Testimonial
Lillian Tebbutt
Read what satisfied clients have to say about their experiences with Tailored STA.
"As someone with limited mobility, I was hesitant about visiting the remote and rugged regions of North Queensland. However, the team at Tailored STA went above and beyond to ensure my trip was not only accessible but truly remarkable. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and supported. The accommodations were perfectly suited to my needs, the transportation was comfortable and reliable, and the activities were tailored to my abilities. I was able to explore the lush rainforests, snorkel the vibrant Great Barrier Reef, and immerse myself in the rich indigenous culture, all without any barriers or limitations. This was a life-changing experience that has left me with incredible memories. I can't thank Lillian of Tailored STA enough for making my dream trip to North Queensland a reality."
