John, I was also on Ando's tour to Lightning Ridge and Byron Bay in 1993. Ando was running the tours then and we did a lot of the same things; gold panning, the sheep ranch, horseback riding, opal mining, etc. It sounds like his son has kept the best sites like the Glengarry Hilton and all the interaction with the locals as well. We had a great trip and I am glad to see it's still running.
