Pre Conference Tour.

Dates

Luxury train travel, like cruising, is having a renaissance. Join us on this iconic journey from Adelaide to Alice Springs – through rolling green pastures, desert dunes, past remote outback towns to the Red Centre of Australia. All this, while enjoying the comforts of the world-famous Ghan and savouring the best of South Australian produce and wines.

Post Conference Tour.

Dates

This is the perfect adventure for the less intrepid traveller. Our convoy of modern four-wheel drives, each with its own driver/guide, will take you to some of the most spectacular and remote parts of the Northern Territory, a number of which are only accessible with special permits. Your days will be filled with the glories of nature; your nights, tucked up comfortably in a hotel bed. PERFECT!
