February 2022 UPDATE -: After a lot of watching and waiting, Mick and I have reluctantly decided not to run any tours for 2022. Basically, assuming restrictions don't change again, WA and SA have reduced the amount of country into which we usually tour (i.e. allowed entry and the ability to refuel & restock) to a small portion of the South Australian Nullarbor, and in the current climate even that cannot be relied upon. For those that are regular travellers with us we miss your company greatly, and for those who were booked in for the first time we were looking forward to meeting you and sharing the stories. Hopefully, the restrictions will pass and we can get back to business as usual in 2023. Please see below for links to our new articles Stay safe, everyone and thank you for your support. |

Have you ever wanted to experience the desert country written about by the surveyor Len Beadell? Armed with information from within the family, Connie Sue Beadell will give you the true picture of what Len and his road-making crew, the "Gunbarrel Road Construction Party", got up to in the 50's & 60's. |
Have you ever wondered how it was possible to survive in the desert for months on end with only camels for transport?
Connie's husband Mick will fascinate you with tales of how the early explorers did it and what they discovered. |
We will show you plants & trees, living creatures and Aboriginal history, things that are missed when schedules are tight.
If you want to learn the correct way to repair a tyre Mick will show you how in detail. Experience the desert with like-minded people, with the added confidence of support and help should anything go wrong. ![]() ![]() Mick's tyre repair demonstration Connie's Caramel Cake Connie will treat you on occasion with goodies fresh & hot, straight from the camp oven. |
