OUR STORY

Founded by Northern Territory guide and storyteller Billy Hall, Oz Eco Tours grew from decades of travelling across Central Australia, learning from Traditional Owners, and sharing the power of Country with visitors from around the world.

Billy's passion for Indigenous culture, environmental conservation, and eco-tourism shaped the business into a premium provider of private outback tours focused on authenticity, environment, safety, and positive community impact.

Our Purpose: The Four Pillars

Culture on Country

We work directly with Traditional Owners, Aboriginal educators, and local communities to deliver respectful and accurate Indigenous cultural experiences. We collaborate to bring tour products that resonate on many levels. This connection and our locations allow a deeper and more intimate uninterrupted connection with country. One that will resonate for a lifetime.

Philanthropy

Adventuring with Oz Eco Tours carries a purpose beyond the tour, your exceptional experiences create exceptional impacts. Every Oz Eco experience directly contributes to organisations protecting Country, Culture, Economy and our Environment. We don't just support local businesses, we help spark and strengthen sustainable micro-enterprise hubs that empower the regions in which we roam. Through these partnerships, your journey becomes part of a wider legacy that uplifts communities and protects Country.

Environment

As an eco-tourism operator, we use sustainable practices, low-impact systems, and ethical Australian suppliers to protect fragile landscapes across the NT and NSW. We leave no trace. We waste nothing. We measure everything. We support manufacturers who make a positive impact in this space and who provide high quality sustainable gear.

Economy

We are Australian owned and every tour you take keeps the Aussie Tourism Dollar where it belongs: right here at home. When you choose us, you are fueling a stronger, more sustainable local economy and helping create bigger, better experiences for everyone. We work with Australian businesses wherever possible, raising the bar for Australian Tourism so your adventure delivers now and long into a hopeful future.
