The Outback Is Calling For You, Book Your Next Adventure Today!

An Alice Springs local, with over 30 years in the business

While his days of chasing lizards up trees and bouldering through riverbeds in a rusty old 4WD in a beat up Akubra with the windows down may be over, his adventurous spirit, and love for the Australian Outback are as strong as ever. Now his focus is to share these things with people who may enjoy the finer things in life, and to show that the Outback can be enjoyed in comfort and style. He may still chase a lizard up a tree if you ask him though…

Sustainability

We are an experienced operator who takes pride in providing ecologically sustainable touring options around the RedCentre in Central Australia.

At all times we aim to be minimally invasive by way of:

  • Staying on marked tracks and not making our own.
  • Avoiding ecologically and culturally sensitive sites such as clay pans, wetlands, sand dune country and areas of significance that are restricted access.
  • Using eco friendly products such as dishwashing liquid, and composting toilets where possible.
  • Recycling water bottles and no single use products.
  • Having access to biofuels and ensuring vehicles are maintained regularly to avoid overusing fuels and oils.
  • Minimal use of firewood sourced from dead trees only.
  • No intentional feeding of wildlife or interference.
  • A paperless office and booking system where possible.
  • We aim to leave only footprint sand take everything back to base with us for disposal or recycling.
  • Using solar panels to harness energy for lighting and charging of electrical goods along side a battery storage system.

We aim to have as small of an impact on the natural environment as possible.
