River & Ocean Expeditions

“I have worked on Rafting expeditions all over the world, the Franklin remains the most consistent at giving its visitors an unforgettable adventure. It is one of the Greatest Wilderness Rafting Rivers in the world. Registered as World Heritage, the Franklin Gordon Wild Rivers National Park has a long history of aboriginal occupation and more recently a valuable resource for the early white settlers. Saved in the early 80’s from the threat of Hydro Electric companies, its beauty and ability to change its character daily, make it a wild place, down in the south west of stunning Tasmania. it calls me back, every time.”

“i just love to go camping in the wilderness. Rafting is the best way to take as much good food, beer and equipment as you like, imagine trying to carry this stuff on your back bushwalking, its also a great way to get to these magical campsites, thats what makes me want to keep rafting the Franklin, even after 20 years”
