We recently took your 2.5 Day MacDonnell Ranges Tour, and we would like to thank you for making this the highlight of our trip.  Our guides, Shauna and Chris, made everyone feel welcome, comfortable, and a part of a team.  The accommodations, meals, knowledge gained, and the experience of camping out in the outback were outstanding!  We will highly recommend Wayoutback Tours to our friends and relatives!
 
Sincerely,
Bill and Karen Warther

Just to say a huge thank you to you all at Wayoutback, and especially our guide Chris, for a truly memorable trip back in April. The trip was very well organised, the truck comfortable and the whole experience was excellent value for money. It enabled us to get up close to the outback.

Living outdoors as we did, collecting the wood for the fires from the outback, cooking over the camp fire and sleeping under the stars around the camp fire, was all fantastic. Chris was an expert guide and organised everything superbly well. As well as the amazing red rocks and the walks that we took around them, one of the experiences I will never forget was being woken up at 4.30am one morning by Chris playing Johnny Cash's 'Don't take your guns to town son' on the truck radio. I have never liked Johnny Cash but rushed out to buy the CD on my return to the UK as it was such an evocative experience. Everytime I hear that track (and I play it a lot) it takes me back to waking in my swag in the outback on one of the best trips of my life.

Hi

We too were on the 3 day swag tour from the 28th-30th June with Belinda and it was a great experience with a great group of people.

Belinda was a wonderful group leader, her cheerfulness and positive approach was especially helpful and supportive to us grey nomads; cooking up excellent meals on the fire, and producing the best damper bread tasted.

She certainly added to our outdoor experience and enjoyment of this wonderful part of Australia and we will certainly be recommending wayoutback tours to all over here in the UK.

Thanks for everything.
Best Wishes

Hi

My Daughter and I were on a 5 day tour starting 29th June with our guide Seona. We found the tour to be really informative and adventurous and the landscapes and scenery breathtaking. Seona did a fabulous job, negotiating tough terrain and keeping us all informed and on track. For my daughter it was the first time in central Australia and she had the time of her life. For me I had only done the typical tourist route so to get off track and into isolated areas was the highlight along with the time spent with Craig on his land.

Congratulations on the great tours you run. You have a fantastic asset and gem there in Seona.

Kind Regards
Louise

Hi,

We recently enjoyed a 3 day swag tour on the 28th-30th June with Belinda.
Fantastic time was had by all. The trip, the scenery, the food, the company and the guide were all marvellous. I can't sing Belinda's praises too highly - she is a joyous and truly wonderful human being. Engaging and giving - it would not have been the same without her.

You have two very happy customers who are out there spruiking your business.

Keep it up.

Peter and Felicity

I recently went on the  3 Day Uluru - Red Centre 4WD Safari with Belinda. 18-20 June. Having not passed in a Survey form (misplaced) I thought I would email you instead.
 
Belinda did a simply marvellous job resulting in a very enjoyable trip, despite a mechanical issue with “Stinger” delaying the trip.

Belinda worked tirelessly, always smiling, very responsible, well organised, caring and just a lovely person, not to mention a great campfire cook.
 
I have been on many trips, I rate Di and Belinda amongst the best leaders I have encountered, and together they would be by far the best tour leaders/guides I have encountered.

Hi Folks,

A big thankyou to your business and to Annabelle for a experience that words do not give justice to. Both Mardi and I were humbled by Annabelles knowledge of the environment. Craig's generosity and sharing of his culture was an experience that will stay with both of us for ever.

Once again thankyou for everything and we would be more than happy to refer you to other travellers.

Regards David Orr.

Hi there,

it's been more than a month now since I went on one of your 5-day-tours to the Red Center and all I wanna do is come back!!! I had the best time ever and the trip was more than I ever expected from it; I almost feel lucky that my trip from Adelaide to Alice got canceled so I had to look for other alternatives and found you.

I miss the blue-blue sky (can't stop talking about it to my family and friends), the rock formations and landscape in general, I miss my swag sooo much, sleeping under the milky way and looking up to the Southern Cross, the fantastic (and exhausting) walks we did, the adventures and Chief Tony's amazing cooking skills (No idea how you can make such great food in just two pots in a fire...)! Oh, and thanks for carrying our cookies and muesli bars all the time! 



We all enjoyed the tour very much and I think none of our group wanted it to end. 



So all I can do now is look at my photos and wait for another well-paid job to come back - you don't have any positions available at the moment by any chance? ;-)



Please continue your great work, we'll definitely see each other again!

Cheers and THANKS,

Hi there!

How’s life downunder?

I joined an unforgettable 3 day Uluru tour with Wayoutback last December. We really had a great time all together. It was probably the most impressing tour I’ve ever done in my life. Specially the experience to sleep under the stars in a swag was great. Although we never knew what kind of animal will be visiting us during the night :-)  I’ve never seen such a clear sky before! Just fantastic. You won’t see it in Europe that way.

