Epic Road Trip: 4WD through the Australian Outback | Sailing with the Jameses (Ep. 148)

Описание: In this episode we are on a 4WD roadtrip, travelling through the Australian Outback from Darwin to Katherine. Join us on a Northern Territory road trip!

With our boat Emma safely secured in Darwin, we’re trading sails for an awesome set of wheels and kicking off an epic road trip across the Australian Outback to Western Australia! We are trading nautical miles for kilometers and driving through the red outback with lots of eucalyptus, towering termite mounds, endless wide-open spaces, roos, cows, and lots of adventure!

In this episode, we’re picking up our 4WD, giving you a tour and how its going to work, and then we are headed to the Katherine Hot Springs and we share what it's like to road trip through the Northern Territory including cool Outback camping facts, drone footage of these incredible landscapes, and a glimpse of life off the grid. This is just the beginning of our journey west — but trust us, there’s a whole lot of adventure (and surprises) along the way!
