Amazing day on the gold hunt - We spent a wonderful day gold fossicking and had so much fun! Steve was a great teacher and thanks to him, we indeed found so much gold, which we were allowed to keep. We learned a lot about various techniques like panning, sluicing, and metal detecting. HIGHLY recommend it for anyone looking for a fun and informative adventure!

So much fun, I did it again a month later! - This was such a good experience. We spent the day learning so much, found gold, had a blast, and didn't want the day to end. Steve is a top bloke. Lovely walk through native bush with beautiful views to top things off. I told a friend about this trip, and a few weeks later we booked Steve and did the trip again. My friend was blown away by the day.

The best your money can buy - We had such a great day with Steve. Lots of laughter and humour, plus we got gold! Steve showed us how to metal detect, sluice and gold pan - we learnt so much. Steve was very generous in his giving of knowledge, time and words of encouragement. Having taken my metal detector along with me, I’m now more confident in getting out there to use it. This is one of the best tours money can buy. Would definitely recommend booking.
