A BIG thank you to Ben and especially Kenny for the 4 days tour! The entire experience was comfortable, relaxing, and hassle-free. They were always punctual (sometimes even early) and really flexible and accommodating to our requests. We managed to visit all the places we wanted, and we were thoroughly satisfied with the overall experience. We didn't have to worry about tickets to attractions as they took care of everything for us. Highly recommend their services!

Our private tour of Phillip Island with our driver Kenny was definitely a highlight of our trip to Australia. Kenny was extremely knowledgeable, fun and informative and he made sure that we didn't miss a thing. He even provided us with binoculars at the Penguin Parade to spot things we would have missed! Kenny's car was immaculately clean and stocked with water and snacks and he even took photos of my family so that we would have the best memories. Highly recommend!!

I would absolutely recommend Culture Quest tours to anyone traveling in Australia! My husband and I visited during our honeymoon and Ben was so accommodating and helpful with planning out our private tour. We had an incredible experience, unforgettable moments and memories that will last a lifetime! Our tour guide Kenny truly made our day special with knowledge and history about each stop. Thank you Culture Quest tours for an amazing day!

Kenny was our guide for the Phillip Island tour and we were all very impressed with his knowledge and professionalism. He picked us up at our hotel and took us to a few sites before we saw the penguins go back to their homes at sunset. We stopped at Koala Conservation Reserve where we saw native animals: kangaroos, koalas, wallabies, emus, etc. Since we were the only ones on the tour, we got to pick the restaurant we wanted to go to on Phillip Island from Kenny's suggestions. After dinner, we walked on the boardwalk at the Nobbies and saw a few wild wallabies in the grass. Then he drove us to Phillip Island Nature Park and waited for us while we got to see the penguins emerge from the ocean. Watching those little fairy penguins waddle back to their home was an amazing experience. We spent about an hour watching the penguins and then we saw Kenny in the lobby, ready to take us back to our hotel at midnight. We highly suggest the tour and would go on another tour with Culture Quest Tours. Ben was very receptive to our needs and communicated well with me throughout the whole process

I am so glad I went with Ben from Culture Quest Tours for my bonding trip with my 20yo son before he goes army. It was the BEST and most memorable part of the of tour, and the credit goes to Ben. Never a bored moment. Fantastic and seamless itinerary, without idling and waiting time. Started the day with Maru Koala park where we saw and fed wallabies, has close encounters with the animals while Ben shared facts about them. Next we went on board a 2hr cruise to catch the seals. Ben was with with us all the way, sharing his vast knowledge and interesting stories about countries he visited. We had Geography/History lessens how French island came about and much more. There were loads of seals spotted on the seal rock! Awesome and really felt exhilarated to be sharing this moment with my son! We were then whisked off to our scenic Cape Woolamai & Philip island HELICOPTER RIDE! Words cant descibed how we felt high up in the sky. Son said that was the best experience he ever had! Next Ben brought us to Isola Di Capri for dinner. Breathtaking views with a humorous waitress and food was so gooooood! I wish I could eat it again. Our second last destination was Nobbies to catch the sunset. Ben did something 'naughty' in order to capture this beautiful moment and to witness the beauty of the cliff scenery & costal views. (Pls ask him to share this 'naughty' story with you guys!) It was also at this place, Ben suggested to take a video of my son and I hugging together with the sunset in the background ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Our last destination is to go watch the penguins. With the recommendation from Ben, we upgraded to Penguin Plus tickets and saw those amazing penguins waddled right in front of us!!
The day ended beautifully and I am really grateful to Ben for providing this world class service to my son and I.
What an itinerary! What an experience!! Will definitely recommend Ben to my friends who wants to visit Melbourne!!! Thank you Culture Quest Tours, thank you Ben!

Ben came out to Healsville to pick us up for our personalised wine tour of the Yarra valley. He was so professional and friendly and had everything organised to a tee. We had an amazing day and were made to feel very special. Great wineries, not rushed and a great experience.
We would highly recommend using Ben and his team, for a truly personal experience. Thanks Ben

I went on a walking tour with Ben a few days ago and couldn't have asked for more. Ben was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and did an excellent job showing us around Melbourne's highlights and hidden gems. We noticed many beautiful buildings and cute laneways while learning about Melbourne. I relished the coffee break in a lovely laneway where I could now find myself. We learned a lot and had a great time. Melbourne has captured my heart! I wholeheartedly endorse it!

“I recommend Culture Quest Tours as they are a very informative and interactive tour. You actually feel like you are there and it’s amazing. The host is very nice and explains everything thoroughly. I have done both Virtual tours of Persia and can’t decide a favourite as they were equally good. I’m looking forward to joining more tours. Keep up the good work Bahman ????"

I have participated in two virtual tours of Iran organised by Culture Quest Tours. Having spent three weeks in Iran in 2015, I was interested in re-visiting the country which I had found fascinating. The virtual tours did not disappoint but on the contrary re-ignited my appreciation of this wonderful culturally rich country. Bahman, the tour guide knows his country like the back of his hand and leads you through the land with a wealth of knowledge, answering questions throughout the journey.
if you have always wondered what Iran is like, I recommend you to join one of Bahman's amazing tours. You will undoubtedly be compelled to travel this wondrous land when the borders open.
