Testimonials

It was indeed a lifetime experience and hospitality, and professional approach of Trek Larapints added more charm to our experience. Our guides had wealth of knowledge and experience to share on the way, Ryle, Zoe and all others were fantastic. If I can I will do the trek again and of course with Trek Larapinta !!!!

- Kamal – 3 Day Trek – August 2024

I have just finished the three day Larapinta walk and I highly recommend it. Trek Tours Australia and Trek Larapinta delivered a fantastic experience. Great guides who were great company, very knowledgable, well equipped and the food on the trail and in camp was amazing! I am now planning my next adventure with this team!

- Kam on the 3 Day Larapinta Trail Trek July 2022

Our 3 day Larapinta trek was fantastic. As reasonably fit 70 somethings we found the walking challenging but so worth the effort to be able to experience some of these ancient landscapes and to enjoy the camaraderie of the track. Our guide Matt was exceptional. Knowledgeable, caring and a great cook! Our camp site and facilities were great too.

- Julie on the 3 Day Larapinta Trail Trek July 2022

What a great way to get a taste of the Larapinta Trail! If you are time constrained & would love the experience of the best sections of the trail this is an excellent choice! Really professional ,friendly & importantly safety conscious guides Ash & Eve! Campsite beautiful! Food incredible! Train beforehand for a really amazing experience!

- Tripadvisor – 3 Day Trek – May 2022

Just do it! I did the three day trip which was absolutely wonderful and left me wanting me more - I will be back!! It is a most extraordinary place. I have done a few organised walking trips and this was by far the best. Our guides, Michael and Felix were knowledgeable, kind, and generous in every way. The food and facilities were excellent and I really lucked out with a great group. Tips: be very fit (the 8 km walk up Mt Sonder was unbelievably challenging), bring a good quality rain/wind jacket, and thermals (June was very cold). Truly, you will love this trip!

- Tripadvisor - 2021

This tour was excellent. The trek itself was challenging but fabulous. All aspects of Trek Larapinta's organisation and management of the tour was excellent and far exceeded expectations. The guides were wonderful - professional, knowledgable, organised and very friendly and accessible. Not to mention very fit. 🙂

- Jenny on the 3 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (August 2019)

Just a brief message to let you know what a totally amazing 3 day trek we experienced 10 days ago! My friend and I loved every minute of it – the landscape speaks for itself, but your guides and the services provided were perfect, accolades to Rob, Declan and the gorgeous Ella for allowing the group to gel and share the experience at their own pace, they were informative in a very relaxed way, highlight the sunrise on Mt Sonder, unforgettable

- Colleen Thomas on the 3 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (May 2017)

I would like to exprees my appreciation for the great 3 day walk organised and guided by Ella, Rob and Declan. They were very professional and patient with our slow walking pace. The food was fantastic and they created a great atmospphere in the group. Thank you

- Chris Casey on the 3 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (May 2017)

Everything had been considered for our needs and we could not recommend Holger and Trek Larapinta highly enough . We think we are ready for a longer adventure now thanks to Holger !

- TripAdvisor - on the 3 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (September 2016)

This is an amazing trek hosted by an awesome tour company. They are organized, professional and fun. The meals they create at camp are sensational. The guides are very knowledgeable about the local plants and animals. I travelled as a solo traveller on the tour and most of the other folks were solo too, we bonded and laughed our way through the challenges.

- Liz – 6 day Trek – April 2024

What a great way to experience 6 days on the Larapinta trail! From Jess pre tour in the office to our two wonderful guides, Zoe & Em who made every day & every walk a very special one. The base camp was a beautiful bush setting near a dry river bed with big comfy tents for everyone, & inside a camp stretcher with swag, very warm & cosy sleeping bag & liner plus great food to eat for brekky & dinner around the camp fire. Snacks on the trail & fresh salad lunch in a wrap every day on the trail was amazing. The group size of just 10 was ideal. The scenery & views on the trail were absolutely stunning, the gorges, the ranges & climbing Mt Sonder in the darkness with our torches to see the dawn sunrise, was a real highlight of the week, fabulous. Thanks so much Trek Larapinta, highly recommend.

