Does the company offer unique
outback experiences?
Preferably any company you select should travel all over Outback Queensland
including Carnarvon Gorge, Charleville, Longreach and Winton, not to mention
the Capricorn and Coral Coast regions.
From cattle stations to natural wonders, pioneering
Australians to Indigenous Cultures, the ideal company
will have something for everyone.

Is all camping equipment included?
When booking your outback experience you don’t need to worry about
packing camping equipment, your company should handle that for you.
Ask if their coaches are ideal for safari touring and built to
withstand tough outback road conditions. Make sure to check
that their coaches are equipped with all camping gear and if
you’re lucky, they’ll include a catering package.
Thank you - our trip was as good as it gets. The drivers, cook,
admin; EVERYTHING. A memorable trip was had by all.

Do they encourage more teachers
to attend?
In order to keep the student/teacher ratio as low as possible, most great
companies should offer a special that encourages teacher attendance.
