Private Tour Guiding

Adventure, comfort, and personal attention – discover the outback with OTTO Tours

OTTO Tours stands for expertly organised, nature-focused journeys through the Australian outback.

Our tours combine relaxed comfort on remote routes with genuine adventure experiences in spectacular landscapes. Far from the crowds and mainstream tourism.

Personalised guidance – from start to finish

Whether you’re travelling in a small group or on a tailor-made private tour, you’ll enjoy personal service that adapts to your wishes – flexible, reliable, and genuinely caring.

No experience? No problem.
You don’t need any prior 4WD skills. Our tours include all the practical instruction you’ll need – hands-on and on the road. “Learning by doing” is our approach, making it easy and enjoyable even for first-timers to handle the challenges of the Australian bush with confidence.

Led by true outback professionals
Our tours are led either by OTTO Tours founders Hans Nuber and Gabriela Himstedt, with over 20 years of outback experience, or by personally trained guides. They not only bring deep knowledge but also a true passion for Australia’s nature, history, and culture.

With OTTO Tours, you can…

… join exciting, guided tag-along tours safari-style – with your own 4WD or a rented off-road vehicle. Travel privately with your own guide or in a small convoy group. The presence of an experienced, qualified tour leader ensures safety, deeper insight, and authentic experiences. Explore iconic highlights such as the Canning Stock Route, the Kimberley, Bungle Bungle (Purnululu), Uluru, Rudall River National Park, Kennedy Ranges, Ningaloo Reef, the Holland Track, Mount Augustus, and more.

… travel as a passenger on one of our epic trans-Australian expeditions – from north to south or west to east. Routes include journeys like Darwin to Adelaide or Perth to Brisbane (and the reverse). Enjoy the ride while we take care of the rest.

… book exclusive private tours into the Australian outback – tailor-made for your family, club, or group of friends. Fully customised, fully unforgettable.