- Sue on TripAdvisor June 2024

My son and I recently completed the 6 Day Larapinta Trail Trek. What an amazing experience. Each day's walk was well paced and gradually built up to the pinnacle, Mt Sonder at dawn. The scenery is breathtaking. The camp set up was comfortable and the variety of food that came from the kitchen was delicious. The Trek team are professional and helpful .. We enjoyed the experience so much that we were discussing our next Trek tour before had arrived home. One reviewer said, "just do it" and I couldn't agree more. Join the Larapinta family for an unforgettable experience.

- Brad – 6 day Trek – June 2024

We did the 6-day Trek Larapinta trek in a group of 8; ages ranging from forties to seventies. The whole tour was extremely well organised and executed. The guides, Johnie & Riley were great guides and very informative. They were both also both very good cooks. The food was exceptional. The scenery and trekking were great and everything went smoothly. I would highly recommend this trip.

- John on TripAdvisor 2022

Awesome 6 days with Trek Larapinta. Charley and Ash were our brilliant guides and everything about this trek exceeded our expectations. Beautiful scenery, challenging walks, best food, sleeping in swags / tents under the stars, attentive guides who liked after our every need and were very customer focused & flexible. Small groups of up to 8 is perfect! Highly recommend

- Mike on TripAdvisor 2022

We did the 6 day Larapinta trek and were blown away by how awesome it all was. Our guides Jane & Jedda were super knowledgeable, attentive, supportive and down to Earth. We were totally amazed by the delicious, nutritious meals that they cooked for us every night, and the comfort of the semi-permanent camp. The trail itself was stunning, with our guides making sure we got to the most beautiful sections at just the right time. Definitely recommend!!

- Laura on TripAdvisor 2021

Everything was amazing! The young guides were capable, encouraging and fun!  Organisation was straightforward and we loved the walks, campsites and gourmet food.  Thank you!

- Jenny on the 6 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (July 2019)

Our two guides were superb. They were totally committed to ensuring that everyone had a great experience. They are the face of your company and they did you proud - they worked like they owned the company and gave the job everything. We felt they were genuinely interested in us, they were conscientious, caring and very competent. As well as genuinely nice, friendly and good-humoured. Loved sleeping in the swags under the stars. A highlight. We were impressed with the variety and standard of the food provided in the middle of nowhere!

- Norma & David on the 6 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (July 2019)

The guides Eve & Morgan were awesome and worked very hard so that everything was organised and flowed smoothly. The briefings were succinct and informative. The food was healthy and delicious. The camp was well set up and the walks were memorable. Both guides got on well and laughed a lot which was relaxing and the dingo wake up calls still make me chuckle.

- Kate on the 6 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (July 2019)

The guides were fantastic. Friendly, hard working and always ready to help, very generous and willing with their time. Emails and queries were answered promptly. Regular communication came as required to ensure we were informed and ready. When walking, the guides were informative and clear on trip expectations, and our needs for the day etc. All the meals and food was magnificent. Great variety, healthy and nutritious. I greatly appreciated the guides carrying and providing such great lunches for us on the track and delicious meals at camp. My gluten free needs were very adequately met. A fantastic camp, I was very impressed with how thoughtfully and carefully it was sited on the river. I was also impressed with the eco friendly and environmental safety practices and set ups. Whilst providing comfort and amenity it remains a beautiful natural living.

- Gail on the 6 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (May 2019)

Loved it.  Really enjoyed the challenge and the very different landscape.  The stretcher beds/swags/tents were super comfortable the food was yummy and Brownie was very knowledgeable and encouraging and I really valued her maturity.

- Rebecca on the 6 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (May 2019)

Loved all of it! Mt Sonder sunrise is memorable but so was every day. Katies knowledge and Adams enthusiasm were a big part of making the trip special.

