YOUR EXPERIENCE PROVIDER
Watjan Tours are self-drive and self-catered. We lead and you follow.
We’re flexible on the itinerary, let us know what interests you and we can come up with a plan. Then pack your 4WD with everything you need for a BYO trip in the bush and let’s go!
We can't wait to make you feel warmly welcome on our lands. You may meet some of our family members too, sometimes we have sons or daughters with us, and quite often we have a grandchild or two, or a niece or nephew. That’s because we are a family that believes the future is with the young people. When we are showing you our culture and traditional ways, we are also preserving our history by teaching the future carers of the lands, as well as showing them how to share our heritage with others. We are looking forward to your visit.
