About this tour

Saddle up for a four-hour plunge into outback history aboard a restored Cobb & Co stagecoach near Longreach. You'll roll through town at a gentle pace, then gallop hard along the original mail route that once connected Longreach and Windorah. Feel the horses' hooves pound the red dirt, hear the timber creak and rattle, and experience what frontier mail carriers endured daily. Round it out with home-baked scones, jam and cream, then catch a classic bush picture show before browsing the Courtyard collection.

Highlights

  • Gallop a restored stagecoach on authentic outback track
  • Original Longreach–Windorah mail route terrain
  • Home-baked scones with jam and cream, tea included
  • Vintage bush film screening in retro cinema
  • Browse Cobb & Co Courtyard collection afterwards

What to expect

After meeting your local guide, you'll board the stagecoach for an easy trot through Longreach's streets. The pace then quickens dramatically as you hit the open dirt track—hold tight for the full gallop, the only stagecoach run of its kind in Australia. The ride is genuine and rough, similar to a 4WD track, so expect bumps and dust. Once back, catch your breath over freshly baked morning tea (scones, jam, cream), then settle into retro cinema seats for a classic Australian bush film. Browse souvenirs and local wares in the Courtyard before heading out.

Good to know

The ride is bumpy and unsuitable for those with serious back or neck issues. Infants must sit on an adult's lap. Call ahead if you have dietary requirements. Lunch isn't included but available as an add-on. Wear a hat and grip something—it's a proper gallop.
