It’s no longer just about adventure tours Australia – now tourists from overseas & locals want foodie adventure tours! Here’s some tasty trips of a lifetime …

There was once a time when on an outback adventure tour in Australia all you could expect to eat was damper, barbecued sausages and steak and corn on the cob. Don’t get me wrong, I love a ripping steak cooked in the great Australian outdoors, but for many the times they are a’changing.

Adventure tours are the latest trend in travel in Australian tourism. It’s no longer good enough to see sites and visit places. Today’s travellers want to experience the life, discover the culture and taste the local food and wine on offer. On an adventure tour you can dig down into the culture of the places you visit, meet the locals, learn the culture and experience the local delicacies.

At the end of the holiday you have a greater understanding as well as being refreshed and relaxed. So it’s good that along with a change in people’s wishes the Australian tourism industry has matured to deliver exactly what travellers are looking for and across Australia there are a plethora of Adventure tour options to choose from.

Australia is becoming renowned around the world for its high quality eating options. Every state in the nation has opportunities for tourists to discover the local nature and culture on the holiday of a lifetime.
