They took us to stunning places that I wouldn’t have explored on my own and despite being just a weekend away, they took us to a real variety of landscapes. I particularly enjoyed walking through the river to get to the waterfall and seeing the Milky Way and stars at night. They took all the hard work that goes into planning a trip like this, making it easy to relax and enjoy the weekend away. There were extensive inclusions: a 4WD private bus, top-of-the range, high quality, light gear including back packs, tents, sleeping quilts, day packs, and walking poles to mention a few that stood out to me. They also provided all the food, considering different people’s dietary needs, then made delicious meals for us. Shout out to Maddie here for managing to have perfectly ripe avocadoes for both the lunches! Maddie and Tom are impressive tour leaders, having put a lot of thought into the trips. They run the trips competently, safely and attentive to everyone’s needs both on the trip itself and in the lead up to it. If you are wanting to take a break from everyday life, then I would highly recommend taking a trip with the Adventure Gene.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I did the 2 day Alpine Blue Waterholes with Tom and Maddie. Guides were absolutely fantastic, I put 100% faith in our guides and gear. All the gear was brilliant, lightweight, packs down to almost nothing, warm. The hiking was brilliant, Alpine grasslands, waterholes, heritage huts, magnificent gorges, caves, bit of scrambling over rocks and sketchy descent, creek crossings, beautiful waterfall. Very organised, cannot fault. PS food was fantastic! great snacks, gourmet rolls and wraps, chicken noodle magic and freeze dried icecream that actually tastes like icecream.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Absolutely fantastic experience with Maddie and Tom! From start to finish, they made our trip summiting the highest peaks in Australia unforgettable. Their knowledge, energy, and passion for guiding really shine through. Highly recommend the short trips they offer for people like me with less confidence hiking because you will learn so much and get to use some of the best ultralight gear.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did the 7 days Snowies Alpine Traverse with Tom and Maddie and it was amazing. As well as a great holiday I learned a lot about longer distance hiking - navigation, blister care, water management, river crossings (although all in this route were very tame). They were great guides and it’s given me the skills and confidence to do longer hikes. And their pancakes are amazing! Highly recommended.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've just done the 7 day Alpine Traverse with Maddie and Tom, incredible guides and an incredible experience.
