Your 2027 adventures just got easier, with Outback Spirit offering free return flights on all-inclusive tours.

Picture this: your big Mercedes four-wheeler rumbles along a red-dirt track, the only way to get between the remote communities that call Arnhem Land home. Thankfully, your guide is doing the driving, so you can simply watch as you pass the dense bushland enveloping the vehicle and the cloud of red dust trailing behind you.

You’ve just come from your first stop, a slice of paradise beside the Arafura Swamp near Murwangi. You and your fellow tour guests are the only people around, besides the staff and guides that make this elevated safari-tented camp what it is. By day, the waterbirds of Arafura provide the soundtrack. As the weather cools, cicadas join in. At night, you might even hear the low grumbling of a crocodile before a violent splash; a dead giveaway it’s located dinner.

Ahead lies plenty more to experience, from meaningful connections with local Indigenous artists to the largest outdoor rock art gallery in the world with artworks dating back as far as 55,000 years to seaside bliss at Seven Spirit Bay. All of this on one Outback Spirit tour: the 13-day Arnhem Land Wetlands & Wildlife wilderness adventure from Cairns to Darwin. It’s still the most incredible experience I’ve ever had on my many Australian adventures.

And with Outback Spirit’s Fly Free offer, there’s another reason to stop procrastinating and see it for yourself.

Free return flights with Outback Spirit

The Fly Free offer includes complimentary flights to and from your nearest capital city when you book a 2027 tour – just be sure to book it by 18 December 2027 (subject to availability and blackout dates apply).

Outback Spirit’s itineraries are all-inclusive – whether you’re connecting with the culture of Arnhem Land (as I did), exploring the rugged gorges of the Kimberley, uncovering diverse landscapes in Western Australia, or discovering Tasmania’s hidden gems. That means accommodation, all meals and select beverages, transport, park permits and guided experiences are all part of the package.

“Our passionate and experienced guides will provide you with valuable insights into the culture, history and wildlife of the region you’re exploring … And now you can fly free at the start and end of your tour," said Cesar Piotto, Executive General Manager Touring at Journey Beyond.

Further discounts on select tours

There are further savings being offered on selected tours. The 15-day Jewels of the Kimberley & Faraway Bay itinerary from Broome to Darwin is adding a saving of $1,310 per couple. The trip includes two helicopter flights, the striking Horizontal Falls and two nights at exclusive Faraway Bay on the remote North Kimberley Coast, surrounded by ancient escarpments and pristine wilderness.

Or, join the 9-day South Western Explorer adventure, beginning and ending in Perth, with a saving of up to $600 per couple. Stroll through the treetops at the Valley of the Giants, stop at the iconic Wave Rock, see the giant Karri and Tingle trees of the ‘Ancient Empire’ and treat yourself to lunch in the Margaret River.

The Red Centre Explorer, Eyre Peninsula Whale and Seafood Discovery, and Queensland Hinterland Explorer are also being offered with further discounts on top of the free return flights. Find all the details on the Outback Spirit website.
