Nik & Yas were quick to respond to our itinerary request. They took our rough route and a couple of pre-bookings into account which was ideal. We were travelling at the busiest week of the year so wished we received some advice on that and alternatives to long booked-out sites. The itinerary suggestions as we neared Cairns got a bit repetitive. Overall it was money well spent for our first visit to Oz.
