2005
Dec. 2004, January to March 2005:
During our summer months with often extremely high temperatures we discourage tours to desert regions.
However there are many destinations that are still possible, especially along the south and south-east coast and in the Victorian High Country. Here you can find parts of Australia that are very different to peoples perceptions of the Red Continent.
During summer we often run 6 to 14 day tours in those areas and can usually customise them to your requirements.

Please contact us here with your expression of interest: Summer Tours

Our Prices:
As many of our tours are customised to our customers preferences we prefer
to present you with a firm quote that is based on your final itinerary.
We do not charge for the preparation of itinerary and our quote!
All our prices are all inclusive, with any exceptions clearly stated in your itinerary.

Although we have taken just single travellers on tours that is quite expensive and we generally
require at least two participants on any tour. Even with two participants the prices are approx. 35% higher than with four participants.
Our best per person prices for most of our tours are possible when there are four participants on our tours, better still if it is a round trip, starting and finishing in Melbourne.

We are a small business ( we like it that way ) and unfortunately we often have to turn customers away when their travelling dates are fixed and we are already committed for those dates.
It is not rare for our customers to book tours over 12 months in advance.
To avoid disappointment it is advisable to contact us early and if from overseas, before you reserve your flights. .

Our General Terms and Conditions apply to all tours booked from our web pages.

Australian Red Centre Adventures is a small family business, operating since 1996.
With us you are not just a number! Mike, the owner, driver and guide has been travelling
throughout Australia for nearly 40 years, including the most remote areas of the continent.
His customers are not pax2 or pax40 etc., but participants on his adventures and he loves to
show off "His Backyard".
Mikes decision in 1998 to entirely promote his tours over the internet was prompted by
the fact that printed material, such as brochures and print media advertising was very expensive
and not very productive.
Just think how many glossy brochures you have collected over the years,
only to drop them into the trash can?
What a waste of resources, mainly paper - read precious trees!!!
Hi, I'm not a 'greenie' but I do believe in conserving and protecting our environment.
I have seen too much destruction over the years - even in remote areas.

The profile of my tour participants:
They love nature.
Can't stand travelling on buses with 40 or more other people.
Travel at a relaxed pace with time for observations, photos, personal 'time out'.
Flexible and adaptable to changing conditions.
Forget about the phone, even take off their watches.
Seek experiences rather than just seeing the most in the shortest possible time.
Come to Australia with an open mind and without preconceived ideas.

What if things are against us?
Rain, Storms, closed 4WD tracks?
We take it as it comes and make the best of the situation.
After all, there is nothing you or I can do to change nature.
As Slim Dusty says in one of his songs:
"You got to drink the froth to get the beer".....
