Australasia Walks & Tours

Multi-award Winning Eco-Comfort Camps

On the Larapinta Trail in Central Australia and on Flinders Island in Tasmania, both part of the Great Walks of Australia collection, you experience a refined level of wilderness comfort designed to enhance your time on the trail.

On the Larapinta, our exclusive semi permanent Eco-Comfort Camp forms part of our In Comfort range. Each day you return to hot showers, spacious twin share tents with standing height, raised stretcher beds and a generous communal shelter for dining and relaxing. Sit down toilets add further comfort in this remote desert landscape, supporting rest and recovery between walks.

On Flinders Island, accommodation is carefully positioned in spectacular coastal settings, combining immersion in nature with a high standard of comfort and low impact operations.

Camping

Camping across Australian trips is fully supported and designed to suit the environment you are travelling through.

We use high quality two person tents selected for each terrain, traditional swags on classic outback safaris, and mozzie domes during the Tropical Top End dry season. Your crew manages camp setup and meals, allowing you to focus on the experience.

Many camps are located within National Parks, often featuring well maintained toilet facilities, raised timber platforms, rainwater tanks and composting toilets. This style of travel keeps you close to the landscape while maintaining a practical and comfortable base in remote settings.

These adventures feature in our Classic collection.

Cabins and Stations

Across Australia and New Zealand, you may stay in characterful cabins, lodges and working stations that reflect the landscapes and heritage of each region.

Accommodation is typically in private or twin share rooms, often within restored homesteads, alpine lodges or purpose built guest cabins. In Australia, this may include remote bush properties or historic cattle stations, while in New Zealand, stays can be in rural lodges or high country stations surrounded by mountains, lakes or farmland.

Facilities are comfortable and practical, offering a relaxed base at the end of each day while keeping you connected to the spirit and scale of Australasia’s great outdoors.

Farm Stays

In New Zealand, you may stay with local Kiwi families on working farms set in peaceful, remote locations.

These farm stays offer a genuine insight into rural life, where you can learn about the landscape, daily routines and traditions that shape the region. Accommodation is welcoming and comfortable, with a strong sense of personal hospitality.

Home cooked meals are a highlight, often prepared with fresh local ingredients and shared around the family table, adding warmth and authenticity to your adventure.

Eco Lodges

On select tours in Tasmania and New Zealand, you stay in environmentally sensitive lodges or thoughtfully designed semi permanent structures set within natural surroundings.

These properties are built to work with the landscape, often powered by solar energy and supported by rainwater collection systems, extending comfort while maintaining a low environmental footprint. Accommodation is warm, well appointed and carefully integrated into its setting.

Meals highlight quality local produce and are often paired with regional wines, adding a distinctly local flavour to your stay in these wild and beautiful regions.

Private Huts

Across Australia and New Zealand, private huts offer a simple yet authentic way to stay close to the landscape.

Styles vary by region, from rustic alpine huts perched high above Lake Tekapo to the more comfortable Cradle Huts along Tasmania’s Overland Track, where you can enjoy hot showers and warm bedding after a day on the trail. Most huts are multi share with shared bathroom facilities, reflecting their remote settings.

This style of accommodation keeps you immersed in the environment while providing practical shelter in some of Australasia’s most iconic walking regions.

On Water Expeditions

On our water based expeditions in Australia and New Zealand, accommodation ranges from well equipped small cruise vessels to more luxurious expedition ships.

In New Zealand, small cruise boats provide comfortable cabins with all bedding supplied. Bathroom facilities may be shared or ensuite, and meals are freshly prepared on board by the vessel’s crew, allowing you to relax and take in the scenery between shore excursions.

In the Kimberley and parts of the Pacific, the True North offers a premium expedition experience, with stylish cabins, private ensuite facilities, in house entertainment and satellite communications. The Odyssey, a 20 berth twin hulled cruise vessel, features standard or deluxe cabins with shared facilities, delivering a relaxed and intimate cruising experience.