But that’s not the only reason I’m writing you. I just wanted to ask if it is possible to buy two of your original used swags and, if so, how much they would cost including the shipping to Europe (Switzerland). They are thought as a present for a very special person I met in Australia just once and only for a short moment and found her again in Switzerland – almost by accident … ;-)

Last but not least: Say hello to our tour guide from that time, Shane Craswell.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

All the best from Switzerland 
Patrick

I wanted to send in a personal note to say what an incredible experience I had on the five day trip two weeks ago.  It was hands down one of the best times of my life.  I usually stay away from tour companies.  However in these small groups you are able to form a bond with people.  It creates an intimacy of a friend taking you to their favorite spots.  You could truly enjoy your surroundings instead of fighting hoards for a space on the trail.  This, you stated is what you strive for and you definitely deliver!  In this day and age of fast pace and big business, it was a breath of fresh air to tour with you.  I have truly had the experience of a lifetime and I thank you for your wonderful vision. 

I think it also has to be said that Josh is a fantastic guide.  His enthusiasm for his job is off the charts and you can't help but be drawn into it.  Even when our vehicle died on the first night, I never once had a worry.  He quickly and confidently executed a plan and we were on our way.  For me it just added that much more excitement to the whole trip.  Everything could have all gone wrong and I would still think it was an awesome time because Josh is so capable and positive in the face of adversity.  Some may say that's being naive, but I feel it's a true testament to how great he is at what he does. 



Sincerely,

Kari Erlmann

Hallo Wayoutback,



Wanted to thank your team for a wonderful holiday.  Having returned home to Geelong last night I find the vivid colours, changing landscapes and incredible rock formations of Central Australia continue to dazzle my minds eye.   The privileged experience of time spent with Craig from Oak Valley Community lingers and haunts me.  His ability to share with such understanding insights into his world and that of his people with humour and truth across so many cultures is profound.  He has begun a dialogue in my mind of many questions and reflections.... I wish I was closer to continue the conversation.....  



For me, the experience of the ancient landscape and the varied histories enfolded within have left their marks.  I am left with a strong desire to return to this area.



Thank you to Wayoutback for providing the opportunity to access this part of the world with so much cheerful charm, local knowledge and professionalism.

Particular thanks to Tony and Seona ( our guides ) and Leah at base who assisted so creatively when our plans became tangled.



(I know this is the same for my daughter Maddie and son Jack.) 



Best wishes to all.

Vonnie Steel.

Hi,
 
I went on the 3 day tour (Uluru, Olgas and Kings Canyon) a few weeks ago and I just want to say that out of my entire 3 week trip they were the best 3 days – it was absolutely awesome. Our tour guide was Josh and he definitely made my parents first trip to Oz very enjoyable, they still cannot stop talking about Kings Canyon.
 
We had a small group (6 people), and even though we were all of different ages and background we all got on really well and the atmosphere amongst the group was very relaxed and everyone got involved. All credit to Josh for making it such an awesome trip, despite the weather.
 
Josh wanted some of the photos we took of Uluru whilst walking around the perimeter – is there a contact e-mail for him so I can send him some pics, once I’ve sorted through them all?
 
Thanks again. I will definitely be recommending Wayoutback to my mates!
 
Dawn

Hey,

I just want to say thank you so much for the five day trip with your company. I really enjoyed the whole time. My tour guides were Adam and Brad and the guys are absolut awesome. We(my group and I)had much fun with them. The whole trip was just awesome. I hadn't exspect that is would be so cool.

Adam and Brad teach us so much about the plans and the landscape told us all they know about the Kata Tjuta and the Uluru and the Kings Canyon etc. Who knew that Uluru and the Kata Tjuta are connected. It was just amazing. The Oak Valley Aboriginal Community was great. I know now a lot more about the Aborigines Culutur than before. Craig told us so much about his family and his traditions about his culture and was not shy to answer our questions. After duing the walk with Craig we were eating a kangaroo tail was amazing. Who would think that kangaroo tast so good. But that is not the only thing I loved about this trip. Sleeping in a swag under the stars is soo good it felt like being home, sitting around the campfire talking about every topic we could thought of telling new friends your storys, becoming good friends for live time. The meals were just awesime Adam is a fantastic cook.(I miss Adams meals) I miss also playing with Brad and Adam and the others Rugby. Even I suck at it, but at least we had fun. The one of the best parts were teasing Brad and get teased back *smile* like you mate. I felt the whole time like we are a kind of family. We could talk to them about everything. Adam and Brad are a dream team, really. I really miss the guys.

Please say hello to them. I will come back as soon as possible.

Yours Tini

Hi Stephanie,

I just wanted to drop a quick note to thank you guys for such a great trip. Lauren, Andrea and I just finished the 3 day outback tour with Tony.  It was everything we wanted and more.  We were very scared about sleeping in swags and worried about snakes etc but were very confident when we met Tony that we would be safe.  The whole tour was very adventurous and informative and Tony was a typical outback kind of guy who was very keen to adapt to whatever we wanted to do and our needs.

I do have to write however as I know there were 3 people on the trip that were not happy and they told us that they were going to put in a complaint that Tony was "no tour guide".  They totally ruined the atmosphere of the trip and did not stop complaining and insinuating things were being done for the wrong reason.  They are even going to complain to the Australian Motor Vehicle government body responsible for vehicles on the road as they felt the vehicle we were in was unsafe and illegal.  I did try to explain  to them that they were incorrect but had to give up after a while and we just decided they were not worth speaking to as they were always right on every issue.  The man even grabbed the steering wheel when Tony was driving as he was not happy with his driving ability.  I think these three people (Sally, Win & Emma) would complain about any tour they went on that they could not completely have control of.  (they did keep talking about how well travelled they were).  I think it was their way or no way.  I could go on and on about the grief they caused us and Tony but there is no point.

