Penny Wells has a passion for touring Australia second to none. With countless numbers of Long Haul Touring Trips under her belt, her enthusiasm for sharing some of the most gorgeous locations on this planet is infectious.
Finding herself at home in areas so remote that they aren't even named is what this lady lives for.

But not one to sit back and watch others, she will usually be found shoulder deep in the thick of it, and giving the boys one hell of a run for their money.

Born and bred in the Kimberley, Ronny brings his indigenous culture for us to see this country from a whole different perspective. Owner and operator of "Just Over The Hills" tag-along tours, Ronny is great fun to explore with. He's the first to put up his hand when it comes to leaving the main route and to push a track right into the Never Never. Whether it's bush tucker, or understanding an ancient culture, bush mechanics, or just playing pranks - Ronny fits right in the TODU spirit of adventure.

Adam's technical background in the 4wd industry and ability to sniff out a jaw dropping location ensures he fits right in around a camp fire anywhere in this big brown country.
Jimmy Moss - Series 1 & 6-8
To say Jimmy is passionate about four wheel driving would be putting it mildly. When the hubs are locked in, Jimmy is in his “happy place”. Coming from competition spec 4wd skills, this bloke can drive!
Best mate to Penny, they have shared over the years many adventures off screen. But now in front of the camera, Jimmy brings his fun, easy going nature to life. Touring in a tuff single cab Landcruiser 79 series, there is never a dull moment with Jimmy around!

Nikki - Series 4
Fun loving Nikki enjoy's a challenge so when we asked her to join us on an expedition, she jumped at the chance. Driving our trusty red Nissan through remote Australia, Nikki has valiantly proved that anyone can satisfy their inner travel bug and tour down under. To chillax Nikki loves nothing better than a sun bake on the beach and the splash of waves on her toes. Keep an eye out for Nikki in series #4 as she begins a journey like none other before!
Jodie - Series 2 & 3
Jodie Dalrymple brings an exciting new personality to the Discover Oz Crew. With a background in Sales, some may have thought she would be a fish out of water as a Four Wheel Driver Tourer.
But quite to the contrary, Jodie is a keen camper, and loves motorbike riding, and was quick to put her hand up to join her new hubby Jarad Dalrymple (camera 2) on the road and having a key role in filming the latest "Top of Down Under" series.
With no off-road experience to speak of but a strong love of everything outdoors, Jodie has became Penny's partner in adventure during series 2 and 3.
