Summary:
Eliot was an excellent guide. Had a wonderful time enjoying the scenery. Lovely tea and snack at lookout point followed by a tasty lunch on the beach and boat ride along the shore to our hotel. Worth every penny.

Summary:
Such a wonderful day. Sarah paced the walk exactly right for a slightly unfit walker being myself and provided just the right amount of stops so we could all catch our breath. Very informative about the history of the park and surrounding areas and lunch was delicious. Freycinet NP is stunning, much more so than I’d envisaged. A walk and a place not to be missed. Highly recommend.
