Outback Mail Run: Coober Pedy - Oodnadatta - William Creek


Embark on an extraordinary journey departing from Coober Pedy every Monday and Thursday (see note below) - the Outback Mail Run awaits you. This is your chance to bid farewell to the bitumen and delve into the mesmerizing expanse of the South Australian outback, in the company of the remowned Outback Mail Man. Traverse untamed landscapes and venture to remote pastoral stations and communities on a one-of-a-kind adventure.


Setting out from your Coober Pedy accommodation, the Outback Mail Man will guide you through over 600 kilometres of rugged terrain, unveiling the splendour and marvels of this truly unique region. Immerse yourself in the tales of early settlers and explorers, step foot on present-day homesteads, savour the flavours of quirky outback establishments, and embrace a lifestyle preserved by a select few. 


Meet the legendary Bruce Ross, your charismatic Outback Mail Man, who weaves an entertaining and captivating story about the country he holds dear to his heart. Bruce and his equally enthusiastic team of guides will treat you to a day filled with insights and entertainment. 


Flights over Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre, departing from either William Creek or Nilpinna Station, can be organised with the outback flight specialists, Wrightsair. Passengers wanting to partake of this option, will re-connect with the Outback Mail Run at the end of their flight. An experience not to be missed. Let us know if you're interested when you book your tour.

Lunch & refreshments are available to purchase at either the Pink Roadhouse Oodnadatta or the William Creek Hotel. A snack pack is provided during your tour.
