The Simpson Desert/ Hay River/ Lake Eyre Expedition
Introduction   |   The expedition   |   Catering
Duration: 12 days
Andrew Morse and David Hobbs own and operate Global 4wd Training and Tours and they have been conducting tours and testing 4WD equipment in outback Australia for approx 16 years. They enjoy the opportunity to take people into areas that they would never venture into alone.

Global 4wd Training and Tours has developed the route that you will travel, from our vast experience gained from our many trips into the Simpson Desert/ Hay River regions and the red centre.

We aim to present these areas in the best possible way so that you can experience the uniqueness of our bush and desert with local knowledge. For that reason we are always looking at ways to improve the experience of your expedition to this region.

The weather and road conditions have a strong influence on where, when, and how we travel and on how long we take to travel the section for each day. Some sections are long but there is little that we can do as there are no satisfactory places to camp along the way in some areas.



Lake Eyre

The weather is usually fine but the days may heat uprather quickly so we will take advantage of the cooler parts of the day and travel early. The days are carefully planned and the camping is booked where applicable, but, as we know, our best-laid and set plans always come under test in these remote areas.

We will have daily group meetings to discuss the days travel so that you are prepared for what we shall experience during each day. Whenever or wherever you have a question or query on the expedition, please feel free to ask your guide.

To say the least, this is a challenging tour that should only be undertaken with a group. The Simpson Desert is an extremely popular destination however the weather and travelling conditions are not always kind. It is preferable that the Desert is only tackled with the help of a guide with considerable experience and knowledge in this environment. We enjoy returning to the Simpson each year at this time and we are confident that you will find it a favourite of yours as well.

Best regards,

Ralph Martell & David Hobbs
