“We thoroughly enjoyed our evening, from the beautiful sunset, to the captains commentary, the fabulous dinner, dessert and damper. A very well organised evening, staff were great, food excellent. As there were many of ilia that came to Apex Park from Muddy Duck, it would be nice to have the bus pick us up. We drove over to Apex Park as it was so dark when we returned”

7.Longreach: Smithy’s Outback Dinner and Show

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 29 reviews · 3 hours · from $70

Spend three hours at Smithy’s beside the Coolibah-lined Thomson River. Your evening includes return coach transfers, a two-course dinner cooked over Gidyea coals, damper, billy tea, and live songs and stories on the River Stage. Alcohol is available to buy, and a jacket is essential.

“The show was not what I expected at a outback show a woman singing songs to electronic music songs that were not relevant to OUTBACK I felt I was in a pub not an outback show where I would have thought there would be stories told about the outback and live music not pressing a computer to make music I was very disappointed”
