Meet Craig and Meryl Eddie, founders of BOOBOOK


Founded by ecologists, Craig and Meryl Eddie, Boobook Explore shares a deeper understanding of the many fascinating aspects of Roma and the Carnarvon Ranges.

As passionate about the local community as they are about the ecosystems, the Eddies and their team can speak knowledgeably about the interrelationships between the environment, agriculture and local industry.

Craig (sometimes referred to as Queensland’s David Attenborough!) has worked in the region for more than two decades, travelling to little-explored corners and mapping the habitats of flora and fauna. Both he and Meryl also work as consultants, contributing to best-practice environmental standards in managing the land. (For more information about our consulting business, please visit the Boobook Ecological Consulting website.)

Whether you have a half-day in Roma or time to delve deeper into the surrounding region, you’ll discover a new world that is rich with the colour of Australian life.

Outback Queensland – an adventure awaits…

Take this opportunity to see parts of Outback Queensland that very few people have had the opportunity of seeing. Your exclusive access to thousands of acres of private property is only a stone’s throw away from BOOBOOK’s headquarters, located in the township of Roma in Southwest Queensland. Roma itself is an hour’s flight or easy six-hour drive from Brisbane. Our commitment to ecological preservation and sustainable tourism affords us access to private properties that are usually off limits to tourists. You’ll have access to some of the most stunning vistas and perfectly Australian panoramas off the beaten path.

Sustainable tourism – keeping Australia pristine

Join the Australian Tourism Industry by experiencing Australia’s outback in its pristine, natural and uninterrupted state with Boobook Explore. Your tour with Boobook won’t be overloaded with tourists, as we keep our groups small to ensure plenty of time to soak in the atmosphere, explore and ask questions of our guides. Environmental preservation and sustainable ecotourism are critical elements of our ethos. Your visit in Outback Queensland should be an authentic, natural, awe-inspiring experience and we intend to keep it that way for future generations.
