Peoples Choice Questions - What is the difference between a tour and a safari in Australia

• What is a camping tour in Australia?

• Luxury camping: A term that varies betweens tour operators. We generally say this to be the best camping facilities of the tours that particular tour operator has to offer. This will have campsites with hosts and cooks. The meals will be not be fine dinning but better quality than basic camping. The tents will be slightly bigger with beds frames, pillows, mattresses and linen. Some will have lights and fans.

• Bush camping: Generally - no facilities other than those that are carried on the vehicle. Passengers sleep in swags (Aussie bedroll). The tour will stop along the way at roadhouses for clients to have a shower etc. or swimg in waterholes and gorges.

• Permanent camping: Generally - have permanently erected tents (multi-share), permanent cooking facilities and purpose-built fire pits, screened eating areas, share showers and toilets.

• Semi permanent camping: Generally - tents must be erected by guide and passengers, share showers and toilets, no cooking facilities except those carried on the vehicle.

• Basic camping: Generally - tents must be erected by guide and passengers, share showers/toilets or some/all nights no showers/toilets, no cooking facilities except those carried on the vehicle. (Specified in the itinerary section of your quote whats availabile- if not please ask us). As tour companies may tend to move campsites these facilities change.

• ‘Safari in Style’/Deluxe Campsite - Safari Accommodation (large permanent twin share tents) with proper beds, pillows, linen, towels, fans and lighting. Campsites have permanent cooking facilities, screened eating areas, share showers and toilets.
