A highlight of this day tour is the award-winning Age of Dinosaurs museum

For a town of fewer than a thousand people, Winton has played an outsized role in Australian life - it’s where "Waltzing Matilda" was first performed, and it was the birthplace of the country’s flag carrier airline. Discover some of that legacy on this full-day tour. Although you can organize your own Winton tour, this tour cuts out the hassle of outback car rental and finding your way on dusty desert roads.