I basically wanted you to know that we had a great time, Tony was a fantastic guide and we are thinking about doing it again and this time booking it with only our friends/family to come along with us.  We think that would be fantastic. We would certainly use Wayoutback tours again and if Tony hasn't given up after the stress from those people would want him to be our guide.

Cheers and thanks from
Sandra, Lauren & Andrea

Hi Don

Thank you SO MUCH for organising the famil for Caroline Mortier. She got back last night absolutely glowing, buzzing with happiness. She loved the trip. Kept raving all evening about how much better it was doing Wayoutback than any other tour because they could sleep under the stars, get away from the other tourists. And she was disappointed that she wasnt continuing on to do the 5 day trip because clearly that was the way to go. So well done to you - and congratulations to your staff for putting on a good one ! And again, thank you for your help.

The new product manager for Oz at Australie Autrement is the utterly fabulous Celine Moreno (I have to say that - I've cc'd her into this email) so if you want to discuss what possibilities there are for Wayoutback, you should chat to her. I believe Celine will be at ATE but then so will everyone.

You and your girls should come around again soon. Doesnt Jaz want to feed the kangaroos again ??

Warmest wishes

Dear Wayoutback team, In December I was on the 5-day Uluru-Red Centre Tour guided by Paul. I cannot express well enough my great apreciation of what you do and how you do it!!! I absolutely loved every minute of the tour and especially our professional guide Paul. He loves what he does and he is good at it!! The Oak valley part of the tour was certainly one of the highlights of it!!! And Craig is wonderfull in passing the massages we could easily pass by ..He is to me a bridge between the two cultures and that role of his gives hope for the future of a troubled relatioship... Thank you for a wonderful experience Paul and the whole Wayoutbeak team!

Dear Don,

I wish to thank you for providing the opportunity for myself to go on a Territory Discoveries FAMIL accompanying your 5 Day Wayoutback tour, on the 15th September. Our guide was Paul; he is truly an asset to your company. He was, at all times, highly professional, engaging and informative. It’s fantastic to see someone so passionate about their job being able to pass their knowledge onto others.

The tour itself was an amazing experience. The Oak Valley component certainly gives you a competitive edge over many of the other tour companies. Craig, as operator of Oak Valley Homestead, gave one of the most insightful viewpoints of the merging of Indigenous and European cultures that I have ever heard. The intimacy of your group tours is also a highlight, as it allows for great bonding. Whilst the use of swags limits your market somewhat to those with a camping mind-set, this experience also adds authenticity to the whole journey. For some people on our tour, their biggest highlight was being able to sleep under a star-lit sky on a nightly basis.

As far as meeting dietary requirements, this was also handled exceptionally well, with little hardship met to cater for those who were lactose intolerant or vegetarian.

Once again, sincere thanks for the opportunity to experience your tour. Clients appreciate the fact that we, as sales consultants, have participated ourselves, as it means we know the answers to specific questions, and are better able to sell your product!

A rave and review about your tour will also be featuring on our Territory Discoveries website in approximately a week, if you would also like to view it. The address is www.territorydiscoveries.com

Just wanted to drop you a line to say how much I enjoyed my three-day trip into the outback with Wayoutback in December 14-16, and in particular our guide for the trip. The highlight of my trip to Australia. Just looking through my images and amazed at what we packed in in three days, without ever feeling being rushed. Our guide, Steve, was most informative of the geology and in particular the indigenous people and their culture. Memories I'll carry with me for ever - thanks again for a wonderful time and I've already recommended your company to everyone who'll listen to me.

All the best to the whole team - Jim Davidson

To the Manager,

Dear Sir/Madam ,

my wife and i have just returned from a 5 week trip to Australia.We visited the Daintree Rain Forest and saw crocodiles ,we snorkeled at the Great Barrier Reef and walked in the Blue Mountains as well as taking a tour around the Sydney Opera House . All of these experiences were wonderful but the high spot of the trip was undoubtedly our 5 day trip with Wayout Back.

Every aspect was well dealt with from the first time we were booking on line and had the friendliest of email correspondence with Esther,backed up by a telephone call with another of your female staff who's name we have forgotten but who was immensely reassuring and encouraging when we rather anxiously were checking out various issues the day before we left.

The whole trip was designed very thoughtfully allowing everyone to gradually get used to the increasing challenges we experienced as the trip progressed;

as for Steve he was quite simply the tops.His specific and general knowledge about a range of subjects from the history of the area,to the fauna and flora ,the culture of the Aboriginal communities,cooking and just about everything else we asked him was extremely impressive.The range of ages and personalities on our trip were managed skilfully and he achieved that difficult balance between setting rules which were needed for reasons of safety and allowing people to more or less have the freedom to do their own thing.

We definitely had the experience of a lifetime and remembering looking at the stars when lieing in our swags ,or cooking over the campfire or walking in Kings canyon or seeing Uluru at dusk all have helped to keep the memories alive.

thank you from us both to all the people responsible for making the trip such a memorable one

best wishes to all for a Happy Christmas and New Year

We have just returned to the UK after a 10 week trip to OZ, New Zealand and other far flung places. We just wanted to expand on the rather hurried feedback form we filled in for you. (I hate filling in forms). Our 5 day safari with Steve as guide was a really fantastic experience. The scenery was unreal, camping under the stars with no light pollution was magic. It was so good to be camping away from other groups. We learnt so much about the area, history, geology, flora, ecology and the culture from Steve and from Craig. Steve did an amazing job of keeping a largish group on track, driving for hours, leading walks, organising camps and meals and answering unending questions. His stamina was extraordinary. We will certainly recommend Wayoutback to anyone we meet who is planning to go to Uluru.

