Activity-filled days...
We try to make sure each day of your tour is packed with interesting activities.
Rest stops and lunch breaks are taken at places of interest, such as historical sites, Aboriginal art sites, museums, lookouts or at the start or finish of a short walk.
We use local guides, park rangers, property owners, cruise operators, visitor information centre staff and local characters to provide insights into the places we visit.
Each day has two or three main highlights, and often more: -
- mine tours and cave tours
At times you'll be given the opportunity to purchase an additional activity:-
You'll be given the time and the means to keep an electronic diary of your trip, and to keep in touch via internet with family, friends and social networking sites.
...and time to relax
In the evenings you'll have time to enjoy dinner and the company of your fellow-travellers.
you won't be expected to help with unpacking, cooking or cleaning, and there aren't any tents to pitch, so your own time to enjoy yourself is maximised.
Of course, if any of you happened to volunteer to help with small chores, we wouldn't be so impolite as to refuse, and we find it's often a great way to interact with your travel party! |
