Our 4 day/3 night trip to view Lake Eyre/Kati Thanda with Lake Eyre Tours was excellent. Craig, our guide, was welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable, interesting and interested, and he did a great job melding our group of ten people into a friendly, cohesive unit. We saw some unforgettable sights and experienced the desert in full bloom. Our accommodation and food/drink was excellent, especially at Parachilna and the bus had enough spare seats to allow us to spread out a bit. Highlights, not in any particular order, included driving through Ikara-Flinder’s Ranges National Park/Wilpena Pound/Brachina Gorge; Wadna Aboriginal Centre; Ediacara National Park fossil centre; Farina ghost town; the Marree Pub; our 90 minute flight over Kait Thanda/Lake Eyre; driving on the recently re- opened Oodnadatta Track to William Creek; the flat plains of green as far as the eye could see; the incredible wildflower display; turning off the Oodnadatta track to travel 160km of dirt road to Coober Pedy; racing the incoming rain front in the last third of the trek to Coober Pedy (and not being bogged indefinitely- thanks Craig 🙏🏻); the friendships and the unique experiences. We were incredibly lucky with the weather and the road closures and, most of all, with our host/driver/raconteur, Craig. It was a memorable trip. Thank you.