- Sally on the 6 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (April 2019)

This was my first experience hiking in Australia using a guided company, and I can easily say I am a convert! It was so nice not having to make day-to-day decisions, as our two guides, Zoe and Michael, had everything covered. The facilities at our two base camps were great - large tents with swags and cots, the ability to have a bush shower at the end of a day on the trails, and comfy chairs to relax around a fire at night. The food was unbeatable with a range of snacks on offer, fresh wraps on the trail each day, and a 3-course meal at night. Not only were Zoe and Michael fantastic guides, but they were also great company. No question was left unanswered, from the history and geography of the area to the flora and fauna we encountered, they knew it all! I'm looking forward to hopefully joining one of their tours elsewhere in Australia.

- Rachel – 9 Day Trek – July 2024

Put this on your bucket list and travel with this team. The itinerary, the guides, the accommodation (eco tents), the food and the group we were lucky enough to travel with, were all top-notch ingredients for a memorable, life changing experience.

- Gary – 9 day Trek – June 2024

Have just walked the 9 day Larapinta trek with Trek Larapinta. It was fabulous! Guides were great, food was incredible, walks were challenging and through stunningly beautiful scenery. And camp was SO well set up - camping in swags and tents but under pretty luxurious conditions- toilets, basin wash area in the sun, camp fire at night, fresh coffee, and did I mention the incredible food?! Loved, loved, loved it.

- Catherine – 9 Day Trek – May 2024

Did the 9 day Larapinta highlights with Matt and Tori as our guides. What a fantastic experience. They kept everyone entertained with their passion for trekking, cultural heritage and the environment. Their knowledge and skill was amazing. The meals they prepared were incredible. Can't speak highly enough of the journey. Australia truly is a remarkable place.

- George on TripAdvisor June 2023

A group of 8 friends recently took part in the 9 day 8 night Larapinta trek. The trek was fantastic because of our wonderful guides Kate ( Browny) and Johnny and the spectacular scenery. We had 2 tents per couple which was excellent for getting dressed in and storing our gear. The tents were spread out and set in beautiful scenery. Our guides were so much fun to be with as well as being awesome cooks. They tended to our blisters and taught us about the fauna and flora. I can highly recommend this company and trek. Thank you Browny and Johnny.

- Stephanie on TripAdvisor September 2022

From the moment we booked our trip to the time we said goodbye, the planning and implementation of our 9 day trek went pretty much stress free with Trek Larapinta. In the hands of Ash and Matt, our generous, caring and entertaining guides/hosts, we were introduced to 9 days of very big skies, amazing scenery, millenia of history, both natural and cultural (with a sense of deep respect for our first nation) and some amazing food. The camp sites were both wonderful, with views and fantastic sunset/sunrises. It was also wonderful at the end of a hot days walking to come back to our half bucket of warm water shower and then to sit around our campfire to get to know the rest of our small group, all very special people whose life stories added to the break from a hurried pace of life. The walking highlight was the trip up Mt. Sonder, arriving to a brilliant red/purple/orange horizon and settling in to greet the sun at the top, with Ash and Matt our guides having fresh brewed coffee and camp made banana cake ("You dont get this with any other trek company"). Can only highly recommend Trek Larapinta, and Ash and Matt - a great team which allowed us to experience just a small part of our vast country.

- Matt on TripAdvisor August 2022

Nick & Naomi were great. Professional, knowledgeable, passionate about their role & the country they were taking us through - and amazing cooks! They are both an asset to your company. Pre tour information was comprehensive and communication was clear. Exceeded my expectations - camps were terrific. Food - Great - certainly didn’t lose weight 🙂

- Tanya on the 9 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (July 2019)

Tour experience was delightful! Climbing Mt Sonder for the sunrise, starlit nights, sunshine, camping, being in the bush and no cooking! Lucy and Alina were fantastic, fun guides and did a marvellous job with the meal preparation, organisation and catering for individual differences in walking abilities! Thank you!!

- Sandra on the 9 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (August 2019)

This was a brilliant, moving, inspirational and sensational trip. Perfectly organised, more than I expected. All my needs were fully met.

- Angela on the 9 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (September 2019)

Walking everyday in an awesome and inspiring landscape feeling well supported with a beautiful group of people and wonderful guides.

- Libby on the 9 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (August 2019)

Cal & Jacob were both exceptional guides with experience and wisdom well beyond their years. The swag / tent option was well executed. Never hungry, guides were excellent cooks.

