Eric for his care of us. I would totally recommend this walk to anyone.” – Coral Ison, Leumeah (NSW)
OUTSTANDING WALK
Great Ocean Walk Highlights (4 days)
“It was nice to get away and just walk and have the other stuff sorted. The support staff were excellent and the food choices were plentiful. The walk is outstanding – around each cove was different terrain, a different landscape, and the vegetation was just amazing. Thank you.” – Kevin Margach, Canberra (ACT)
LOVED IT!
Cape to Cape Track with Meelup Trail (10 days)
“This was my first long hiking trip. I enjoyed the experience with friends, even the hard bits. Loved the fact that I could finish the whole trip, plus the scenery, the company of my friends and knowing that RAW Travel were there if we needed them.” – Kathleen Crump, Dalby (QLD)
AMAZING TRIP
Cape to Cape Track (8 days)
“The scenery was amazing and the wildflowers were just starting to come out. Margaret River Guest House was amazing – nothing they could have done better. On the days we left our accommodation before breakfast was served, they left food for us, and our lunches were in the fridge. Cy our driver was great; very informative and lots of tips as he is a local.” – Sandy Burns, Malvern (SA)
VERY SPECIAL SERVICE
Mornington Peninsula Highlights
“Amazing, great planning, accommodation, meal arrangements and very special service. Enjoyed the ease of all plans and the way RAW accommodated our every need and adjusted our walks if needed and fitted in some extra activities (Peninsula Hot Springs and Point Leo Estate).” – Roslyn Brebner, Burnside (SA)
