About Mobile Phone Use/Internet

While in Longreach you can mostly expect regular mobile/wifi reception. On the day tour to Winton for stretches of travel between Longreach and Winton there is not any wifi reception for mobile phone use.

WHATSAPP
If you don’t already use this service, we recommend downloading this application also. It’s a mobile phone App that offers fast, simple, secure messaging and calling for free (data charges may apply – ask your phone provider).

As a general indication, for many of our tours, guides use WhatsApp to communicate with the group. In any case, it’s an easy way to connect with other travellers in your group.
