26th April 2026 - Broken Hill - Menindee Lakes - Silverton - White Cliffs trip is now available.

We will be departing on 26th April, 2026. This has been chosen to avoid Easter, the school holidays, and Anzac Day.
I have attached the itinerary for your perusal. The only difference to the attachment is that the price for a solo traveller is $2863.00.
Should a solo traveller wish to bring a Non-Probus guest to share their room and thus alleviate some expense, that will be fine. Non-Probus guests add an extra $50.00 to the price.
Our coach will be only 2 months old, and features reclining seats, USB chargers, Wi-fi, Restroom, Tray tables, 3 TV's, Wheelchair/assistance lift available, urn, fridge, iPad audio visual system - very comfy indeed! All meals are included.
$50.00pp non-refundable deposit is required now, with a further $150.00 deposit due in October 2025. Full payment will be due in February 2026.
I hope this excites you, and you add your name to the sign-up list.
