EXPLORE THE OUTBACK
Discover the unique landscape, culture and people of South Australia’s Outback with this new five-day, fully escorted tour. The tour includes a four-wheel-drive adventure in some of the Flinders Ranges’ most rugged mountain terrain, where you will be able to see kangaroos, emus and wallabies in the wild. While you’re in the Flinders, you’ll stay in style at Wilpena Pound Resort. Another highlight of the tour will be your time in the colourful opal-mining town of Coober Pedy, where you will have the chance to stay underground in the Desert Cave Hotel and even try your hand at opal mining. The South Australian Outback is a big place, and this tour allows you to spend as much time as possible enjoying the attractions by flying instead of driving between key locations.
