Adventure Tours Australia

Adventure Tours are nature-based and designed for those that want to experience the spectacular scenery, flora, fauna, history and culture of each area. While there are few age restrictions on our tours, they are budget in nature and suitable for active, fun-loving people with a reasonable level of fitness who enjoy bush walking, swimming and the great outdoors! Please look at our grading system carefully when choosing your tour, to ensure that the level of activity and facilities are suitable for you.

All Adventure Tours’ guides undergo a comprehensive in-house training program that has been developed extensively over the last 5 years in conjunction with the National Parks boards and Centralian College.

This includes:
• Information on company procedures and requirements.
• St Johns Ambulance First Aid Course including CPR and other
life-saving measures.
• National Parks and Wildlife accredited certificate teaching the guide
about Aboriginal culture and the geography of the different regions.
• Basic mechanical operations and safety checks.
• Driver training program teaching safe driving skills both on and off the
roads.
• Information and seminars on bush craft skills, geology, botany,
history and Aboriginal culture.
• Cooking skills - guides are coached to produce a variety of tasty and
nutritious meat and vegetarian dishes for groups and instructed on
food preparation and hygiene.
• Customer care skills are developed to help guides communicate with
groups and deal with language barriers.
