When Murwillumbah businessman Tom Rayner sat down at his computer to buy an ex-Army Land Rover, he was only thinking about using it to take his two Labradors to the beach. You can imagine his surprise when he discovered he had actually purchased four! They were in an amazing condition and had personality, they were unique, niche and appealing - AWOL Adventures was born.
AWOL HQ is located in the heart of Murwillumbah, and is now home to a fast growing fleet of over 45 ex-Army Land Rovers and Auscam trucks. You are guaranteed to turn heads as you drive down the main street of town, with their camo colours, and the vehicles are the stars of this new Adventure Tourism business.
AWOL Adventures fills a gap in the Australian Tourism Market by giving travellers the opportunity to go on an adventure like they have never been on before. Whether they hire a vehicle for a self-drive experience, tag along, on a Tag-Along Tour, or join one of their specially designed escorted tours, AWOL Adventure have something for everyone.
The AWOL fleet ranges from 110 Perentie 4WD’s to 6WD Perentie troop carriers and custom campers, trailers and camp kitchens. The troop carriers are ideal for small group guided tours of 8 to 10 people. The customized two seater 110 Perentie 4 x4 campers are decked out with camping gear and mattress in the back with a mesh enclosure. 4x4 Camp trailers for extended camping adventures are also available.
We are perfectly positioned to become the ‘Gateway to the Green Cauldron’ says Tom. ‘Even when you take locals out in these vehicles they smile from ear to ear and we couldn’t ask for more!. We want people to have fun, explore our region and have the freedom to do it in their own way,’ he explained. ‘We want them to Go AWOL from their everyday life and give them an experience of a lifetime that has them wanting more!’
The story of AWOL Adventures is all about passion, opportunity and determination. It is a great Australian story and one we are sure will have many chapters to come!
