Overland Journeys Tours & Travel Guide

Overland Journeys Attractions & Landmarks Guide

An Overland Journey is a very specific type of travel, which originated in Australia. It usually involves traveling for an extended period of time, as well as a distinct focus on travelers involvement with all facets of the trip. On any given day you may be helping cook meals, clean up, or organize an activity. This type of travel is not for everyone - most trips include long stretches over rough, bumpy terrain, and the term “roughing it” definitely applies to the experience. But the community aspect attracts open minded, fun, people and you’re sure to make lasting friends.