- Stuart on the 9 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (July 2019)

Enjoyed Larapinta experience-guides were very professional and friendly-they worked well as a team. The meals they cooked were very good and they catered well for my gluten free diet. Anzac day sunrise on Mt Sonder was definitely one of many highlights. Thanks so much.

- Natalie on the 9 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (April 2019)

I completed the Larapinta end to end with Trek in 2015. It was an amazing trip that rekindled my love of hiking. Last January I heard that it had got even better. I decided to return to do a 9 Day. While the hiking has largely remained the same - awesome, the bush camps and food have gone to the next level. As usual the Guides - Mikel and Zoe were superb. They kept the group safe, well educated and extremely well fed. The HiAce van is also a great improvement on the old troop carriers. I'd also like to mention Jess in Treks admin team. She has fixed up my booking mistakes several times. I undertake an average of 9 hiking trips a year - generally group guided. Trek Tours is easily the best hiking company in Australia.

- Alan on TripAdvisor June 2024

The 16 day end to end Larapinta Trek was amazing. On a group guided trip it's the guides that make the trip and Riley & Tash were excellent. They were very good at managing the group with the different levels of experience. They were always enthusiastic and nothing was an issue. The food was great and I'm a fussy eater but there was plenty I could eat. The guides took great pride in preparing and cooking the meals. The scenery was amazing and the wildflowers were out, every day was different. Riley & Tash's flora & fauna knowledge was excellent. 16 days on the trail was tough but very rewarding. I would highly recommend Trek Tours. The tour was well organised from start to finish and the small group sizes was great.

- Ros on TripAdvisor June 2024

We have nothing but praise for Trek Larapinta and Jen and Pen our outstanding guides! We recently completed the 16 day end-to-end Larapinta Trail trek. From our booking experience in May 2022 to the pre-trek communication and information to our last lunch together on the trail, we were blown away! In particular we would like to thank Jen and Pen for their positivity, nothing is too much trouble attitude, their warmth, knowledge of the trail and love for their job. They guided us into the daily routine that we would follow for the 16 days so that we were able to relax and be present to each stage, without thinking too much about what was to come. We were blown away by the food Jen and Pen prepared for us; always delicious, diverse and full of energy to set us up for trekking. Celebrations after particularly long days were always fun. We bonded with our fellow trekkers and guides over meals and shared experiences. And we haven't even mentioned the majesty of the West MacDonnell ranges that we trekked through. Such beauty in both the vast expanses and the delicate flowers! We highly recommend this experience!

- Alison on TripAdvisor August 2023

I completed the 16 day end to end hike with Trek Larrapinta in May/June 2022. Our guides Jen & Michael were the dream team! Not only were they highly experienced and knowledgeable guides, they were also generous hosts. They were passionate about delivering an intimate wilderness experience with minimal impact on the environment. They executed this beautifully by building strong and positive group dynamics among 8 complete strangers who all became friends! They shared their love and knowledge of the Larrapinta and the Central Australian desert responsibly and with authenticity. Jen, in particular, can spin a great yarn and spot a rare bird from a mile away! They both ensured our campsites were as remote as possible and managed the campsites using leave no trace principles. As well as guiding us safely along the Larrapinta, Jen & Michael also took us on a gourmet food safari! Both incredible cooks, we were treated to the most delicious wholesome meals I have ever experienced on a guided tour. Pumpkin gnocchi with burnt butter and crispy sage after a full days hike - yes please! Our hike was not without its challenges - blistered feet, tired and cranky hikers and bad weather - however Jen and Michael handled these with endless positivity, professionalism and calm, clear communication all while managing the expectations and dynamics of the group. There is no doubt that Jen and Michael are some of the best guides in the business. I would highly recommend Trek Larrapinta!

- Kylie on the 16 Day End to End Larapinta Trail Trek (2022)

I’ve lived in Alice Springs for 40+ years, and at long last have ticked off walking the Larapinta Trail end to end, thanks to Trek Larapinta, who carried camp, cooked up a storm, and gave us all the guidance, care and encouragement we could wish for. Our guides, Louis and Jonny, were both an absolute treasure, and we were lucky to have a group of 6 who clicked so well together. The trip was immaculately planned and delivered, and we were rewarded with oodles of delicious fresh food, extraordinary wildflower displays, perfect walking weather, dazzling views and great camaraderie. To really enjoy this you need good gear and good fitness, as per the detailed and accurate info Trek Larapinta gives you on their website.

