Katherine Outback Experience - Katherine Outback Experience What an amazing place and fabulous show put on by Tom Curtain and his mates. The horsemanship exhibited, the fantastically trained dogs, the horses and a sundry of animals all performed perfectly. I was captivated for 2 hours with entertainment you would pay a lot more for. The knowledge imparted, the inclusion of the audience, the music and lyrics were outstanding. Will highly recommend to anyone visiting the area or just passing through. Do yourselves a favour and don’t miss the Katherine Outback Experience. 10/10

Wonderful experience of outback life - A wonderful experience of outback life with animals. Training was well explained and Tom and his team have a great rapport and understanding with their horses and dogs. It was so much more than a show for tourists and really gave a feeling of outback station life.

5 Star Experience all the way! - A fantastic down to earth experience, Tom and his team do an amazing job of training both horses and dogs and do an excellent demonstration of their skills and capabilities. Tom also entertains you with several of his songs and also does so from horseback. This show is one of the best experiences we have had in the NT and is a must do when visiting Katherine.

Highly Enjoyable - The show was terrific, all the little things were thought of as well, a cool towel and water, as well as feeding animals for the kids after they'd been sitting for half an hour. It was educational and entertaining.

ENTERTAINING & EDUCATIONAL - Absolutely loved the dogs. The different personalities of each dog meant the handler had to constantly adjust

Enjoyed the morning - Really enjoyed , was good to hear how they train and break the horse. The music was an added bonus. Beautiful facilities. Love the special touch of a cool towel and cold water at the start. All people who participate in the show run the facilities. Great for all ages.
