The Outback in New South Wales has it all – stunning landscapes, ancient cultures, rural heritage, and natural wonders. You'll see deserts, wetlands, famous rivers, outback stations as big as a small nation, Aboriginal art sites and sacred places, relics of Australia’s pastoral heritage, amazing wildlife, some of the world’s richest gold, silver and opal mines and a plentiful supply of extraordinary people.
If you don’t have the time to take The Whole Swag, this shorter option is equally unforgettable. You'll see one of the oldest man-made structures in the world and the world's longest fence; stunning desert scenery and surprising outback wetlands; people coping with harsh isolation; the place where they filmed Mad Max and some of the most beautiful Aboriginal rock art sites in Australia.
Another fascinating outback tour, from Broken Hill to Sydney via Wentworth, Balranald, Hay, Narrandera, Cowra and Carcoar.
