Make sure you have a meal at the Greek restaurant in Coober Pedy. Need to book though.

If you want to teach the kids about nature in the desert take them toArid Lands Botanic Garden on the Stuart Highway just out of Port Augusta.

Did this trip in 2008 with a Mazda Tribute towing a C/T.

Assuming that that the Kluger is an auto. I'd strongly advise that you to install a secondary transmission cooler. We nearly cooked ours on the first day out of Sydney, driving the thing a bit too hard. At the slightest whiff of a hill, the Tribute would hunt down the gears and then back up again and so on.

Suggest you drive it with the O/D off as well. This will save on the frequency of gear changes.

It's absolutely beautiful country out there and I will certainly recommend the trip.

Cheers.