- Russel on the 16 Day End to End Larapinta Trek – June 2021

The most amazing trek we have ever been on! The guides were exceptional. The patience and encouragement shown to us by Declan and Lish was off the charts amazing. The camp sites were fantastic especially the final 5 nights. Sunrise on Mt Sonder was spectacular but every moment of every day was a highlight, even in the heat. Swimming in the water holes and later in the Finke River was pretty special. The campfires in the morning to sit around and cook the toast on were just lovely and watching the stars at night and seeing at least one shooting star each night was fabulous. PS thank you to Clare for care and consideration when we made the unscheduled trip to Alice Springs hospital with Lish. As per every moment during the trip, the guides and then Clare made complex arrangements looks seamless and hassle free.

- Pip & Jeff on the 16 Day End to End Larapinta Trail Trek (April 2019)

Brad and Jacob were so fantastic, they made it a very stress-free experience for us. It was great to know we were being so well looked after regarding all aspects of the trek. Food was fabulous! Ate so well. A definite highlight was Brad and Jacob's knowledge of the track, its history, geology, flora and fauna. We would never have learnt so much doing it on our own.

- Lisa & Andrew on the 16 Day End to End Larapinta Trail Trek (August 2019)

The trek itself was memorable in every way and very much exceeded my expectations. The walking was sufficiently challenging to allow a real sense of accomplishment at the end of each day; the landscape was surprisingly varied and colourful; the learnings of culture and nature from our guides (Declan and Simon) was always relevant and interesting; each camping site was unique and relaxing; the meals and snacks provided were first class and always enjoyable. All of this was bound together by the positive personalities of Declan and Simon, who provided great support and guidance when needed and proved to be entertaining raconteurs, especially in the relaxing times around the campfire at night.

- Greg on the 16 Day End to End Larapinta Trail Trek (August 2019)

The knowledge of our guides was exceptional, and their interactions with all trekkers were inclusive, personal, supportive, and loads of fun. The meals provided were amazing, and overall, the experience by far exceeded my expectations - sleeping under the stars, camp fires in the evening, the harsh beauty of the environment coupled with the incredible geological formations, and the camaraderie of the entire group (including our guides) kept me entertained and exhilarated the whole time. Many thanks for such a fantastic trek.

- Jenni on the 16 Day End to End Larapinta Trail Trek (August 2019)

Our guides Brad and Jacob made the trip a memorable experience. Their interest and knowledge of the Larapinta was wonderful. They are both awesome cooks and the food was amazing. The gorges, ridges and waterholes were fabulous. We enjoyed camping on the Finke and sleeping under the stars.

- Cath & Malcolm on the 16 Day End to End Larapinta Trail Trek (August 2019)

Kate and Brad were excellent. They were passionate and informed. They brought a depth of experience and local insights which added significant value to the overall trip experience. Their social skills created a cohesive and enjoyable trip. This included managing different individual skills/fitness, expectations and capabilities. Their leadership was thoughtful - enough intervention to keep us 'on track' and not overbearing and controlling. Very appropriate for the group. Blister management was also pretty good too!

- Steve on the 16 Day End to End Larapinta Trail Trek (July 2019)

