South Australia, Western Australia and the Northern Territory, the three states explored in this guide, remain a vast, varied and wild landscape even today. This guidebook tells what to take, what to expect and when to go on Outback travel. It gives information on bush-walking in the Flinders Ranges, croc-spotting near Darwin, wine-tasting in the Barossa Valley and swimming, surfing, sailing and snorkelling along half a continent of coastline. The book also gives details of walking tours, shopping, museums and concerts and just living well in the cosmopolitan yet decidedly Australian cities of Darwin, Perth and Adelaide. A wide variety of accommodation, from hostels, camping and caravanning to B&Bs, farm stays on working ranches, rustic Outback pub hotels and posh resort complexes are listed. Fair dinkum Aussie cuisine, from bush tucker and pub grub to croc, camel, and 'roo steaks is discussed as well as aboriginal history, culture, historical reserves and wilderness and scenic areas, like Kakadu National Park ("home" to "Crocodile Dundee"), Ayers Rock and the Olgas.