Dear Wayoutback tours

We just returned from a 3 day tour with tour guide 'steve' on the 6/11/09. My uncle phil had booked us on a "suprise trip", he lives and works in alice and thought Me my mother and my sister would love the experience. Just wanted to let you know we had an absolute ball, steve was a fantastic guide and very knowledgeable. He made our experience wonderful and his sense of humour was refreshing.... i couldnt stop bragging to everyone back home on the gold coast. I have promised my 14yr old daughter a trip with you guys when she is another year older, and hopefully steve will still be around to guide us? Please pass on our thanks and gratitude to steve for making it such a memorable time for us all!!! Absolutely loved it .

Dear Wayoutback,

Shona, Norman and I did the five day tour last week, and wanted to write to say much we enjoyed every minute of it.

From the initial phone calls to departure time, Esther was very helpful, and managed to squeeze us in when at first there appeared to be no availability - thanks Esther!

Our tour guide Tom was excellent, handling difficult situations very calmly and professionally (both with difficult group members, rain, punctures, and with other problems we encountered in the five days). His handling of the camp logistics, driving, and interaction with most of the group was excellent. On learning his young age on return to Alice, we were amazed that he had carried the group for the whole duration, and helped make our trip so memorable. With a few small adjustments to his approach per feedback forms (with regard to non English speaking customers, and morning itinerary discussions) he will become a truly excellent guide.

The camping, swags, campfires, campsites, food, and vehicle were all first class. The scenery amongst the best I have seen in the world. The values described on the website were evident throughout.

Being back at work feels an entirely alien experience now, I wish we could have stayed 'wayoutback' for much longer!

Thanks again,

Peter Farley, Shona Dunlop and Norman MacDonald

The Red Centre safari with Wayoutback was awesome - we really enjoyed it very very very much and it will stay in our minds for a looooooooong period of time!
We took loads of pictures and notes to be able to show and tell our customers about it - and hopefully send you heaps of guests!

Brad was such a fantastic guide, so responsible, enthusiastic, helpful, always in great mood and a good laugh - just loved the time spent together!

Hi,

I went on one of your 3-day tours a week or so ago, and just wanted to let you know that I had a brilliant time, and the whole experience was one of the best I have had in Australia, if not the best! (And I have been on a LOT of tours!) Our Tour guide (Steve) was fantastic, and knew so much about the area. And the second campsite at King's Creek was just amazing!

Hi,

We recently went with you on a trip to Uluru, 1-3 Aug, with Brad.

We have now returned to the UK after a great trip to Australia.

We wanted to e-mail you to say thanks to you guys for such a fantastic trip to Uluru. It truely is a wonderful place. Especially thanks to Brad who made the whole trip great fun as well as really interesting. His knowledge of everything from local cultures to the area and plantlife was excellent and matched by the way he passed that knowledge on. He made sure our kids were involved with the group and kept them interested and informed about a completely different way of life to that which they are used to - which was one of the reasons we wanted to visit Australia. I know there will also be a backroom staff who organise everything for him and ensure the logistics is sorted, so thanks to those guys too.

We shall be telling all our friends and family all about you guys and what a great time we had! We hope we'll see you again at some time in the future!

With Best Wishes,

Hi have just returned from a 5 day outback tour and what a brill time I had. Paul was great with all his local knowledge and he had a great sense of humour, his cooking was pretty good too. The scenery was breathtaking there was so much to see. It was too difficult to pick a favourite. Although not a lover of camping it was well worth the experience and I am now considering more camping trips. My husband Garth and daughter Sam also share these views and said what a brill time they had it was a trip of a lifetime.

Thank you

I have a question regarding the tour paintings shown on the website - I'm very much hoping that it's possible to purchuse a copy of the 3 day tour painting? I took your tour back in 2003 an it was one of the most amazing experiences in my life and I've been missing something other than photoes to remember it by, something that really does it justice as well - a then I saw this incredible painting, and I can't imagine anything better!

Hello All

Just back from your 5 day Wayoutback Tour. What an amazing experience, who would want to travel overseas when we have such amazing scenery on our own shores. Thank you Paul for being such a great driver, guide, singer and for looking after us “old girls” so well. Our game of “pick up sticks” each afternoon for the camp fire was so much fun. It bought back childhood memories when we light the “donkey” for your hot water, it was great to sleep under the stars in our swags and get up to the “billy” boiling on the camp fire. Our trip to Oak Valley community was so enlightening Craig had so much knowledge and information to pass on to us it’s such a pity we couldn’t have stayed longer. I would recommend the trip to anyone who wants to experience our outback. Well done Wayoutback and once again thank you so much Paul for the wonderful experience we had, you made the trip work so well.

