Called here to collect our tickets for the Starlight Cruise and discovered that it was also an emporium that harkened back to outback pioneering days while stocking modern merchandise. It's all here, clothing, hats, boots, leatherware, local crafts, toys, books, homewares, haberdashery, jewelry, giftware, in fact, a veritable Aladdin's cave. My wife thought that she was in wonderland, the bank account reduced somewhat on departure. Lovely staff, very friendly and helpful. Somewhat touristy but also services the locals.

All sorts of good quality product to buy. Beautiful hand made genuine leather items. Bags, belts etc. Beautiful merino product. Postcards, books and many more. I got a gorgeous leather case for my glasses.

The service here was fantastic and the amount and variety of items for sale was huge.

Thinks for being so very helpful to us and being very knowledgeable on the products and the area.

If we had more time we would have gone to all the places you mentioned and possibly spent a lot more money.

Centrally located – you can’t miss this shop – especially with the vintage cars with a bull statue in it parked right outside the store. Such a wide variety of things to buy from the cute little “Cattle Dog” toys to hats, pannikins, books and souvenirs.

Friendly staff and reasonably priced souvenirs. Nice to have a look around. They even let us peek out the back to see the horses being saddled up for the stagecoach tour.

This store is full of beautiful things, leather goods, kitchenware, toys, materials, souvenirs, clothes and books etc. It is very expensive though.

So happy to hear you enjoyed the range of lovely things in our outback store. We aim to offer lots of choices at different prices to suit different budgets so we're sorry you found it expensive. Some of our ranges are specially made and very high quality, which adds to the cost, plus we don't have the advantage of huge bulk buys like chain stores. We definitely intend to give value for money and really appreciate visitors helping support our outback community by buying local while they're here.

The station store is full of tourist souvenirs from stubby holders, stuffed toys and kitchenware. Friendly, approachable staff. Some products a little overpriced but you come to expect this when you are in the outback. Great for a trinket to take home from your travels. Outback experiences booking place right next door. A one stop shop for all in Longreach.

Thank you for the review and thank you for shopping at our store. Sorry you found some items overpriced. I guess there are a number of reasons why costs might look a little higher on some items, from transportation costs to the high quality of some specially-made ranges. We do always intend to charge fair prices to much-valued visitors to the outback.

*Likely to sell out: Based on Viator’s booking data and information from the provider from the past 30 days, it seems likely this experience will sell out through Viator, a Tripadvisor company.
