    Transport
    • TrafalgarOperator•Written October 2022

      Unfortunately this tour will not be running in September 2023. The last available departure date would be in August. One of the reasons for this the temperature as it does tend it get a bit hotter in that region come September with July and August probably some of the best months to travel this part of Australia.
