Roma
This fascinating tour of Roma and introduction to the region explains the past and present and sees it in the context of its natural attributes and ecology. A highlight is a picnic lunch at Mount Abundance where wildlife and soaring wedge-tailed eagles take refuge, and iconic bottle trees grow in their natural habitat. In the surrounding grasslands and woodlands we may spot emus, black-striped wallabies and grey kangaroos. We also visit Massey Downs Homestead gardens.

5.00We were with Aviation Tours doing a 7 day outback tour. Our last day was in Roma. We were fortunate enough to have Meryl as our driver and guide for the day. Her knowledge and passion for the area and Roma was exceptional and very genuine. She also provided us with morning tea and a 'Picnic in the Park' Roma style lunch. All the food was delicious. We had an awesome day. Thank you Meryl.
