Yes, definitely family orientated, the actual crossing will be anywhere between 400 and 700 km totally dependant on what is organised later down the track (higher fuel economy than normal)and obviously the cost of getting to the star point and back home from the end) you could work the distances out....there are heaps of info online about average fuel economies for the crossing. (We are coming from Perth and taking 3 weeks to get there do the crossing and get home).will be a trip you would never forget.
