You might not know about The Eltham Pub but let’s just say the locals certainly do. Situated in the Byron Hills it is truly a must go. An authentic taste of both an Aussie country pub and small-town wonder - serving great quality (not to mention delicious) food, live music and cold beers to boot. And the best part….you don't have to drive - leave that to us! Throw in 4X4 troopy session, a stop off along the way at photo-worthy scenic vistas, a roam around the small picturesque town of Newrybar - there you have yourselves a perfect day out with the crew.
This is the classic day tour, where we show you the best (and secret) local spots in the area. We’ll pick you and your friends up in an epic Troop Carrier 4X4 before your local guide will take you off-road for a little play in the mud (the troopy loves it). Then venture into the Byron Hinterland, where there are photo ops galore. Arriving at The Eltham Pub just in time for a classic Australian pub lunch, with a few beverages if you please. Next, it's off to check out the stunning local town of Newrybar. Finishing the day off with a scenic drive home. Happy days.
Go on a solo mission and take advantage of the one on one surf instruction, or bring the posse along with 1 - 7 spaces available. Whether you’re a family, backpacker or girl gang - you’re guaranteed an awesome experience.

The Eltham Pub
We can think of no better way to experience the country than by visiting the iconic Eltham Pub. Situated in the heart of the Byron Bay Hinterlands, we can certainly get on board when ‘cold beer, meals til’ late, live music & accommodation’ are on the menu. Known for its cracking menu, epic atmosphere and just bloody good times.
Newrybar
Newrybar is one of a series of hamlets bypassed by the highway, forgotten by the railway, and all the better for it. Tiny as it is, Newrybar is a must-stop location.