Delivered to Wayoutback Desert Safaris Via the totaltravel.com.au website

Franz and I recently completed a 5 day safari with Wayoutback. We would like to express our deepest thanks to all of you for a really wonderful experience. We found you on line and when we booked we hoped so much that the trip would meet our expectations - small group, professional, informative and as much as possible off the beaten track away from the tourist centres. Wayoutback went far beyond these expectations and delivered a really incredible adventure. But our biggest thanks has got to go to our superb guide Steve, he was just the best right from the word go. Amazingly informed, interesting, a great sense of humour, utterly professional and who worked so very hard to make sure that we were not only safe at all times but that our bush experience was the best that it could be. Thank you Steve thank you Wayoutback. We plan a trip to Darwin and Kakadu national Park and we wish you had an operation there we would be booking now and we would request Steve as our guide.

Take care and all the best
Franz and Mary Sturmeir

Hi Folks,

My husband and I returned two weeks ago from a 3-week trip to Australia. We had many amazing experiences in diverse parts of your lovely country, but our favorite part of the trip (and we both agree) was the Wayoutback 3-day Uluru tour. Steve, our guide, was really the best part of the trip - but that is saying a lot, because we fell in love with lying in a swag and looking up at the millions of stars in the Southern Hemisphere, participating in campfire cooking and even firewood gathering. I was a novice camper, but Steve made it easy to feel comfortable and part of the group. His people skills were surpassed only by his knowledge of the ecology of the territory. (And his cooking wasn't bad either!) I felt a little more connected to the Outback after learning about Aboriginal life and traditions, ancient geological history and numerous details about the plants, animals and critters, some indigenous, and some imported. Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon would have been beautiful on their own, but visiting them with this Wayoutback tour was the experience of a lifetime! I recommend this to young and not-quite-so-young (like me), to veteran backpackers and adventurous novices with a desire to see and to learn. Awesome!

Hi Guys

Hope you are all still working hard and having a great time.

We would like to thank Wayoutback and our uberguide Paul for a fantastic time over Easter.  He was encouraging without being pushy and very supportive in our walking (we didn't always keep up).

I have attached a couple of photos, Anna did a handstand at Kings Canyon, which you may like to put on your website or whatever.  Also a nice shot of Paul.

Thanks again guys and we are sorry we couldn't do the 5 day trip, would have been fantastic and we could or should I say should have spent more time in Alice.  Never mind, we have left a few things to come back for next time.

Thanks again,

Laima and Bruce Gascoigne

Dear Wayoutback,

My partner Carl and I recently completed the 5 day 4 Wheel drive tour which started for us at Uluru and finished at Alice Springs. We wanted to say a big thanks for an excellent experience.

Initially we were a little daunted by the prospect of traveling with 14 other people as we are keener on small groups. However we were pleasantly surprised by the amazing sites we visited and the surprisingly comfortable swags and campsites with flushing toilets! 

The initial reticence of being in a larger group and feeling somewhat 'touristy' was certainly made up for in the last 3 days once the group had downsized to 7. We really felt that we got off the beaten track and truly had an outback experience especially at Oak Valley (our personal favourite) and beside the River Finke. A note of huge gratitude to Craig at Oak Valley for sharing some of his amazing culture with us, an experience everyone should have. 

We'd also like to specifically note that our tour guide Paul was excellent in all ways. Not only did he manage the larger group well (a feat for anyone!), he did so with enthusiasm and humour and backed this up with great local knowledge and rather good cooking skills! It was a huge bonus being shown around by someone who truly loves his job, please say a personal thanks from us.

Carl and I have already recommended your tours to a few friends as we hope that this experience will stay with them as long as we know it will with us.

Kind Regards,

Angela Wheeler & Carl Stanfield
Lane Cove, Sydney

Hello 

We have recently returned from Alice Springs and a 3 day safari with Wayoutback. We had a fantastic time and wanted to let you know that the tour met all our expectations and more. 

The actual tour, the hikes and the sites were amazing and we loved the experience of sleeping under the stars in swags.  The food was amazing too...thanks to the excellent skills of our guide Pete. 

Speaking of Pete we also wanted to say that we were all VERY impressed with our tour guide, driver, chef and all round 'great guy'.  He really made the trip for us and really looked after us all.   Nothing was ever a problem and he never stopped working until we were all tucked up in our swags. His knowledge of the areas we visited was great and he was always willing for a chat and to answer our many questions.  He really is an asset to your fantastic tours.  We can not speak highly enough of his professionalism and the manner in which he guided the tour....Thank you!! 

In the decision making and research for what tour to do we were also very impressed with the Wayoutback staff we dealt with via emails and over the phone.  Your tours are certainly not the cheapest and price was not the only factor for us.  You delivered what you said you would and we want to say "Thank you" to you all for the amazing outback tour we experienced with Wayoutback. 

Thanks for a great job well done and keep up the great work. 

With best wishes 

Fiona & Steven Barnaby

Hi Wayoutback!

My boyfriend Rory and I went on one of the 5-day tours starting Tuesday of last week and I just wanted to send an email to let you know what an amazing trip it was.

Our tour guide Adam was simply outstanding and made the tour a trip to remember. It was all the little unplanned things that made it such an experience (lasooing an escaped camel on a dirt track, digging the truck out after getting bogged in the sand, a few blown tyres etc!). Everyone on the trip thought Adam was amazing -he was even happy to answer all the personal questions the kids posed including was his mother upset that he has dreadlocks!

It was my first camping experience (yes we jumped in the deep end!) but we are already looking at similar 4WD tours in the Kimberleys and in Cape York for next year.

