Murray Guides Attractions Events in Victoria

'Cobden Air' provides alternative air tours by chartered aircraft,


Cobden chartered tours and flights depart from most Australian airports. Mildura has friendly people, and is renowned for fresh produce, situated in Northern Victoria along the Murray River and just twenty minutes drive to historical Wentworth.


Mildura was once a sheep station, a dry dust bowl, infested with rabbits, until the late 1800 when the Chaffey brothers introduced Irrigation from the Murray River. The Murray ran dry in the early 1900 causing some average blokes around to suggest they harness the water by building Locks along the river thus ensuring a continual flow when the good Lord didn't send the rain for a time. Now we have both desert and green patches which look like a giant patchwork quilt from the air. That ought to be a good reason to entice one to come stay awhile and take an aerial tour to the Australian outback.
