Lovely small group tour with stunning views - We had an awesome tour with Navigate Expeditions! It was a small group which we always prefer rather than being packed into a big bus with many others. Our guide was excellent, giving us commentary throughout the tour. The scenery was beautiful at every stop. We saw kangaroo and many pelicans. The highlight was the walk through Beowa National Park. I saw one review that complained about "steep mountainous terrain." Perhaps they were on some other tour because this was not the case at all on the 2 hour tour. The hike was manageable for almost any fitness level, although would not be good for people who need a mobility device. It was easy and we had stunning views. Our guide offered to drop us off right at the ship, or on the main street where there were several nice shops and cafes. We had some spare time before we had to return to the ship so we opted for drop off in town. It was an easy walk downhill back to the ship. It is a small, sleepy little town but this tour was a fantastic introduction to the area.

Above and Beyond!! - Excellent trip with a great overview of Eden, Australia. Our guide, Mel, was awesome!! 5 stars for her. She drove us around this quaint town giving us details and information about locals and tourism. Took us to a forested area for a short walk with an astonishing view of the shoreline and surf!! Also too the water's edge to see a GIANT stingray foraging for fish. GREAT TOUR!!! Thanks Mel!!

Beautiful Eden - The experience started out with such stress - the tour bus we were supposed to go on was not big enough (there was a mix up and the tour bus that came was short a seat). But the tour company worked their magic and assigned Kerrie to the three of us in our own van. Kerrie is a gem and made us feel special. We thoroughly enjoyed the information she gave us and she helped me fall in love with Eden!

Wonderful tour of Eden - Yesterday we explored Eden, Australia with Mel. I am absolutely thrilled that we set up the tour as we were really able to see the highlights of this small but very interesting town. We hopped in a small van and the first location we went was a Lookout point that would allow us to see where the whales visit during the winter months. This used to be a big whaling community and there are many descendants still living in the area.
Although I didn’t realize we would be going on a hike, we ended up doing a bushwalk back to the pinnacles, which was a lot of fun. Not only did we learn about the Banksia trees, but we also saw huge termite mounds for the first time. We thought they would be sand-textured, but they are very hard, like rock, on the outside. These mounds were all throughout the forest. When we reached the pinnacles beach area, we were blown away by how beautiful it was. There are so many beaches here!!
Mel did a great job explaining all of the different flora and fauna and as always, how much of it is trying to kill you, lol
We did stop into the marina where they are having a fishing competition this week and it was hopping! Apparently the prize is $50,000 and someone is going to win a brand new boat. They were cleaning the days catch and throwing some of the remnants to some of the largest stingrays I have ever seen.
Our last stop was the very small downtown. There are really only 3000 full-time residents so we almost doubled the population in a day. There is a beautiful hotel here that was built in 1904 that they have restored, so the last pictures are of the Hotel. The ceiling restoration was incredibly impressive!
This is definitely a spot I could see visiting for a few weeks of respite from a large city.

Lots of sights and information about the area - Kerry (?), our guide, was great - friendly and very knowledgeable and passionate about the Eden area and its environment. The walk to the Pinnacles is a gentle walk, but it is a few hundred metres, so be aware of that, especially if the weather is hot. She had great knowledge of the plants we saw on that walk. There were a couple of stops at beaches (for some to dip their toes into the Pacific) and at the local fishing area where we saw a BIG resident stingray.

Eden is a great place to spend a day - This is a beautiful area to see as a shore excursion. Our 2 hour trip included a stop at a beach and fishing marina where we saw manta rays and birds, a walk in the "bush" to see the big ant hills and native forest, and a drive around the area. The only disappointment was that is was too short! Our guide loved the area and recommended coming back in September if you want to see whales in the area.

Nice tour - This was a nice tour. Eden is small so there is not that much to see, but what there is, is really beautiful. Grant was informative and a good guide as he was a former park ranger. Hint--they will pick you up at the Eden info center--if you are on a cruise, you do NOT need to pay the extra $20 to take a shuttle into town, which is a fairly easy uphill walk anyway.
