    Everything was simply marvelous. The flights were spectacular, the scenery amazing, the guides fun, attentive, informative and lovely and the program tailored to suit our group excellently. The accommodation was extremely comfortable and the food and drinks excellent. We have specific dietary requirements and these were accommodated without any fuss and without making us feel like we were being difficult. We were provided with excellent options at every meal including snacks while we were out seeing the sights. At the camp, everything was thought through down to the smallest detail - lanterns and headlamps provided in our hut/tent, the bed was lovely and comfortable. The camp has been cleverly designed to be low impact and was nestled into the forest to give you the feeling of truly being in the wilderness. Birds flying around immediately outside your tent! Quite a bit of our time during the day was spent in the boat travelling to beautiful, secluded beaches on Bathurst Harbour, visiting indigenous sites and historical sites, going on short to medium-length hikes. Having two guides at all times, the group could break into those keener on slightly more strenuous hikes and those more content to potter... We were also lucky enough to have great wildlife experiences including seeing dozens of the endangered Orange-Bellied Parrot, as well as potoroos, wedge-tailed eagles and a white-bellied sea eagle nest complete with fledglings. The guides themselves were amazing, very, very knowledgeable and fonts of stories of all kinds, covering the geology, history and ecology of this amazing, wonderful region. The boat trip out to Port Davey proper was a true highlight with dozens of islands, beaches, cliffs, blowholes and arches, all in a simply spectacular coastline. All done in comfort and safety with an engaging commentary and the guides being flexible and responsive to our individual requests. We highly recommend this trip of a lifetime.

    What an amazing experience! The flight around the coast was breathtaking and the boat trip was fascinating. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable (with a host of tall tales!), the food and drink were excellent, and the places we stopped were truly beautiful (Balmoral beach, where we had lunch, will remain in my memory for a very long time). And we had the best weather! I would certainly recommend this tour to anyone lucky enough to come to Tasmania.

    What an amazing experience in this pristine, remote and beautiful part of Tasmania. We had 3 days of brilliant sunshine with Callum and Dave, two wonderful tour leaders with an incredible knowledge of South West Tasmania and Bathurst Harbour. The scenic flight in and out of Melaleuca was brilliant, the wine and food and the glamping were outstanding and a trip I will remember for the rest of my life. THank you Par-Avion. Put it on your bucket list!

    Fantastic experience marred by a generator running all night both nights . Ask before booking if this bothers you.

    This was one of the most exceptional trips we have ever taken. The remoteness, the rugged beauty, the harshness of the environment made this a truly memorable camping experience. The guides (Callum and Hillary) had extensive knowledge of the Port Davey area and the stories they wove of heroes past and present made the area come alive. Par Avion catered for everything and the tents and facilities were first class. The food was first class and seemed endless, along with good quality Tasmanian wine. Thank goodness there were plenty of opportunities to climb mountains! One would hope that this area remains untouched - I will be fighting to keep it that way - but just in case, take this trip to one of the few last untouched areas of Australia.
