Professional, Personal and Unforgettable Our experience with the Cape to Cape crew was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived until the final steps into Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse, every detail was thoughtfully planned, allowing us to focus on what mattered most—immersing ourselves in one of Australia's most spectacular coastal walks. We chose the self-guided Fast and Furious Cape to Cape experience, and it was the perfect balance of independence and support. From the very beginning, Gene made us feel completely looked after. His local knowledge, practical advice, route briefings and genuine enthusiasm for the track gave us the confidence to simply enjoy the journey. Every transfer was punctual and seamless, our luggage was always waiting for us at the next destination, and the accommodations were excellent. What impressed us most was that although we were walking independently, we never felt like we were on our own. Gene was only ever a phone call away and checked in to make sure everything was running smoothly. His passion for the Cape to Cape Track is infectious, and his tips about the best places to stop, explore and take in the scenery truly enhanced our experience. He even corrected us right at the very end to esnure we finihsed in the track and not on the road! The logistics were flawless, allowing our group of five friends to focus on what mattered most—walking, laughing, challenging ourselves and taking in the incredible beauty of the Margaret River coastline. Knowing that all the behind-the-scenes details had been expertly managed made the experience completely stress-free. If you're considering a self-guided Cape to Cape walk, we couldn't recommend this team more highly. You get the freedom to walk at your own pace while enjoying the reassurance of having experienced locals looking after every detail. Thank you, Gene, for your professionalism, warmth and exceptional organisation. You played a huge part in making our five-day adventure one that we'll remember for the rest of our lives.

WA Cape to Cape walk- An amazing experience, not to be missed! MY 8 day WA Cape to Cape walk with 7 friends, was amazing. the walk itself is beautiful and diverse. Days are not to hard, but are long and filled with fun, laughter and guides knowledge of the area, from fauna, flora, marine life, Aboriginal culture to the history of Australia in WA. The Cape-to-Cape company from the Owner; Gene, to the CEO Floss and the amazing Guides and staff where we were staying are second to none. I am an experienced hiker/walker and have been with many companies all over the world and I have to say that the Cape-to-Cape team was the best. From organisation, experience, knowledge, but most importantly the tight knit family feel this company has, making sure you have everything you need to make this walk the best experience. The added touches, at night with the amazing food, hot water bottles in our glamming tents, to surprise scones for morning tea along the track, is what makes this company special.

A great adventure This hike with Cape to Cape Explorer Tours was a great experience. The coastline, wildlife and surrounding landscapes are stunning. And the organisation of the hike also made it memorable. Good food, accommodation and logistics mean you don't have to think beyond getting yourself on the bus every day. Highly recommended the guided version of this trip. The guides are genuinely passionate and knowledgeable about the environment they work in and go to great lengths to make sure you get the best out of the hike.

Wild beauty beyond the vinyards My friends and I did the 8 days, from Cape to Cape, and it was wonderful. The team that look after us were exceptional in every way, especially in accommodating my inability to do ALL of the track, as I was recovering from an illness. Highly recommended.

Cape to Cape - give it a crack with Gene the Gem and his genies. You will not be disappointed. Gene clearly has a great radar for finding amazing staff and coworkers; together they have created a special experience for people who love hiking, swimming, flora, fauna, great food, history etc etc - nothing is left to chance.
