Sounds of Silence will have you feasting on a gourmet barbecue buffet of authentic Australian delicacies including barramundi, kangaroo, emu, crocodile, bush salads and classic desserts, complemented by some of Australia's finest wines. Attention then turns to some of the world's best stargazing, as the resident 'star talker' takes you on an unforgettable tour of a spectacular southern night sky. As you wind down after a delicious dinner, you are offered a choice of tea, coffee or port, or in winter, savour a special treat of hot mulled wine.
