Tour description

Venture into the heart of Australia’s inspiring outback with a journey to Broken Hill — a vibrant, culturally rich city where sweeping red landscapes, big skies and magical desert light have long captivated artists, filmmakers and travellers. Known as the birthplace of Australia’s mining industry, the city’s history is woven through its heritage buildings, galleries, museums and world-class mining attractions. With three full days to explore, travellers can enjoy Broken Hill at a relaxed pace, learning about its silver, lead and zinc legacy while taking in unforgettable desert vistas, stunning sunsets and the uniquely creative character that defines this remarkable inland city.

The journey to and from Broken Hill is just as rewarding. A two-night stay in Dubbo offers time to enjoy the acclaimed Western Plains Zoo, where knowledgeable guides share insights into the zoo’s conservation and breeding programs. After exploring Broken Hill, the tour continues to Wentworth — where the mighty Darling and Murray rivers meet — before travelling through Mildura, the Sunraysia and the Riverina, finishing with an overnight stay in Wagga Wagga. With thoughtfully planned two- and three-night stays throughout, this tour minimises packing and unpacking while showcasing the landscapes, history and people that make inland New South Wales and Victoria so memorable.

Re: Batemans Bay Hi Debbie, We have just returned from a 4-day trip to Bateman’s Bay with with Jimmy as our driver. I wanted to email to tell you how good he was. He was so friendly and pleasant, nothing was too much trouble, and his help / support of our older Ex-Servicemen and their wives was outstanding. He was also very interested in out stories which was lovely. I know we always get that level of service from OnCourse, and wanted you to know that it continued with Jimmy. He was so articulate on the microphone and always had some interesting bits of information about where we were or where we were near. The weather on our trip could have been better, but he did his best, moved things around, found places for us to stop in the rain, and always with a smile on his face and made the trip so enjoyable. His handling of the coach was also something we all commented on. Once again, another lovely trip away, and I wouldn’t hesitate to go on any trip Jimmy was involved in.