I am back at work this morning - utterly depressed! I am missing all the new friends we met on our trip as well as Adam's Reggae music! Many of us are going to stay in touch after the trip and we all agreed that we would be recommending Wayoutback to everyone we know.

Thank you so much again for such a wonderful experience.

Hi Karen, Nice to hear from you. You want to know how the tour went: it was simply fantastic and really a pity that the 5 day tour wasn't available on both dates. Everything was very well organised - we haven't been pushed as it is always the case with other tours - everything was clean everywhere.

Vicky was our tour guide - she was first class. Her explanations were great and also how she handled the different people and nationalities was amazing.

Remarkable with Wayoutback was the first campground behind the cattle station in the nowhere and there were still shower and toilet - I was not prepared to that - expected a showel as I have already experienced with other tours.

Especially good was the small group - we were 14 people but I think this also should be the maximum for such a tour.

The tour in Darwin: I want to do what you suggested to me - I trust you implicitly.

'I just would like to say thank you again for this amazing 5-day tour! I stayed 13 weeks in Australia and visited some spots but the Outback and your tour were the best of my stay! ...

Cheers, Oliver and the other "4 crazy Germans"!'

'I just got home from the 3 Day Uluru Tour with Lindsey as our guide and I just have to say what a great time I had. The small group (only 7) was great and we've had so much fun. And being in a 4WD enhanced the whole experience of the outback extremely! I have made so many new experiences in only 3 days that I will never forget! Sleeping under the brilliant stars, having a bush shower and going for a ride on a quad - what an awesome trip! In the end-of-tour-questionaire I really didn't give Lindsey enough credit. His knowledge about the area's history and geology were just amazing. He's very passionate about the Aboriginal culture and that helped us understand these people better! He took very good care of us and we couldn't have wished for a better person to bring us closer to the Red Centre. To all you guys at Wayoutback: don't change anything and keep going. Thanks for the best trip of my life (so far at least)! I will definitely be back.'

---

'I just wanted to thank you all very much for a totally awesome trip that we just finished. My best friend Sam and I came on a 3 day safari with Todd as our guide. Not quite knowing what to expect we were both really pleased we didn't encounter too many snakes or spiders ... just flies, more flies, heat and more heat!! Todd was a great guide, which really made the difference to our trip - we were just sorry we buggered off with the ipods and didn't stay for the extra 2 nights. Sydney seems huge in comparison, and being back at work sucks. But one consolation is that the surf is definitely up, the waves here are awesome at the moment.

Thanks again for everything ... Tash & Sam.'

'Hi Phil I had an amazing time on one of your tours. Mind you I thought I would die on the charge up the Olgas one afternoon. I think they must have slowed down after that, Carolyn was amazing. Not many people could be tour adviser, cook, driver, naturalist, aboriginal adviser all at once. Thanks for a great tour, I'm recommending it to everyone.

Regards Nella.'

---

'I took the 3 Day Safari with Lindsey 13-15 March. Fantastic stuff! Thank you for taking such good care of the group, and for employing a guide with skill, humor, and generosity. He's fun, professional, and has strong sensibility and respect for the environment, Aboriginals, wildlife, and guests. This was the first organized tour I've ever done, and it was a screaming success.

Thanks again! Sincerely, Bob (Seattle, USA).'

'My name is Jo Jo and I recently went on two of your Wayoutback Desert Safaris, the 2 day tour of West MacDonnell Ranges and the 3 Day tour of Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon. I just wanted to say thank you for the fantastic experience, as it was my first time in Central Australia, the Outback and Wayoutback Desert Safari made it a very genuinely memorable experience. I cannot imagine seeing this region of Australia in any other way than the Wayoutback Desert Safari, 4WD tours. Please pass on my thanks to our two tour guides, Disco Dave and Jason. Their sound knowledge, of the area, geology, history and Aboriginal Culture made a real difference to our tours, for me this has been a holiday and a learning experience. Most importantly your tours took us away from the majority of ‘terrorists’ that swamp some of these attractions. I have recommended your company to everyone interested in visiting the Central Australia, especially to many Australians who have never been.'

---

'My three days with wayoutback (from Dec 3, with Matt as our guide) was the best travel experience of my life among all other places, camps, or tours. Unlike other tours, every moment of activity, including the 4WD drive, the view and texture of air from the windows, talking and getting to know each other, Matt's 'kawaii' character, the music, preparing and having meals, the view of/from the camp sites, sitting around the campfire, sleeping under the stars in swags in addition to visiting the most known tourist places was all just fascinating. We also had pleasant encounterings with wild camels, small lizards, and a small sand spout(tornado?) at the Ernest Giles Road, which was one of my favorite part of the tour. I had never seen such red land continuing as long as I can see to the horizon where it meets the blue sky, and running the unsealed red road making a cloud of dust with no other cars or artifacts in sight was really fun and amazing. I still keep imagining the images, texture of air, all that I have felt with all my senses, not wanting to forget a piece. I really appreciated the tour and felt very lucky to be able to be a part of the trip. So, just to let you know ... Thank you so much. I would love to visit again some day.'

---

'... We thank those at Wayoutback Desert Safaris, in particular, our tour guide Jason, for the fantastic experience of Central Australia that the three of us had. Now back in wintery and dull Victoria, we can indeed appreciate the wonderful colours and amazing culture that we experienced on our three-day tour. We certainly had a memorable holiday and it was due in no small part to Jason's enthusiasm, knowledge, and sensitivity to the needs of all participants on our tour. We would certainly recommend Wayoutback Desert Safaris and hope, at some future date, to join one of your five day tours - particularly if Jason was the tour guide!

