Safari Style

There is nothing quite as exhilarating as observing wild Australian flora and fauna from an open-topped Land Cruiser, the sensation of wind in your hair – the scent of earth and eucalyptus both humbling and life affirming. Australian safaris evoke a great sense of adventure, the rough and ready freedom to explore the vast beauty of the Australian landscapes and the privilege and space to disconnect from the demands of daily life.

In the capable hands of knowledgeable field guides, 4WD tracks lead to exclusive and secret spots – areas inaccessible by regular vehicles. The exhilarating ride through unknown territory fully immerses you in awe-inspiring landscapes and the remoteness and privacy off the beaten track grants a true reconnection with nature.