Benny & Morgan were our guides for 16 days end to end supported hike. At all times they showed maturity well beyond their years. At all times they were courteous, obliging, fun, organised and knowledgeable. Their knowledge of local surrounds was excellent, particularly Morgan, and if they did not know they always endeavoured to find out. The local knowledge of flora, fauna, geology and track details was a stand-out and a point of difference for Trek Larapinta. I also really valued the evening with local Indigenous lady and the local knowledge she offered. I also enjoyed the ability to walk at my own pace, without feeling any pressure to move on, but also supported to arrive safely. On two separate occasions I was encouraged and supported by Benny, kindly and safely, to navigate two sections I, personally, found extremely challenging. The equipment, vehicle, swags, tents, semi-permanent camps, toilet pop-up tent etc etc all contributed to the little bit of extra comfort during the trip. Last, but certainly not least, the food was incredible. Both Benny & Morgan were exceptional cooks and the range of fresh food was truly enjoyable and delicious. They worked so well together as a team. I could not recommend nor rate Benny & Morgan any higher as guides and Trek Larapinta as a company with attention to detail. May I also add that all communications with Clare have been excellent and the booking and preparation process comprehensive and easy to follow. The cost is excellent value for money. So thank you to all at Trek Larapinta for all the work you do behind and in front of the scenes to share the experience of Larapinta with guests like us. Best hiking experience I have had to date. Keep up the great work!

- Annabel on the 16 Day End to End Larapinta Trek (June 2018)

Brilliant "Super 6" 6-day trek on the Larapinta Trail. Everything was done beautifully. Exceptionally well organised and run by our wonderful guides who were super friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and attentive to every detail of the experience, including the excellent meals which far exceeded anything I would have expected. They looked after us so well and made it a truly first-rate experience. All my previous hikes have been self-guided, but this trek allowed us to do and see things (and with a level of luxury in terms of food, gear and not carrying full packs!) that I would not have been able to do on my own. The landscape and the hiking itself were extraordinary. One of the best things I've ever done.

- Nicki – Super 6 Day Trek – August 2024

I just completed the Super 6 with Trek Larinpinta! It was an incredible experience. The guides were excellent, full of genuine passion for this amazing part of Australia. They were fun, friendly and paced these challenging walks perfectly. You got an authentic experience sleeping in a swag under the stars, but had excellent meals prepared for you every day. I wouldn't do this wonderful part of the world any differently. It was an epic adventure with great food, laughs and great new people to experience it with!

- Catherine – Super 6 Day Trek – June 2024

Trek Larapinta Super 6 was the best overall experience we ever had. Amazing, professional, friendly, fun and inspiring guides Em and Mikael were very well prepared and organised and looked after us exceptionally well. We were very lucky with the wonderful group of people that we had as well as the weather, however, the Trek Larapinta team was the foundation for the successful trip altogether. I would highly recommend Trek Larapinta to anyone as we truly had the most wonderful time. I would not explore Larapinta on my own due to the extreme weather conditions and harsh natural environment, but with the Trek Larapinta this super challenging expedition we had fabulous time and enjoyed ourselves to the maximum.

- Marketa - Super 6 Day Trek – August 2024

Just completed the super 6 day challenge and already can't stop thinking about when I can return. The scenery is amazing and the views / skies are incredible. It is very tough with no easy days and expect early starts to earn the rewards. I did this with my two eldest kids who are 13 and 16. They found it very tough going at times but enjoyed it. The food is perfect with Trek Larapinta and the guides we had (Riley & Tori) were outstanding both in terms of their knowledge and passion. Take poles and a proper backpack to get the most out of this as I didn't.

- Simon - Super 6 Day Trek – July 2023

The Super 6 is a wonderful way to immerse yourself into the feel of NT’s hiking centre for time poor, fit hikers. Trek Larapinta eases any concerns for first timers to this area by providing knowledgeable guides and an organised and flexible itinerary. Sleeping in a swag actually helps ground oneself into the earthiness of this experience. The scenery is awesome. The trails are diverse providing a quintessential Australian trek. The smaller group size of 8 is ideal, particularly if travelling as a solo.

