Reviews
it’s my first time exploring outback and it’s totally amazing! a rich experience that no one can have. lunch & morning tea are included, Mike/Michael was guiding us very well. he’s the best! we also fed the cute rock wallabies. i really recommend you guys to book this tour. hopefully they open another outback tour again to other town 😆
Interesting and eye-opening tour to the outback. The driver/guide was forthcoming in sharing nuggets of information, even as we drove past small towns. The caves were pretty cool, and the ranger provided insights into their formations. They also brought us to see cute wallabies at a gorge. Overall an enjoyable tour!
The car was more than ten minutes slow in the morning, which made me very nervous. If your English is good, this will be a great journey, because the tour guide and driver have been introducing carefully and non-stop, and you can learn many historical and geographical stories. Unfortunately, our English is not very good. Okay, I don’t quite understand it; it was a long journey and it took a long time to sit in the car; on the way back, the driver and tour guide did not take us back to the hotel door, but sent us to a nearby night market and let us walk back by ourselves. This made my husband very happy. Not satisfied.
It was a unique Cairns experience. We are safely picked up and dropped off by sir Andrew. He drove us to the outback and we had a pleasant snack,coffee and lunch. The cave was nice and seeing wullaby with joey in the pouch and peacocks are amazing. Thank you for the memorable experience :)