With best wishes, Colleen, Lauren and Joel.'

'I was just researching a possible (if improbable) return trip to Australia and was pleased to find you now have a site up and running. You've probably already got plenty of recommendations but I thought I'd add one more. My brother and I went on one of your tours in May '98 (your 21st I think) and it is still one of our abiding memories from our year in Australia. In fact in a year when I did many amazing things this was the best, along with diving on the Great Barrier Reef. Even being woken at an ungodly hour to watch the sunrise hitting Uluru was a magical moment. Special thanks to the boss/driver (Kiwi with a beard, sorry can't remember your name) whose knowledge, observation and excellence at finding campsites made this an extra special tour and even left me feeling sorry for the NTAT hordes. I'd thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone.'

---

'I have continued to bask in the wonder of the great adventure we enjoyed with you over the past week. I am sure it will be a highlight and long lasting memory of our time in Australia. Thank you for a great experience.'

'Kirsten from the SMH called to thank us all for helping her organise such a wonderful trip. In her words she said it was really 'refreshing' and the 'small group was awesome to travel with'. The guide was really knowledgeable and the itinerary was great. She's been telling everybody she knows about the trip and about YHA.'

'You asked us let you know how the 5-day Wayoutback tour was - well it was probably the best tour we've done in 6 months of travelling, narrowly ahead of the Wilderness 4WD Adventures trip, which was also great. The Wayoutback trip really was an outback bush experience and the off road driving was both good fun and good for camel and roo etc spotting.'

'It was the best tour I did so far in Australia. It was a great adventure and also relaxing at the same time. I saw a lot of beautiful spots, really great. We had a really good group and also a really good guide!'

'Best experience since coming to Australia. Wish it wasn't over. The guide conducted a more than perfect tour. Thankyou for the highlight of my travels!'

'Great tour. The guide is a great tour guide, lots of fun and easy to talk to. I felt really taken care of. He makes camping and the outback feel safe. He is very organized, smooth running. Thanks for the awesome food, info and great time.'

'I've never slept on the ground, but it was so beautiful, so many stars in the sky. I won't forget this experience. Thanks a lot.'

'Amazing - I loved every minute, especially the Kings Canyon walk and bush shower.'

'Fab tour - liked explanations of geology and walks at Kings Canyon and the Olgas.'

'Fantastic 3 day trip. I had a blast. Looking at other groups we saw along the way I am confident we had the best company and the best guide ... I will never forget this trip.'

'Fabulous 5 days, even the early starts - well worth it. At beginning, did seem like all tours were doing the same route, but we soon lost them at Kings Creek. This tour came highly recommended from someone we met in New Zealand ... It did not disappoint!'

'This tour was pretty funny and interesting. I was surprised about the guide's knowledge about everything. Therefore, I learned a lot. Thankyou so much, I will never forget this adventure.'

'I only regret not coming on a longer safari! Keep doing the alternative to the bus tours and I will hopefully be back!!'

'Everything about the trip was brilliant. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Australia.'

'Everything was great! The camping experience, the guide, the place we visited. Congratulations.'

'The best 3 days of my life.'

'Like the small group and being away from other big groups. Thankyou!'

'Many thanks to you and your team at Wayoutback for what was definitely the highlight of my trip around Oz ... I would have to give Wayoutback 10/10 - I've been on quite a few tours whilst in Australia and I often had the sense of being just another tourist wallet - something, thankfully, which Wayoutback managed to avoid completely. I'd recommend Wayoutback as a "must do" to anyone without a moments hesitation.'

'... in the myriad of tourist brochure promising to deliver the world ... and wait, there's more ... in a three day tour, I was drawn to the simple blue and orange of the Wayoutback brochure, It told me everything I was going to see without me even having to open the cover. I was not disappointed. There were endless blue skies, a hundred shades of red and all without a thousand other tourists sharing the view. Wayoutback provided the perfect desert escape to the wonders I wanted to see - not in 5 star luxury, but as part of the bush, the way they should be experienced. I enjoyed the journey as much as the destinations - and that's the sign of a good tour ... '

'We were on a trip to Kings Canyon, Uluru, and the Olgas with Tim as our guide from August 10th through the 12th. Not only was he tons of fun, but he was extraordinarily sensitive and knowledgeable about the aboriginal culture, and he understood and helped us understand the geology of the region. He Actually made the trip for us, especially our children, two girls 15 years and one boy 17. Our journey to the red center was a highlight of our trip - because Tim was a terrific guide.'

'Just wanted you to know how lucky you are.'

'I'm writing this email to express my thanks for the 3day safari tour I did with your company on 7th September 2002. This being my first visit to Central Australia and also the first time I've done a safari tour of this type, I have come away with many good memories and a sense of having learned something.'

'Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon were the main highlights of my trip, however, it was the entire experience of setting up camp each night under the stars along with the knowledge and experience that our guide 'Seamus' shared with us that really enhanced the whole tour. I believe my friend Leslie and I made the best choice when deciding which tour company to go with and there is nothing we would change about the whole trip.'

'Thanks especially to Seamus who was friendly, professional but most of all knowledgeable on everything from Aboriginal culture to botanical names for the many native plants and animals unique to the area. He is not only easy going, friendly and enthusiastic, he did well to manage a group of 13 people who were all very different from each other. The world needs more people like him - please pass on my thanks and gratitude.'

