Travel Review: Anniversary Trip to Australia, Tasmania, Melbourne, Sydney, Freycinet, Great Ocean Road, Fly Fishing

This travel agent was very easy to work with and did way more than just provide a standard itinerary.  We wanted to fly fish in Tasmania during our trip but the infrastructure for fly fishing tourism is not nearly as developed in Tasmania as it is in New Zealand so arrangements were a little more difficult.  However, the guides that our travel agent arranged for us were outstanding.  We especially enjoyed the lodge in Deloraine.  Aside from a couple glitches during check in for a couple flights, all of the arrangements were seamless.  Every limo driver and guide was on time and outstanding.  Having private tours allowed us to visit with the guides informally so we learned a lot about the customs, culture, plants and wildlife of the areas we visited--including explanations of cricket and Australian Rules Football!   Our agent encouraged us to spend a few days at a lodge Freycinet and I'm so glad she did.  It was a lovely and relaxing way to start our trip around Tasmania.  The only problem was that it was so hard to leave!
