We will meet tonight for a briefing about our adventure followed by a delicious vegan welcome dinner where we'll get to know our travelling companions (aka new friends).
Departing from Broome, our adventure begins with a visit to the famous Prison Boab Tree near Derby, which was once used to hold Aboriginal prisoners overnight. We then explore Lillimooloora Homestead, built in 1884, where the resistance movement to protect Bunuba traditional lands began in the 1890s.
Next, we venture underground at Dimalurru (Tunnel Creek), walking 750 metres through a spectacular limestone cave, wading through water and discovering stalactites and Indigenous rock art. The cave is also steeped in history, telling the story of Bunuba resistance fighter Jandamarra and his final stand.
As the day draws to a close, we return to our campsite near Windjana Gorge, where we can explore the gorge and watch the sunset illuminate its towering Devonian limestone walls, formed more than 300 million years ago. With the moon rising above the ancient landscape and millions of stars filling the night sky, it's a memorable place to spend our first night in the Kimberley.
Start the day with a relaxed stroll through Windjana Gorge, an ancient Devonian reef system and a deeply spiritual place for the Bunuba people. Take in the reflections on the water and look out for the gorge’s abundant birdlife and freshwater crocodiles, which can often be seen basking along the water’s edge.
We then travel through the spectacular Wunaamin Miliwundi (King Leopold Ranges), which form the southwestern edge of the Kimberley Plateau, before visiting Dalmanyi (Bell Gorge). Here, you can cross Bell Creek to reach the lower pool beneath the waterfall, a beautiful spot for a refreshing swim. We’ll also visit Imintji, an Indigenous community with a roadhouse, art centre and photo gallery.
Later, enjoy a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters of Manning River along the Gibb River Road. We’ll spend the night at our permanent campsite at Manning Gorge, right on the banks of the river, where you can relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
Wake up to the beautiful early morning reflections at Manning Gorge, a peaceful spot to relax and enjoy the scenery before setting off on the walk to spectacular Manning Falls. The walk begins on the opposite side of the river, where you’ll cross using a boat pulley system. At 7.2 km return this is the longest walk of our tour, but the spectacular tiered waterfalls and the opportunity for a refreshing swim make it well worth the effort.
Later, visit Galvan’s Gorge, an easy walk to a picturesque waterfall and swimming hole. Look out for the distinctive Boab tree, native wildlife and ancient Indigenous rock art as you explore this beautiful spot.
Return to our permanent campsite at Manning River, where you can relax, enjoy a swim in the crystal-clear water and unwind over a hearty vegan meal prepared for you by your guides.
Travel along our next section of the iconic Gibb River Road, a rugged 650 km 4WD route winding through the Kimberley’s spectacular ranges and river crossings. Today's destination is Home Valley Station, a welcoming oasis where you can explore the lush gardens, cool off in the swimming pool and discover the area’s rich history.
Home Valley Station also offers wonderful access to the Pentecost River, where you can look out for saltwater crocodiles, enjoy birdwatching and take in the incredible scenery.
Towering above the plains, the magnificent Cockburn Range rises 600 metres, its sandstone cliffs glowing red as the sun sets. As evening falls, enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and watch the moon rise and reflect across the river.
Cross the Pentecost River, an iconic experience for travellers along the Gibb River Road, before exploring the spectacular landscapes of El Questro Station. Follow a picturesque trail through the Cockburn Range to Emma Gorge, passing rock formations, natural pools and lush vegetation. Stop for a refreshing swim at the crystal-clear Turquoise Pool along the way, before reaching the Emma Gorge waterfall, surrounded by towering 120-metre sandstone cliffs.
In the afternoon, you can opt to join a Champagne and Chamberlain Gorge cruise, taking in the stunning scenery from the water as the sun sets (optional extra). After a day of exploring, return to camp at El Questro Station, where you can relax around the campfire and enjoy the company of your fellow travellers.
Begin the day with a relaxing soak in the thermal pools at Zebedee Springs, nestled beneath a canopy of lush tropical Livistona palms. The naturally warm water, around 28°C, makes this a wonderful place to unwind in a beautiful natural setting. Later, explore El Questro Gorge, following a trail between towering, fern-lined walls to a beautiful swimming hole surrounded by tropical vegetation.