'Keep up the good work!'

'Just a quick note to saythank you for hosting a great 3 Day Safari. It lived up to my expectations and then some. I will definitley recommend to future generations of Poms and other travellers.'

'Just finished a Wayoutback Safari 3 day (August 2nd-4th) and absolutely LOVED it!!! I really want to commend Wayoutback on how well put together everything was and how exciting and incredible an experience it was!'

'I especially have nothing but brilliant comments for my tour guide, "Spooky" Luke. He was absolutely excellent and never was at a loss of words!! Also, the knowledge he had about the Outback and its ecosystem was quite deep and impressive!! I learned sooo much from his brief lectures on our bush walks!! He was a very unique and incredible tour guide!'

'This experience was amazing - something I will always treasure back in the States! I will tell everyone about Wayoutback - our guide was wonderful!'

'Best tour I did in Oz and will be one of my best memories of the year I spent here.'

'Great experience. Good size group and the fact our camp area was more private. Cheers.'

'Absolutely brilliant! Don't want to go back to Sydney.'

'As a foreigner wanting to get a bit of insight into Australia this completely exceeded all my expectations. Just the right platform for further trips into the outback.'

'Excellent trip - great variety of pace, fun and beauty.'

'The tour was great, especially the swag camping and cooking over the fire.'

'Tour was excellent. Keep doing what you're doing!'

'This was by far the best tour I've done since I've been in Oz.'

'Enjoyed the trip immensely. Phil was a fantastic guide who was extremely knowledgable and informative on everything from Aboriginal culture, to plant life and history of Australia. Enjoyed having a smaller group size as well.'

'Travel with small group is better to meet and have good feeling with other people.'

'Great experience and brilliant company. Would definitely do it again!'

'Had an excellent time - would definitely recommend the 5 day tour.'

'Loved the bush camps and walks. Excellent tour all round. Great tour to see the outback of Australia.'

'Excellent - enjoyed every minute.'

'It was great, unforgettable.'

'Perfect! Excellent! Best days of my journey in Australia!'

'Excellent trip! The pace was just right, the food the great. Our night in the bush was fabulous. The trip was light years beyond the 2 day trip I took a few years ago.'

'Excellent. The trip to do in Australia!'

'Enjoyed the 3 days so much. Great guide and group. Should have booked a 5 day!'

'Best trip in Australia.'

'Enjoyed tour. It was a more personal experience with smaller group size.'

'Fantastic trip. Memory maker!'

'Top time. Will recommend to anyone!'

'A once in a lifetime experience! The small groups are brilliant, along with the isolation of the 2nd night campsite.'

'Many thanks for a fantastic trip. Guide and group were perfect. Would do it all again.'

'I have had a fantastic time and have enjoyed every minute of it. The guided walks were wonderful. I love sleeping looking at the stars. Thank you.'

'Good to be in a small group to appreciate the wilderness.'

'Excellent trip. Good pace.'

'Had a thoroughly excellent time. The bush shower totally outdid many hostels I have stayed in ...'

'First class guide made the whole experience very memorable and great fun. Thanks.'

'I had a fantastic 3 days. It was really good travelling in a small group. I particularly enjoyed the 2nd night camping in an isolated place. Great trip.'

'Swags were comfortable - some of the best nights sleep I've had. James was very responsible and knowledgable.'

'Small group definitely better - good crowd, brilliant fun. First outback camping experience - thoroughly enjoyed.'

'Great place, great time, great guide. Thanks a million.'

'Great time, really chilled out. The food was brilliant, great experience.'

'Very good - did not feel like a "tour", more like a road trip with your mates, Great stuff.'

'Great fun, great people. Worth the money.'

'Keep going on this way! Thanks.'

'Loved the whole thing - especially when we got away from the crowds. Rich is a great multi-talented guide with an enthusism for all and everything.'

'Excellent throughout - especially like the smaller group size.'

'We've been on your tour from the 2nd till the 4th of August and we had the greatest time in Australia. You are the best organisation and we loved to see the real OUTBACK. It was so much fun. We want to thank our guide, Ian who was so friendly and funny all the time with us tourists. Thanks!!' - Seven students from Mainz in Germany.

'I couldn't have asked for a better central Oz experience. Thanks.'

'Such a good time!! May never do another type of holiday again!'

'It was fab - loved sleeping out under the stars next to the fire and being away from the hoardes of other tourists.'

'Good sized tour. Best way to see the centre.'

'The tour was the best tour I've been on since being in Australia (been here 8 months).'

'This was the most amazing and fascinating tour I have been on. Everything we did was absolutely awesome!'

'Really good tour. I liked the small group.'

'My suggestion is don't change anything.'

'The whole experience was very rewarding. It's difficult to offer any suggestions when so much is gained in such a short space of time.'

'Always felt we were one step ahead of the other tours. Never been so sure I chose the right tour.'

'It was absolutely excellent.'

'Change nothing - excellent!'

'An excellent trip, thanks for everything.'

'Top tour - enthusiasm of guide a strong factor. Could only be bettered by making tour longer.' (A comment from the 5 day tour)

'Opened my eyes to the real outback, not just the tourist destinations.'

'Trip was a great experience. Had a lot of fun, best way to see the outback.'
