The Australian Yarn Package: Experience Bourke
Be welcomed with a smile and G’Day as the story begins of the people who lived before you...
Embrace the raw beauty of the ancient river red gums along the banks of the Darling River when you jump aboard a river cruise on the PV Jandra Paddleboat, just 2 hours drive north of the Gundabooka National Park.
Departing daily at 9am and 3pm from Kidman’s Camp, be taken on a journey back through time reliving memories of life on the river when river trade was king.
The world-class Back O’ Bourke Exhibition Centre share the stories of how both white settler and traditional Aboriginal occupiers impacted the development of the town in a series of interactive story-telling installations.
But it’s the Outback Stockman’s Show that brings Bourke to life with its unique sense of Australian humour, and performances of man and his animals from a bygone era.
