On our Cobb & Co Stagecoach Experience you’ll travel in a restored stagecoach on our award-winning tour – first at a leisurely pace through town and then full-tilt along a stretch of the original Longreach-Windorah mail route. Hear the pounding hooves of the magnificent horses on the outback dirt road. Hear the rattle and creak of the coach. Hold on to your hat for the only stagecoach gallop in Australia! It’s exhilarating. It’s entertaining. And it’s the closest you can get to feeling what it would have been like in the pioneer past. After the ride (depending on your itinerary) slow down with a traditional smoko (scones, jam, cream with tea). You'll also enjoy a classic Australian bush movie in retro cinema seats. Afterwards, browse through the Cobb and Co Courtyard collection.

Stagecoach ride was amazing and scones and tea was very tasty

4.00The stagecoach ride and gallop was amazing. The morning tea, scones and tea was amazing, although I felt we were rushed to finish, but then had to wait 30min for the talk about the different buggies and equipment etc. The movie in the old time cinema with canvas chairs was great although I think I shorter film would surfice. Watching a 90min film was just to much.
Fun time

4.00There is the stagecoach ride to the common and all other activities are at the pick up venue. Movie was good and we were inside for the coach ride so not really that dusty. Scones were very nice. Tent show missed the mark.
