14/10/2022Introducing our new name: Feel Good Adventures

We’ve come a long way since we started running tours back in 2017.  Our vision, right from the start, was to help people feel good to be alive and we’ve done this by taking our guests to the best parts of Melbourne to do activities they love.

For the first year or two we were primarily focused on fitness activities like biking, kayaking and stand-up paddling. We absolutely loved doing this and so did the guests who joined us for these tours but, as we learned, most of our guests are looking for a balance of activity, relaxation and sightseeing while they explore the best parts of Melbourne. And we learned how much our guests value exceptional service and the small personal touches that make each day feel unique.

Our adventures gradually became less about fitness and more about experiencing the beauty of travel while getting to know like-minded travellers. Less time getting set up on bikes or kayaks means more time to connect and to give guests deep insights into what Melbourne’s all about. Our tours still include ‘active’ elements like hiking, but these are now suitable for virtually all of our guests, rather than being designed exclusively for ridiculously fit people.

In 2020 we started donating 50% of profits to charitable causes. This has brought meaning and purpose to our lives and is now an important reason why we do what we do. In 2019/20 (our last year of operation before the onset of the pandemic) we donated to the Peter Mac Cancer Centre (www.petermac.org) and to Against Malaria (www.againstmalaria.com). Separately to this, we provided support to our team members through the first Melbourne lockdown as many were ineligible for the federal government’s JobKeeper program.

So, as we enter the 2022/23 season we’ve updated our name to ‘Feel Good Adventures’ which we feel reflects our core objectives:

1. Helping people feel good to be alive through world class travel experiences

2. Building meaningful connections between our guests and other travellers as a means of further enhancing their experience on our tours

3. Giving something back to worthy causes by donating 50% of profits from each year of operation

This is an exciting new phase for our team and we’d like to celebrate by offering our friends and followers 25% off all tours booked between now and 31^st December 2022. Please use the code FEELGOOD when booking on our website to claim this offer.

We look forward to seeing you on a Feel Good Adventure soon!
