These are no ordinary whistlestop rushed vacations - we know how important it is to spend time in the landscape, absorb its beauty - walk, paint, photograph - just soak up the magic.
Visit remote and urban Indigenous art centres, see artists at work in their communities, and chat with artists and centre co-ordinators about the important role visual arts play in contemporary Aboriginal society. If you wish, purchase works direct at prices much lower than in city galleries.
These economical, flexible accommodated tours offer you the best of both worlds - explore places well off the beaten track, stay in comfortable accommodation and travel safely in luxury.
