PERSONAL
BIRDING TOUR FEES
FOR 2023 & 2024
Spring/early summer bookings: due to the high demand of our services from September to December there will be no exclusive
bookings — we will take up to four birders. It may be that no one else
is looking for your dates, in which case you will have the booking on
your own. Outside that timeframe, AOS is willing to have birders
join forces to save costs. Please indicate that you are happy to have
others join you when booking. If you would prefer to have an exclusive
booking (outside the spring timeframe) please indicate that you would
prefer others not to join you. However, it is at AOS's discretion as to whether one or two other birders join
an already booked date.
See
fees below for shared costs.

The cost can be shared by up to three birders. For example, $756 AUD
(first day of sample itinerary) if shared by three birders is $252 AUD
per person. A fourth birder also pays $252 AUD.
Motel
charges and food are not included in the above costs. Clients will need
to pay for the guide's accommodation and meals when away from Deniliquin.
In country Australia three-star motel charges for a twin/single room are around
$130.00 AUD. An all-inclusive price can
be organised.
The Riverside

Payment: For small personal tours (1-3 days), payment is due when booking (negotiable).
Overseas
clients: EFT (wire transfer) is our preferred method of payment, however, a bank draft in Australian dollars is acceptable if you choose not to transact an EFT.
Contact AOS for account details for an EFT.
Meals: Unlike our away from the Deniliquin district scheduled tours, such as Far North Queensland, Central Australia etc, meals are not provided on personal tours. However, meals can be organised for larger birding tour groups. Contact Patricia if your tour requires catering.
