Adventum Tours: Australia Product Features
Authentic Tour Guide Experience
Our friendly tour guide from Australia, Addison, is back to give your tour passengers custom narrated tours with each flight. The tours are filled with points of interest information, aboriginal culture, Australian history, pop culture facts, and geographic information throughout Australia.
20 - Adventum Tours: Australia Tour Missions
You won't be flying multiple leg-to-leg routes with Adventum Tours. Our tour missions were created from the inspiration of real-life aircraft tour operators by having just one takeoff and one landing to complete each tour. The tours included are:
Adelaide Tour (South Australia)
Alice Springs Tour (Northern Territory)
Canberra Tour (Capital Territory)
Darwin Tour (Northern Territory)
Great Barrier Reef Tour (Queensland)
Hobart Tour (Tasmania)
Melbourne Tour (Victoria)
Perth Tour (Western Australia)
Sydney Tour (New South Wales)
Uluru National Park Tour (Northern Territory)
Each mission is available in two different mission modes: Casual and Advanced Pilot
Casual Pilot Start: These missions are created for those using Microsoft Flight Simulator with a controller/gamepad. You will start at the end of the departure runway, with the engine running, so you can just throttle up and go. After you complete the tour, land the aircraft and simply shut down the engine to achieve each mission.
Advanced Pilot Start: These missions are designed for Microsoft Flight Simulator users who have access to a keyboard and mouse, a yoke or joystick with a keyboard, or those who are savvy with the controller/gamepad. You will need to perform entire aircraft startup and shutdown procedures to complete each mission. You will start at the parking ramp with the aircraft in a "cold & dark" state.
20 Tour Missions in Total (Includes 10 Tour Missions for each Mode)

I admit I am a fan of the Bush Trips concept in general. I did several of the tours and like them very much. They are not too long, 45 min or 1 h or so, legs are short, too, say 10 min, and there is a nice voice over by a lady as a travel guide. Places like the Great Barrier Reef or Alice Springs are well-selected.
I much prefer them over the Perfect Flight Bush Trips being very long and sometimes leading over just water or forest for 30 min or longer with nothing interesting to detect.
