Sunrover Expeditions

Sunrover Tours is a small professional tour operator that has run specialised nature based tours for over ten years. Their tours are package-holidays, where guests enjoy fully catered and guided experiences in some of the most astounding places in Queensland, including Fraser Island, Moreton Island, Stradbroke Island and Carnarvon Gorge National Park. Tours depart from the Gold Coast, Brisbane and Noosa. Sunrover Tours keeps their groups small and takes pride in offering personalised services. Their office is based in Scarborough, which is only 25 minutes from Brisbane where they pick up and return their guests with four wheel drive vehicles (as the sand islands have no sealed roads). Some tours offer the choice of staying in tents on camp sites or to upgrade to beach lodges or hotel accommodation, for example the Eco Award winning Kingfisher Bay Resort on Fraser Island.

By night, the outback is deathly quiet, with the only light provided by the stars and the moon - a perfect oportunity for stargazing. Explore the isolated heart of the country, meet and connect with Aboriginal people and experience one of the oldest living cultures in the world. Go ‘walk-about’ and immerse yourself with Australia’s endless outback horizons.
