Climate
Australia is by nature a warm and friendly place, and while you can expect high temperatures in the summer months, it is worth
preparing for lower temperatures, especially at night and during
the Australian winter. Bear in mind that conditions can change quickly, especially in Southern Australia, and you should be prepared
for low temperatures with rain at times.
Luggage?
During your safari, the vehicle has limited space. We ask that you keep your luggage to a maximum of 15 kgs and include a
small backpack to hand carry for easy access to camera, film, etc.
What do I Eat?
Our emphasis is on fresh food wherever possible and our meals are nutritious and varied. If you are vegetarian or gluten intolerant we
can cater for you, but if you have very specific dietary requirements you may need to provide your own food, please discuss this at
time of booking. For breakfast we supply cereals, toast, tea and coffee. Lunch is normally a sandwich and salads; in the evening
we enjoy a cooked dinner. We always carry water in the vehicle and you will often have the opportunity to buy your own drinks,
ice-creams etc from roadside stops.
Where do 1 meet the Tour?
At time of booking please ask your agent for your place of pick-up.
