On our Cobb & Co Stagecoach Experience you’ll travel in a restored stagecoach on our award-winning tour – first at a leisurely pace through town and then full-tilt along a stretch of the original Longreach-Windorah mail route. Hear the pounding hooves of the magnificent horses on the outback dirt road. Hear the rattle and creak of the coach. Hold on to your hat for the only stagecoach gallop in Australia! It’s exhilarating. It’s entertaining. And it’s the closest you can get to feeling what it would have been like in the pioneer past. After the ride (depending on your itinerary) slow down with a traditional smoko (scones, jam, cream with tea). You'll also enjoy a classic Australian bush movie in retro cinema seats, followed by our Old Time Tent Show – a live performance featuring the very entertaining Kinnon boys. This is good old fashioned fun for all the family and is a tribute to the old travelling shows.

Riding on the top of the stagecoach was awesome, especially when the h I rses galloped. The scones jam and cream were great. The movie was so good, and the tent show was so funny.

My friend and I stayed in the very authentic and amazingly comfortable 'The Stables' accommodation in Longreach and each day, we went on tour with Outback Pioneers. Their organisation was excellent. Such a friendly, welcoming setup - from the first morning coffee served by Dominic, to breakfast with the lovely Diana in the dining room, we had no complaints. Richard Kinnon gave us an exciting ride on the stagecoach. His son Jeremy took us on an entertaining visit to Nogo Station, the family property. Vern drove us to a most enjoyable evening on the riverboat cruise. He also took us to the Dinosaur Discovery Centre in Winton, The Waltzing Matilda Centre and back in Longreach, the Australian Stockmans Hall of Fame and the Qantas Founders Museum. I think we saw it all! Highly recommend Outback Pioneers if you are thinking of visiting Longreach.

This was a fantastic experience that our whole party (70, 69, 36 and 3.5) loved. My father (70) has back issues but he found the ride to be fine and it did not aggravate his back at all. The stage coach ride itself was brilliant and we were not expecting the freshly baked scones with jam and cream afterwards. The movie is quite an old film and was boring for my little one so we stepped out for that while my parents continued to watch it. We then all really enjoyed the old time tent show at the end.

This is a truly fun must do activity in Longreach. The Cobb & Co stage coach ride was really fun, especially when the horses are let loose! Lane was our coach driver & he was so entertaining, making the ride even more enjoyable. The rest of the tour is fun, nostalgic and interesting. Highly recommend.
