Australian Outback Family Trips/Tours Reviews
This was an amazing opportunity to explore the highlights of Australia’s Red Centre. Our guides, Elyse and Ty, were enthusiastic shepherds for a diverse group of guests. Enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and personable, you could tell they took special pride in sharing their love for this amazing country. This trip does require a good level of physical fitness. Elyse and Ty ensured that everyone was accommodated. This pair of seniors were able to complete the full journey. Highest recommendation for this adventure.
