Departure Date:	TBA
Journey:	Brisbane (round trip)

"I chose Nature-Bound to take my wife and I and friends on a comfortable adventure deep into the Australian heartland, to the lonely site of one of our nation's most significant and tragic exploration events. In Australia our wilderness areas are quite unique and the history of exploration and European settlement in this arid region clearly, in my opinion, gave birth to the very spirit of Australia. I reckon the wilderness meets the aspiration within each one of us to rediscover our souls. The call of the outback added a splendid dimension to our lives as it did to the explorers, pioneers, settlers and travellers who proceded our journey. I am still in awe of the great frontier lands. Your tour provided a level of enjoyment, comfort and personal attention which was extraordinary in itself" - Everald Aust.

(based on 8 people)

Duration:	13 days
Departure Date:	TBA
Journey:	Longreach to Brisbane

"Your tour reached into the very outback spirit of Australia as promised, the landscape, the people and folklore. I only hope many more Australians huddled around the coast line will visit their country heartland and appreciate what my wife and I experienced. Walking the canyons of Carnarvon Gorge was a highlight and not too difficult and the Stockmans Hall of Fame exceptional for a country initiative. I now know why all my fishing and boating mates would like Lady Musgrave Island to remain their secret hideaway" - Brian (Australia)
