TRAVEL

Words like awe-inspiring come to mind when describing the range of tour destinations organised on CTTravel’s 10 day South Australian tour featuring Adelaide, the Clare Valley, the iconic Marree Hotel (with Outback sightseeing flights) and the Flinders/Gammon Ranges in the Far North.

Although this is a tour that takes in everything a wild and ancient landscape has to offer, it also includes tours of Pastoralists’ heritage homesteads and viewings of their luxury lifestyle. However, regardless of where you are visiting, you can be assured the utmost care has been taken when planning for your comfort and wellbeing on this adventure filled tour.

One of the many tour highlights includes the 1.5-hour flight across the breath-taking Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre Region. This is a memory-making trip that gives you a bird’s-eye view of the multiple geographic points formed in the unique Australian landscape.

The sheer magnitude of the Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre Region is spectacular. It crosses over the Dog Fence, the Marree Man and goes onto Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre South and up through to the Southern tip of Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre North and Belt Bay, the lowest point on mainland Australia. After following the Warburton Groove north, it’s onwards east to the Cooper Creek Inlet, then down through Madigan Bay returning to Marree via Goyders Channel.

The trip complements a brief tour of the city of Adelaide before heading off to the Cedars – the chalet owned by acclaimed Australian artist Hans Heysen.

The 4WD ‘Ridge Top Tour’ at Arkaroola is another highlight. The journey drives through mine tracks winding around some of Australia’s most rugged mountains. You will also be able to take in the magnificent views extending more than 80 kms over Lake Frome, views from this pinnacle are so amazing you may find yourself comparing it to the grandeur of the Grand Canyon! The tour runs between October 23 to November 1, 2022. For more info: go to CTTravel.com
