Frequently Asked Questions

What is a tag-along tour?

You drive a 4WD in a guided convoy. Your guide leads the way, so no 4WD experience is needed — just a valid licence and a sense of adventure.

Are K'gari backpacker tours social?

Yes — they're built around small groups, shared camping and driving in convoy, so they're a great way to meet other travellers.
