a year agoJust finished the Victorian High Country tour and cannot recommend it enough. Luke and Curley made the tour feel more like a group of mates travelling than a tour. Great bunch of blokes with lots of knowledge and provided an exceptional 6 days even with inclement weather conditions. From mechanical issues to recovery the boys were always there with a plan to keep things moving. Even land cruisers need a little help sometimes (that snatch will go down in the history books right Luke?) All in all a great tour, excellent countryside and a very friendly atmosphere with new friendships made along the way. I look forward to seeing you on the next tour.

a year agoSIMPSON DESERT TOUR: Their published daily itinerary is a useful reference guide. However, we very quickly became aware that the published itinerary is only one of the possible options for that day. On occasion, this was due to changing circumstances or road conditions/closures etc, which of course is perfectly understandable. However, the tradies also made changes to both routes & destinations from time to time, as they saw fit. In our experience, these changes to the itinerary were always motivated by Luke & Curl's desire to deliver the best possible experience for their guests. We felt safe at all times. All experiences were managed with sensitivity to risk and ensuring that a good time was had by all guests. Luke & Curl are both likeable blokes, easy to be around and easy to get along with. They frequently sought the opinions of guests and always endeavoured to deliver on any special requests, whether that be food or itinerary related. Memorable highlights in the catering department included the serving of hot pies while we visited a lookout on day 1. Then later in the tour, the serving of a spectacular camp oven prepared roast pork meal. At one point, we were surprised to be served impressive hors d'oeuvres prior to dinner. A delicious sunset BBQ on the iconic Big Red was another catering highlight. All in all, the OffRoad Tradies delivered a very special and memorable Simpson Desert experience for us, one that we will treasure for years to come.

2 years agoOur family of four (2 kids - 4yo & 6yo) took part in the Vic/SA Border Track Adventure Tour on the June long weekend. The kids loved every moment of the tour. It is great not having to worry about cooking. Basically set up camp and relax. We got to meet other like minded people on the tour that we now class as friends! This track is a fun experience and one that everyone should tick off their 4x4 bucket list. We are not experienced 4X4 drivers and found that Luke & Curl were very encouraging and walked us through anything we were unsure about. We highly recommend booking a tour with The Offroad Tradies!! In fact we are looking to book the Desert to Dunes Tour next.

a year ago100% recommend these Tradies. Having just recently finished the Victorian High Country tour with the Offroad Tradies I cannot sing their praises high enough! Had the most amazing 4wdriving and camping adventure made perfect by their attentiveness to everyone's needs including dietary needs when it came to preparing gourmet meals for us. Many laughs and great story telling was had around the nightly campfires along with some very funny radio banter. Luke and Curl, thanks so much for creating a memorable trip for us and will definitely be seeing you guys again on another tour. Cheers Anna & David R

a year agoWOW. What an experience The Offroad Tradies gave us over 6 days. With us having a basic knowledge of off roading, the crew at The Offroad Tradies helped us grow in confidence as they took us from a gentle hut tour on the first day, small climbs on the 2nd day to some of the best known spectacular 4x4 tracks in Victoria over the next 3 days, if not Australia. Fantastic food prepared fresh every day. Campfires at night and lots of laughs as they made our entire group feel at ease and welcome. Very highly recommend going on any of The Offroad Tradies expeditions. Keep up the great work.