Later the afternoon, explore El Questro, browse for souvenirs or enjoy a drink and some live music at the Swinging Arm Bar. At sunset we'll take in the spectacular colours of the Kimberley landscape with a short walk to Pigeon Hole Lookout.
Today, travel towards Kununurra, a town in the East Kimberley situated on the banks of the mighty Ord River, just 37 km from the Northern Territory border. For those wanting to see more of this spectacular region, optional scenic flights from El Questro offer the opportunity to admire Mitchell Falls, an impressive series of tiered waterfalls on the Mitchell Plateau.
On arrival in Kununurra, discover the region’s connection to agriculture and the Ord River, and explore local art galleries showcasing the work of talented Indigenous artists whose skills and traditions have been passed down through generations. In the late afternoon, head to Kelly’s Knob Lookout for sweeping views across the town, waterways and surrounding ranges as the sun sets.
Discover the waterways and wildlife of the East Kimberley, home to the impressive 320 km-long Ord River. This important waterway supports a remarkable variety of native birds, fish and crocodiles, as well as providing water for the surrounding agricultural region. You may spot birds nesting along the riverbanks, freshwater crocodiles basking in the sun and, if you’re lucky, rock wallabies among the steep, rocky terrain near the river and its islands.
There is also the option to join a scenic cruise along the Ord River, taking in the abundant wildlife and beautiful landscapes. You can admire Lake Kununurra and its distinctive Elephant Rock, also known as Sleeping Buddha, before discovering Lake Argyle, an enormous reservoir created by the construction of the Ord River Dam. As the day draws to a close, enjoy the changing colours of the landscape and return to Kununurra for a relaxing evening at the campsite.
Continue the adventure towards Purnululu National Park, home to the extraordinary Bungle Bungle Range, a World Heritage-listed landscape famous for its distinctive orange-and-grey striped sandstone domes. On the way we'll cross the river again via the iconic causeway of Ivanhoe Crossing.
On arrival at the Bungle Bungle campground, settle into the campsite and prepare to explore this remarkable region over the next two days. For a truly unforgettable perspective, you can opt for a scenic helicopter flight over the beehive-shaped domes, revealing the scale and patterns of this unique landscape from above. As night falls, enjoy the peaceful surroundings and spectacular Kimberley night skies, where minimal light pollution allows millions of stars to shine brightly.
Spend the day exploring the extraordinary landscapes of Purnululu National Park and the Bungle Bungle Range. Walk among the distinctive beehive-shaped sandstone domes, with their striking orange and grey bands, and discover the park’s remarkable natural formations. Visit Piccaninny Creek Lookout and Cathedral Gorge, a spectacular natural amphitheatre renowned for its towering rock walls, unusual formations and impressive acoustics.
Another highlight is Echidna Chasm, a narrow gorge where the towering sandstone walls rise up to 200 metres and, in places, the passage narrows to just two metres wide. The cool shade and dramatic rock formations make this a memorable place to explore. After a full day discovering the wonders of Purnululu, return to camp for another night beneath the magnificent Kimberley sky.
Travel through the Kimberley to Halls Creek, a town with a fascinating history shaped by its traditional Aboriginal owners, the gold rush and the region’s cattle stations. Discover Old Halls Creek and visit China Wall, an unusual natural formation of white quartz that stretches across the landscape. We'll also visit Yarliyil Art Centre, supporting local Indigenous artists and their work.
Continuing to Fitzroy Crossing, where we’ll spend our final night at a private outback campsite. Experience the simple pleasures of outback camping, with a campfire, an open sky and the sounds of nature all around you.
Begin your final day with a guided tour of Danggu (Geikie Gorge), an ancient Devonian reef system carved by the Fitzroy River over millions of years. Admire the impressive limestone walls, shaped by floods and the passage of time, and look for fossils embedded in the rock. Keep an eye out for freshwater crocodiles basking along the gorge walls and brolgas feeding in the surrounding grasslands.
After exploring the gorge, travel back towards Broome along the Great Northern Highway, passing the Kimberley’s distinctive Boab trees along the way. Arrive in Broome in the late afternoon, where the tour comes to an end near the iconic Cable Beach. After 13 days of spectacular landscapes, wildlife, cultural discoveries and shared adventures, it’s time to say goodbye to your fellow travellers and take home wonderful memories of The Kimberley.
