My family joined Bruce for a guided passenger tour which was a highlight on our trip. I emailed Bruce for my booking and was invited to choose a time that my group wished to take the tour. He's very flexible. The tour itself was very worthwhile, as we had an enjoyable time taking in the beautiful and unique sights, and... More

We took the opportunity to travel as passengers with Bruce while we had a brief stay at Shoal Bay and it was a real highlight. Bruce has a really excentric personality and this shines through in his tours, so too his passion for people respecting the local area. On two occasions Bruce had words with people who were either acting... More

I did this 4wd tagalong tours with Bruce for my birthday. The most vital part of this company is Bruce's character. Not only he provided the professional service of tagalong 4wd but also his ability to turn nervousness into confidence specially for first timers like me. Not a lot of my mates thought my Forza will not make it but... More

I have never done this before and was bit scared to drive my 4WD there. Bruce took me on his vehicle and cruised through the sand dunes experiencing some great dunes. He is amazing and was instructing me as well how to be safe in a place like this. The skate boarding was real adrenalin rush experience for me. I... More

The tour was fantastic. We took our own vehicle and with expert advice and direction we conquered the great dunes of Stockton Beach. Bruce the very patient owner and instructor of Tag-A-Long Tours, has a humorous story for every situation. The instruction is light hearted and done in such a manner that you don't realise you are beng taught how... More

We had the Tin City and Shipwreck tour with Bruce last weekend. Weather was perfect for sand dune tours. We had a great experience touring the sand dunes with Bruce providing great information about the dunes. We had more than 3 hours while it was supposed to be only for 3 hours. Bruce didn't rush us through any of the... More

Me and my friends went on the passenger tour guided by Bruce and had an absolutely fantastic time at the Stockton sand dunes! We learnt quite a bit of interesting facts about the sand dunes itself and the community surrounding and living in the dunes. Had great fun screaming our way down the steep dunes in the 4WD and sandboarding... More
