See more, Learn more – Outback NSW with a difference
Welcome to an outback journey with a difference. Brought to you by the team that presents the Australian Frog & Reptile Show and Australian Wildlife Displays. In conjunction with Australia’s leading 4WD tag-along tour company, Great Divide Tours. This is a unique opportunity to discover unseen treasures of Australia’s outback.
From the convenience and security of your own 4WD, join a small and exclusive group as they tag along on a journey through the NSW outback. The tour will be led under the guidance of the professional team of tour guides from Great Divide Tours a company with more than 20 years of outback travel to its credit. But what makes this trip exclusive is you will be accompanied by some of Australia’s leading scientists and naturalists. Not just another tag along trip, but rather an educational experience the whole family will benefit from, hence the name See More, Learn More.
Participants on the 9 day tour will be joined by Dr Matthew McCloskey & Robert Banks. Dr McCloskey’s knowledge of mammals, reptiles, amphibians and insects will ensure no animal goes unidentified, and no question about them unanswered. Robert’s extensive background in geology will ensure all your questions about the unique & varied landscapes of Australia are answered, and being a photographer and musician will no doubt add to the learning experience.
