Trip Itineraries now available
If you are planning a big trip around Australia or up through the centre this might interest you.
I have a clockwise around Australia itinerary and an anticlockwise itinerary, each well over 200 days long. I also have an itinerary for a trip up the Red Centre all the way from Port Augusta to Darwin and of course my itineraries take you to all the must see locations as well as the little known 4wd locations.
Each itinerary details, how far you need to drive each day, which way to go, how long it will take, what there is to see, where to camp, what road conditions might be like, what map covers the area and then each day includes hyperlinks to the various locations I recommend such as National Parks, caravan parks and the local visitor centre. See, I've done all the work for you.
So now all you need to do is drop me an email requesting to purchase one or more of these itineraries and I simply email it to you. You can use it to plan your trip or just follow my recommendations for each day. The hyperlink to a multitude of additional websites expands the information available tenfold. Saves you doing the searching and, as the document is a word document, you can add to it as you wish and simply have it sitting on your ipad as you travel, almost like having Outback Vic sitting in the back seat guiding you, ok so that is not such a great idea!
The cost of these itineraries is $200 each for the trips around the mainland and $150 for the track notes up the middle of the Red Centre. You can order them through by dropping me an email at info@4wd.net.au or give Vic a call on 02 99131395