- Jax - Super 6 Day Trek – August 2022

If I could give this company and our experience with them more than 5 stars, then I would. It was next level amazing. My dad and I did the super 6 day trek in July and couldn’t have asked for a better desert hiking experience. It was everything we could have hoped for and more. The small group size was ideal and the way in which our guides (Tori and Lani) managed the dynamics was really professional and ensured that everyone got the most out of the hiking despite having a very broad range of fitness levels to cater for. The hiking itinerary itself was awesome. We specifically chose this trek tour because we wanted the most physically challenging and scenically rewarding experience that we could have and it more than delivered on both fronts. Epic ridges, valleys and gorges, not to mention amazing desert blooms and sunrises. We loved that every day was full on and jam packed and certainly didn’t leave you with time for thumb twiddling. Make sure you only do the Super 6 Day Trek if you have a really high level of hiking fitness and are wanting a pretty full on week of solid trekking. It is not for a relaxing holiday stroll experience. The camp setup and food situation was super good. The quality of food was especially noteworthy and could not be faulted. The girls not only carried and prepared lunch daily, but also brought along thermoses for hot drinks. Way beyond the call of duty if you ask me. They definitely did everything possible to make everyone comfortable. Honestly couldn’t fault them. Don’t bother considering to do the Larapinta with any other company. Trek Larapinta are the best.

- Kayla - Super 6 Day Trek – July 2022

The Super 6 Trek was incredible. I could not recommend Trek Larapinta more highly. The groups are small (8 people) with 2 guides - which felt intimate and also safe. You can not underestimate how remote the trail is, and so to have a small guest to guide ratio was a real comfort. The food was amazing, the guides incredibly knowledgeable about the area, plants, animals and culture. The days are long and the conditions are hard, but a life changing experience.

- Kate - Super 6 Day Trek – May 2022

The whole trek was just so awesome. Highlights were sleeping under the stars, the gullies, the ridges with the views, seeing the crazy/lovely French marathon runners cruise by, the swims, both the guides, feeling of achievement at the end of Day 5 (30km day), Cal's porridge, Lucy's last day brunch, howling dingoes as we climbed Mount Sonder for the sunrise....and then the Todd River flowing through Alice after we returned!!! Thank you for an absolutely incredible experience.

- Carolyn on the Super 6 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (May 2019)

I took this trip as a “treat” when I couldn’t get logistics for an End to End Larapinta to work - I was really unsure how it would pan out having never been glamping or with “glampers”. It really surpassed all my expectations and I am now inspired to go back and do End to End when logistics work -  with much better knowledge about the track and what to bring and more importantly what not to being -  the guides (Kate & Lucy) also had so much knowledge in the area, flora, fauna and geography, how to run a trek and work with a group and a joy in imparting it and they just seemed to love sharing the specialness of the Larapinta with us.  Thanks to the guides, my fellow trekkers and all those that work behind the scenes to provide this amazing experience!

- Tracie on the Super 6 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (June 2019)

A most incredible adventure, I seriously loved every minute of it. Terrific guides with comprehensive knowledge, not only about the local area but our amazing world. This is a must do for anyone wanting to challenge themselves - it is tough so be prepared!

- Carol on the Super 6 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (July 2019)

Overall an excellent experience with a good group - both Morgan and Jill were terrific, competent and friendly guides - thank you.

- Carol & Craig on the Super 6 Day Larapinta Trail Trek (July 2019)

A huge thank you to Trek Larapinta for another amazing adventure through the West Macs. It's been a week now that we've woken to the sounds of the iPhone rather than the dingo howl and our whole group has missed that along with the magnificent location and the quiet offered by our recent getaway. From the initial contact and organisation, all the communication about itineraries, gear lists and questions (thanks Clare) right through the trek itself, this is a company that sets and meets a high standard. A huge thanks to Sharna and Cal who were our guides for this trip. Their knowledge of the area, their care for all of us and their awesome cooking kept us going on our Super Six trip. For my partner and I, this was our second trip with Trek Larapinta and it was simply incredible, just like the first one. Thank you again for such a special week.

- Anoushka on the Super 6 Larapinta Trail Trek (September 2018)

The guides (Nathan & Lish) were very excited to be part of the trek. They were very enthusiastic and very professional. They ensured our welfare and safety at all times and offered information about our experience as we were going along. They worked well together and always put our needs first. They had tremendous respect for the environment and inspired me to be the same.

- Michael on the 5 Day Mt Giles Explorer Trek (May 2019)

I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the trek to Mt Giles with Josh and Ben a few weeks ago. They were amazing even when I didn't start very well on the first day! Everything was up to your usual high standard and I am always amazed at the food that comes out of their packs. Check out Kristine's review of her Mt Giles expedition at Mt Giles Expedition
