This tour accepts tag-along participants

Meal Codes:  B=Breakfast  :  L=Lunch  :  D=Dinner  

Day 1:

After an early start we begin the day with a peaceful cruise on the wetlands of the Darling River then tour the spectacular Menindee Lakes System and Menindee township.  Explore the area to visit a number of the lakes in the system (when full the lakes hold more water than Sydney Harbour), then on to Kinchega National Park.  This area is an oasis for bird and wildlife, with a variety of landscapes that include river and lakes, ancient sand dunes and salt bush plains.  This afternoon we follow the Darling River south towards Bindara Station for our overnight accommodation. First settled in 1849 the property has a wealth of colonial history. Enjoy a campfire dinner with your hosts.  (L,D)

Day 2:  

After breakfast we head towards the historic river port of Pooncarie for morning tea, then on to Mungo NP.  Step back in time to an era when giant marsupials roamed the earth. Mungo is an area rich in Aboriginal history.  Evidence found here dates back well over 40,000 years to mans early occupation of this once much wetter area.  A highlight of the visit to Mungo is the “Walls of China” lunette system.   Late afternoon head to the township of Wentworth for our overnight stay in Motel accommodation.  (LB,L,D)

Day 3: We start the day exploring Wentworth, which is at the confluence of the Murray & Darling Rivers.  We then take a look around Mildura, before heading onto the award winning Trentham Estate Winery for lunch by the Murray River. This afternoon we follow the Silver City Highway back to Broken Hill for trips end.  (LB,L)
