Overnight Trip to Undarra Lava Tubes
Keith and Angie took a tour to Undara Lava Tubes last weekend . The self drive trip was interesting with the variance in landscape as you travel the 290km drive. We booked into the carriages which on 1st impression was adequate and cosy . We were a little disappointed when we realized there was no fridge to keep our drink cold and no tea or coffee making facility available in our room. After a quick settle in we went for a dust off in the pool which was refreshing. We spent time looking at the bird life until we went out on the sunset wildlife tour which was interesting and informative, Tim our Guide was excellent. After we arrived back to the complex we had our evening meal which was really nice, well done chef! After dinner we went to the campfire where one of the Savanah Guides holds talks on various topics. Off to bed after that for a night listening to the sounds of the bush from the carriage. In the morning we headed off to the bush breakfast, great choice, different but refreshing. Then off for our half day Lava Tubes Tour, Tim our Guide again didn’t let us down, amazing and interesting tour, by the end of the morning it was almost information overload, I never was much of a student. Back to camp to check out and a swim in the pool before setting off back to the real world again .On reflection of our weekend we had a great time. I would definitely recommend staying at least overnight, but I would suggest stopping in the deluxe swag tent option as they provide a fridge and gas hot plate unlike the premium carriages.
