TRANSFER DAY - CP

Depart Darwin for Kununurra. This morning make your own way to the Darwin Airport for your transfer to Kununurra. The Flight takes 1 hour. When you arrive in Kununurra please make your way to Kimberley Land Holiday Park where you will join your tour group.

DAY 2 - NP

Today is a long day travelling to the famous
Bungle Bungles. We briefly stop out of Kununurra at the Lower Ord Irrigation Dam for some photos.
Our first comfort spot is at Turkey Creek (Warmun) for morning tea or an ice cream and to stretch our legs. We continue our journey to Purnululu
(Bungle Bungle National Park), driving for several hours via rugged 4WD-only access tracks. There is a lot more to the Bungles than the 400 metre high beehive-shaped domes, and this afternoon we will discover the delights of this wilderness paradise by venturing into Echidna Chasm after lunch. We make our way back to an experience never to be forgotten: a magnificent Bungle Bungle sunset.

DAY 3 - BC

This morning we start our exploration of the Bungles very early with an optional helicopter flight. Then we walk among the tiger-striped sandstone domes at Picanniny Creek to the spacious cavern of Cathedral Gorge. Ample time is allowed to experience and absorb this magnificent place.



This afternoon we head out of the Purnululu National park over bumpy 4WD tracks.
When we hit the bitumen again we drive on to our bush camp in the Bow River area.

DAY 4 - CP

We leave our bush camp this morning and make our way back to Kununurra for an afternoon at leisure. You can explore the town where Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman spent their spare time enjoying coffee and cake at the now famous "Book Cafe" during the shooting of the movie "Australia" in the East Kimberley. If you prefer to visit and explore the Aboriginal Galleries with some of the Kimberley’s renowned artists, you can, or you can just relax around the pool.

DAY 5 - CP

See Kununurra and its beautiful surrounds early this morning as we can take an optional plane flight over Lake Argyle, the world-renowned Argyle Diamond Mine and the Bungle Bungle ranges, before we head west, to tackle the Gibb River Road. Our target is the award-winning El Questro Station, where we will take a walk in Emma Gorge, before setting camp in the beautiful surrounds of this Million Acre Wilderness Park.

DAY 6 - BC

This morning enjoy a walk through, and a soak in, the palm-fringed Zebedee Hot Springs. Our next visit is to the magnificent El Questro gorge, where we can hike through to the halfway point for a refreshing swim, or for the more energetic, a trek to the end for the pristine waterfall. This afternoon we head west along the Gibb River Road, navigating through the stunning Pentecost Ranges, while crossing the mighty rivers of both the Durack and Pentecost, en-route to our bush camp in the Drysdale River Region.

DAY 7 - NP

Leaving the Gibb, we travel via the Kalumburu Road, stopping briefly at Drysdale River Station (a working cattle station), to take on fuel and supplies before stopping at King Edward River for lunch and a dip in the pristine waters. Then we make full use of our 4WD ability, as we head for the remote Mitchell Plateau, passing through forests of Livistonia Palms and some of the best views that money can’t buy.

DAY 8 - NP

Passing through forests of Livistonia Palms and some of the best views that money can’t buy, a full day is set aside to explore this spectacular area at leisure. A trek to Mertens Falls and then on to the famous Mitchell Falls will take you to one of the most remote places in the country. Plenty of time to swim, photograph and just absorb some priceless memories, as the Mitchell River cascades down, forming a massive 4-tiered waterfall. After a hard day's exploring and absorbing Mother Nature at her best we take a scenic flight back to our camp (flight included). You can upgrade your Taxi flight to a Mud Crab flight which takes in the lower Mitchell falls, the mangroves coast and glimpses of the Indian Ocean. Late afternoon we reluctantly leave Mitchell Falls, stopping along the way to view Aboriginal rock art, including Wandjina art and the mysterious Bradshaw paintings. Tonight we set up camp on the banks of the King Edward River.

DAY 9 - CP

This morning we head south, passing through cattle country and again meeting up with the Gibb River Road. We make our way to Manning Gorge where we will go for an exploratory walk. The first obstacle this walk presents is a swim over the river to join the walking path on the other side. Tonight we camp at Mt Barnett Station among the Barnett Ranges.

DAY 10 - NP

Our first stop today is for a swim at Galvans Gorge, where the warm water of the Isdell River falls down to form one of the most beautiful pools to be found. Sit back and enjoy the view as we travel through the King Leopold Ranges, some of the highest country in the region. Tonight we will camp in the Windjana Gorge National Park, where after dinner we will be able to spot some of the hundreds of freshwater crocodiles that call this paradise home.

DAY 11

This morning we explore by torchlight Tunnel Creek, 750 metres into the Napier Range and hideout of the outlaw Pigeon. We then re-join the Gibb River Road for the final leg of our journey, and head to the south of Derby to the Boab Prison Tree. It is here we hit the bitumen and make our way to the Pearling township of Broome, where your tour guide will drop you at your accommodation, sadly ending a memorable adventure.
