Great Adventure Exceeds Expectations Just back from the Corner Country tour, which I did solo with some apprehension. However, the 22 people on Big Red Sand Dune (our bus) were great and we all got on well with lots of laughs on the way. Our tour leader was full of interesting information on the geography, geology, flora and fauna we saw and his offsider was helpful and couldn’t do enough to ensure the trip fulfilled our expectations. Accommodation and meals were fabulous and although we covered 4,200 km in 13 days, I never felt we were rushed. We stopped every couple of hours for a break and there was always something interesting to see. I’d recommend this tour to anyone with moderate fitness levels and am hoping to do another one with them next year.

Fantastic Experience We just completed the Corner Country Explorer tour and could not fault it. Everything was great from the booking experience to the post tour experience. The places visited and the talks by locals were excellent. The coach driver Darren and his wife and tour director Rachel were great and so much fun. All the meals and morning teas were included and a very good standard. Unfortunately we both contracted covid on the 2nd last day so could not experience the excursions on the last day however EVERYONE at Aussie Outback Tours did not hesitate to assist us from finding extended accommodation to picking up and delivering meals everyday and grocery items to our motel room. Also a very timely refund of our booked rail journey back to Brisbane. We cannot recommend this company enough. Worth every dollar it cost. Thanks Aussie Outback Tours

The tour could not have been better – it was excellent. The driver/host Andrew and hostess Paula were absolutely marvellous in their handling any/all matters that may have arisen during the trip not that there were many. The itinerary was followed, areas of interest explained, birds identified etc. Accommodation was superior in most towns as were the meals (in most cases, too much).   Communication was limited past Charleville Queensland but we always had tele and email at night time locations. The things we saw including Cameron Corner, Burke & Wills digging tree and burial sites were all heart-warming. Outback people were so very friendly and the fellow pax on the tour all gelled extremely well. We lost 3 tour members at Tibooburra due to illness but otherwise health was not of a concern. Opera in the outback at Winton was an enormous success for the locals and us I guess and the Governor and her minders were there also. Then the last area of Longreach was also most enjoyable even though we have been there a few times before.   My wife was able to enjoy all of the tour and off vehicle events notwithstanding that her second knee replacement was only done in Feb 23. If she needed any assistance, the team were already there to assist. Their expertise was beyond question.

Dear Mr and Mrs Smith. I really have to address this to you as i feel the questionnaire that we completed at the end of our trip to the Corner Country on the 3rd July 2023 is not enough to express my gratitude to Andrew and Paula, (we called mum and dad). What an asset to your company these two wonderful people. We learnt so much from their commentary along the way through the outback plus  the trust i had in their company. I did not feel concerned in any way during the 13 days in the outback. I really can not express enough, my appreciation  to Andrew and Paula. Also to the team behind our organised holiday to the Corner. My first trip and hopefully not my last. Many Thanks and Best Wishes Heather M, NSW

Corner Country Explorer If you want to help the people of the outback, plus see some of the towns in the middle of nowhere but you don't want to drive, I can really recommend travelling with Outback Aussie Tours. We couldn't fault anything, the guides were helpful with lots of local knowledge and they didn't exhaust you by talking too much. The accommodation was terrific, clean and quiet. The food was excellent and the people in the remote country towns were so grateful for our visit. They said we helped sustain seven people by staying at their motels. It was one of the best holidays I've ever been on and I had no idea how much I didn't know about our country. It was also very sad to see and speak to the property owners because of the hardships they face, especially the drought affected properties. The guided tours of towns were very informative, thank you so much to Outback Aussie Tours.
