Getabout Training: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Had an amazing time and learned a huge amount. Really recommend 'Get About'!
Fantastic experience: Recommend booking a few weeks ahead to get through the thorough, lovingly-prepared training materials. High-quality continues through the in person training component with an instructor as knowledgeable about communicating the training to diverse participants as about the course content (and beyond). Learning that off-road driving method through practical tips and exercises adds a lot of confidence and I'd recommend Getabout to anyone looking to upskill off-road.
Fantastic experience: Our project team recently completed a 4WD training course with Ricky Esser in ADL and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Ricky's expertise in 4WD techniques and his deep understanding of the terrain made the training both informative and practical. He took the time to ensure that each team member was comfortable with the equipment and confident in their abilities to navigate challenging conditions. His teaching style is patient and thorough, making even the most complex maneuvers easy to grasp. Ricky's passion for 4WD is evident in every aspect of his training. He not only covered the essentials but also provided valuable tips and insights that we can apply in real-world scenarios. The hands-on approach and the focus on safety were particularly appreciated. Overall, the training has significantly enhanced our team's skill set, and we feel much more prepared to tackle off-road challenges in our projects. I highly recommend Ricky Esser to anyone looking to gain solid 4WD skills. Thank you, Ricky, for a fantastic training experience!
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We strive to set the highest standards possible and Ricky is one of our most experienced instructors.
Fantastic experience: I had a one day trip prep/4x4 workshop; what a great workshop and wonderful trainer, Graham, who really took the time to understand my requirements and my vehicle. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: Ricky's competence built my confidence to operate a 4WD and the skills I learnt has prolonged my life. Great instructor and lots of fun.
Fantastic experience: " these guys are lifesavers " nrma could not help me with their 2 wheel drive cars even a tow truck could not help me ( i was bogged in " slushy wet grass " ) nrma put me onto " get about" ) guess what: these guys really are " lifesavers " and the " nicest people you can meet " got me out of trouble ( my car was ready to give up as well ( laugh out loud and " buried itself" into the " soggy ground" ( like a car burial lol) conclusion: ( thank you hope you like my " scents of humour!"
Hi Kerry, Not a problem, happy to help and so glad we were able to get you out safely and easily. Beware of wet grass!!
Fantastic experience: What a wonderful day we had thoroughly learning the ropes of 4wd-ing to ensure we have the fundementals required before venturing offroad. Our trainers were super superrr knowledgeable and were always there to answer each and every question everyone had. Any issues learners had along trails were easily solved with correct techniques thanks to the trainers. I recommend everyone who owns a 4x4 to book the course with Getabout and learn learn learn, you will leave with a wealth of knowledge. Youtube is not the way to go, trust me, it's not the same. First bit of the training is in their huuuuuge acreage along paths deep into the mountains and afterwards we were taken out of the property and into the state forest nearby. We were taught so many things that I have not learnt anywhere else, especially with helping take care of the tracks and the environment as we go. Absolutely fantastic day. Worth every cent. And on an end note, the owners of the business work with WIRES treating injured local wildlife, rehabilitating them and then releasing. My hearttttt❤️
Hi Nace, so glad you had a great training. It is what we are about - getting into the bush safely and occasionally helping out the wildlife as well.
Fantastic experience: Great staff and training environment. Trainers have massive amount of experience and are very willing to help you out regardless of experience. Recently undertook ATV and Side by side training for work which was a deciding factor in getting the contract. Highly recommended!
Great stuff and a really worthwhile training. So many people don't realise the dangers. Always good to do training and get a safe mindset instilled.
Fantastic experience: I have done multiple courses with Getabout Training and cannot recommend them more highly. Their instructors are great and informative while delivering a fun day of driving as well. The training areas are challenging and beautiful and you will learn so much not only about your vehicle and how it works but also about how to safely drive your vehicle or tow your trailer or Van depending on the course you do. No matter your experience level I thoroughly recommend doing one of their courses.
Hi Matthew, Thanks for the review. We really do strive to prepare drivers for their adventures.
Fantastic experience: Excellent Knowledge and Great Customer Service. Towing Courses are top notch
