Great tour

Published on Oct, 2024

Best way to see the main attractions. Plenty of time to spend at each with superb guides to give information.

Interesting & Well organised - but too brief - tour around the places that made & still make Alice Springs special

Published on Aug, 2024

Spent the morning at Desert Park (option) and then an enjoyable afternoon with guide Martin. So well organised and interesting content at all our stops, but barely enough time to take it all in even with only a small group. Reptile Park talk was a real treat - debunking much of our knowledge about saltwater crocs and venomous snakes.

Informative and wonderful

Published on Aug, 2024

School of the air tour was fantastic. Our Tour guide was great and the locations we visited were beautiful.

Excellent insight to Alice Springs

Published on Mar, 2024

The driver/tour guide Phil, was excellent, lots of interesting information and very considerate. The locations on the tour were varied and fascinating. We particularly enjoyed the AS school of the air and Rex was very amusing and informative at the Reptile Centre.

Recommended for anybody visiting Alice Springs.

Published on Nov, 2023

Every part of the trip was extremely interesting, from the visit to the war memorial to the telegraph station, outback education system, Royal Flying Doctor Service and the very important points from the Reptile Centre on snakes..
