Walking with friends

Travel takes on a different quality when it’s shared with people you already know well. Booking an entire Southern Ocean Walk or the Fleurieu Gourmet Tour with a group of friends allows you to turn a walking holiday into a truly personal shared adventure — one shaped by familiar faces, shared interests and a relaxed, private atmosphere.

One of the greatest benefits of travelling as a private group is the ease and comfort it brings. Walking with friends means you already share a rhythm, a sense of humour and an understanding of one another’s pace and preferences. The experience feels like an extension of time spent together at home, just in a far more spectacular setting.

A private group booking also allows the walk to feel uniquely yours. With the tour reserved exclusively for your group, guides can tailor elements of the experience to suit your interests — whether that’s spending extra time exploring coastal geology, focusing on flora and wildlife, or simply allowing space to walk quietly together and soak up the landscape. Evenings are unhurried and social, with shared meals that become a highlight in their own right.

There’s also a strong practical advantage. Group bookings often provide better value, and we offer special rates for groups booking an entire tour, making it easier to plan a memorable experience together. With accommodation, meals, transport and guiding all organised, the logistics disappear — leaving your group free to enjoy the walk without distraction.

Perhaps most importantly, walking a trail together creates lasting shared memories. Long after the walk is over, stories of coastal views, changing weather and moments of quiet reflection become part of your group’s collective history.

If you’re looking for a meaningful way to celebrate a milestone, reconnect with friends or simply spend quality time together, a private Southern Ocean Walk offers the rare luxury of time, space and shared experience — enjoyed exclusively with the people who matter most.
