🎨🚌 SILO ART & LONG PADDOCK ADVENTURES – PART 3!

And the photos keep coming! 📸 Our River Country Silo Art & Long Paddock Touring Route has certainly given us plenty to photograph and plenty to talk about!

We’ve continued our journey through the country, discovering incredible murals, water tower art, quirky sculptures, fascinating history and some beautiful little towns along the way.

But as always, it’s not just about the places we visit it’s the people, laughs, meals together and memories made along the way that make a Daytripper tour so special. 💙

🚌🎨🌾 What a fabulous few days exploring this wonderful part of Australia!

🎉💙 10 YEARS OF LEAH! 💙🎉

This September marks a very special milestone at Daytripper: Leah has officially been part of our team for 10 YEARS! 🥳

And what would we have done without her?!

Leah is quite simply a powerhouse. She’s funny, incredibly organised, across absolutely EVERYTHING, and her attention to detail is second to none. If something needs doing, organising, fixing, remembering or following up… chances are Leah is already three steps ahead! 😂

Over the past 10 years, she has put so much time, care and effort into Daytripper, our tours and, most importantly, our customers. We are incredibly proud of her and feel very lucky to have had her by our side for an entire decade.

There are some people who simply become an important part of a business, Leah is absolutely one of those people. 💙

Leah, THANK YOU for everything you have done (and continue to do!) for Daytripper. I genuinely don't know how we would have done it without you.

Here’s to 10 years of hard work, laughs, organisation, controlled chaos and keeping us all on track! 😂🥂

Please help us celebrate our greatest employee ever and congratulate Leah on an amazing 10 years with Daytripper! 🎉👏💙

☀️🌧️ ONE THING WE CAN’T CONTROL… THE WEATHER! 🌬️☔

When you travel with Daytripper Tours, we take care of the planning, the itinerary and all the little details along the way… but unfortunately, we haven’t quite mastered controlling the weather yet! 😂

Rain, hail, wind or sunshine, sometimes Mother Nature has her own plans. While we’ll always do our best to adapt where we can, the weather is simply one part of travelling that’s out of everyone’s hands.

So our best advice? Check the forecast, pack for all possibilities and bring a sense of adventure! 🧥☂️🧢

After all, a little rain doesn’t have to spoil a great day out sometimes it just makes for a better travel story! 🚌💙

What’s the craziest weather you’ve experienced on one of your travels? Tell us below! 👇
