Hats off to Martin (Australian Trek Leader), he was excellent.  A very calming and knowledgeable guide.  

It seemed very expensive at first but after having completed the trek, I see where the money goes. The local trekking crew was fantastic, wonderful. Gareth {our Australian Trek Leader} was magnificent – That man needs an award!

Trip of a Lifetime.  Gareth {our Australian Trek Leader} made our trek memorable.  His professionalism and knowledge of the Track is second to none.

I would like to express my gratitude for the wonderful experience Back Track has given me over the last couple of weeks. Every single person from Back Track on the Kokoda trek went above and beyond expectations, everybody! I loved the experience so much, and PNG in general, and can’t wait to return. Thank you, and biggest thanks to our gorgeous Carla and my amazing porter, Danny – beautiful, wonderful people!

The team in the office and on the phone (Kylie & Clare in particular) was very helpful and willing to answer any questions.  The food on the Track was very good and always heaps of it. Carla {our Australian Trek Leader} was a fantastic guide – very friendly, encouraging, supportive and engaging.

It was an excellent trek.  It was very challenging physically and often quite emotional at the key points along the trek where we paid homage to the Australians how fought in the 1942 campaign.  I struggled at times on the Track, however John (our Australian Trek Leader), made sure I was well looked after which was much appreciated. 

Excellent Trek information guide.  I would not have thought of all things that were covered in the guide. Gareth’s enthusiasm was contagious and his knowledge of Kokoda history was wonderful – he put my mind back 75 years. I had the best holiday ever on this trip.  Loved IT!

Beautiful scenery.  Excellent Australian Trek leader, Tony, and great company from my fellow trekkers.  Enjoyed it immensely.  I had my birthday on the trek and that’s the most memorable and special one I’ve ever had.

I had a blast.  Best thing I’ve done and I’d do it again with Back Track!

Having everything included in the package made it more enjoyable and so much less to organise. Joining in on the Saturday walk with Ray from Back Track was great training and preparation leading up to the trek. Sharlene {our Australian Trek leader} was a fantastic leader and looked after every one of us every step of the way.
