Very informative, the station owners and guide were very knowledgeable and communicated well. Fortunately they were shearing when we did the trip, if there was no shearing the experience would have been a bit light on.

One of the best talks I have been to in years. Gives you a real feel for what it’s like to live on the land, both now and in the distant past. Shearing shed talk was up first and then an open top bus tour of the farm with a lunch set amount the trees. Just a great morning out.

Right from the pick-up it was interesting to hear the stories of the outback. We got a history of the town and landmarks were identified on the way to Nogo Station. I was not expecting the lunch pail and billy tea, which was great! I would definitely recommend taking this tour. You just can't get all that history wandering on your own, definitely the local input is worth it!
