Traveler Reviews

Really enjoyed the reptile experience the most but the whole tour was so good loved it all.The guides and presenters were so patient and knowledgable.

Enjoyed the tour, especially the School of the Air and the Telegraph Station. Good intro to Alice Springs. Would have liked more background history.

Firstly Brett was a great guide we did this tour on 22nd June, it was informative and plenty of time at each stop we were not rushed and Brett as guide gave alot of information. We stopped at Anzac Hill, School of the Air, Telegraph Station, Flying Doctors. Iwould definitely recommend this

Great way to see and hear about the history of the town, learn about the RFDS, school of the air, telegraph station, reptiles and more, driver/guide very knowledgeable

ATown like Alice tour was wonderful Brett our tour guide was great there was plenty of time, highlights School of Air, Flying Doctors, Telegraph Station , the reptile Park wasn't great
