Outback Pioneers

Outback Pioneers' award-winning outback tours and experiences, based in Longreach, is all about holidays and experiences that bring the pioneer past to life and take you to the heart of what it means to live large in a region many hundreds of kilometres from big-city boundaries. You'll be thrilled when you board the stagecoach for Australia's only Cobb and Co gallop along part of an old mail route. Or cruise the splendid Thomson River from sunset to starlight in a historic paddlewheeler followed by stockman's dinner by the campfire. There's nothing quite like the Harry Redford Old Time Tent Show with its mix of mayhem, animal antics and crazy humour. And you must visit historic Nogo Station - a working sheep and cattle station where you can see Outback Pioneers' shearer at work and enjoy what is possibly the best home-baked 'smoko' in the west! If dinosaurs are your thing, there's a Outback Pioneers day tour to Winton too visiting the Australian Age of Dinosaurs museum. Whichever of the experiences you choose, you feel you are sharing a real outback experience with genuine outback people who live and breathe the region's past, present and future.
