Tri State Safaris tours
The accessible outback, Overland tours with Tri State Safaris was borne from a passion to share the remarkable Australian Outback with like-minded adventurers.
Big skies. Red dirt. Campfire stories. Legendary locals.
At Tri State Safaris, we don’t just take you on a tour… we bring the Outback to life.
Born from a passion for sharing the incredible landscapes, culture and characters of Far West NSW, our adventures are all about connection — to Country, to community and to experiences you simply can’t find anywhere else.
From the ancient beauty of Mutawintji National Park and the magic of Mungo National Park, to iconic outback pubs, station stays and unforgettable sunsets — we create journeys that feel authentic, comfortable and full of heart.
Behind the wheel (and usually cracking a joke) are locals Jonathan Oliver and Janine Gowenlock — combining country hospitality with a love for storytelling, adventure and showing guests the Outback they know and love. Jonathan’s Broken Hill roots mixed with Janine’s city-to-outback journey create the perfect blend of local knowledge and warm welcoming vibes.
