5.00The tour was exceptional. Andrea was an interesting, informed and entertaining guide. The aboriginal guides were spectacular; it was an honor to hear their story and be allowed to visit their land. Two other guides, Lucy and Jackie helped everyone have a good experience. Although we had to deal with swarms of flies, the experience was ideal. We learned aboriginal history, traveled the land, navigated around a herd of camels, dug for ghost moth larvae (which were cooked at sunset for those interested in trying; they tasted like a sweet corn kernel, squishy inside a soft shell), and enjoyed a private sunset experience away from the crowds. The tour was unforgettable.

5.00This was an interesting opportunity to see the Outback on Aboriginal land. Our driver and guide did an excellent job of making the tour interexting and enjoyable for all. We learned from the stories by Verna, an Aborginal lady as she shared their history and showed us two works of art created by her nephew. The ride was on dirt roads or no roads so expect to bounce . We did have one problem as there was a time change and we were not notified. That resulted in two of our party missing the excursion as they had a different activity planned and three of us needed to cancel an excursion to accommodate the new time. That said, the tour was great and we enjoyed our day very much. We found the driver/ guide to be especially welcoming and informative.
A real outback experience
