Behind every great outback tour is a passionate team — and the 2026 Tri State Safaris relaunch is being driven by a group of locals who live and breathe Far West NSW.

Leading the revival is Overland Adventures, an award-winning regional operator based in Broken Hill. Owners Janine Gowenlock and Jonathan Oliver bring decades of combined experience in tourism, outback travel, charter operations, and community partnerships.

Supporting them is a talented roster of dedicated guides, drivers, pilots and support crew, including:

  • Expert local guides with deep knowledge of geology, wildlife, Aboriginal culture, and outback history

  • Seasoned charter drivers with thousands of kilometres of remote-area touring experience

  • Station stay partners who share genuine homestead hospitality

  • Local tourism operators committed to delivering authentic, connected experiences

“Everyone involved has a real love for this region,” says Jonathan. “Our team doesn’t just guide tours — they tell stories, create memories, and show guests the kind of hospitality you can only find in the outback.”

Guests can expect professionalism, warmth, safety, and the kind of down-to-earth connection that makes every Tri State safari unforgettable.
