TWO DAY TOUR
680 k'm round trip
You will see most of the significant historical sites and locations of where
The kelly story took place, please read the following carefully.
See below, I think you will agree that this is a extensive whirlwind tour, most stops will be only to take a picture or two, and we must travel at least as fast as the speed limit, were safe, Or you will run out of time.
So what’s the catch you ask ? how can it be free ?
Well that’s easy, I do not charge you anything for the tour, BUT “everything” is at YOUR own expense, fuel, accommodation, food etc.
We travel in your car, and I try to stay at Tanswells Hotel, your choice of accommodation is up to you,
If anybody is interested please email me, for further details, conditions apply
MY PREFERENCE is to do this tour is during the week, but we may be able to do this at the weekend.
