the city as it is today and also learn from a local expert about the involvement and history of
the bombings of Darwin. We conclude the tour at Stokes Wharf with a visit to the Royal Flying
Doctor Service Tourist Facility. This unique facility highlights the magnificent service provided
to Outback Australia by the RFDS and also showcases the Bombing of Darwin through Virtual
Reality headsets – an amazing experience! We have a few hours to relax and enjoy the resort
facilities before we transfer to Stokes Hill Wharf for our fantastic dinner cruise on Darwin
Harbour. What a wonderful way to start our tour, as we see the Darwin skyline at sunset.
Lunch at own expense and arrangement
OVERNIGHT: DoubleTree by Hilton Esplanade, DARWIN
DAY 3 Thursday 12th August, 2021
LITCHFIELD NATIONAL PARK
This morning, we travel south to the small township of Adelaide River - about 110kms from
Darwin. We make a brief stop at Adelaide River War Cemetery, where 432 servicemen and
63 civilians, all of whom died as a result of Japanese bombing raids, are buried. From here we
enter Litchfield National Park.
The 65,000ha National Park with its untouched rainforests, hot springs, magnificent waterfalls
and stunning scenery has gained the reputation as the jewel of the Northern Territory’s
crown. We stop to see the Magnetic Anthills and the magnificent Florence Falls from the
lookout platform. We enjoy lunch at the Litchfield Cafe and visit nearby Wangi Falls where
there is time for a refreshing dip! - so bring your togs! Returning to Darwin, we have some
free time to pack up our bags before watching another sunset as we enjoy dinner at Cullen
Bay. It won’t be a late night as we begin our road journey tomorrow.
OVERNIGHT: DoubleTree by Hilton Esplanade, DARWIN

DARWIN TO KAKADU
With an early start, we say farewell to Darwin and travel the Arnhem Land Highway to World
Heritage Listed Kakadu National Park. Our first visit on our way to Kakadu is the Jumping Croc
Cruise - don’t forget to bring your camera! Further along, we enter the wonderland of Kakadu
National Park. This afternoon we visit the Warradjan Aboriginal Cultural Centre before
joining our magical 2 hour Yellow Water Sunset Cruise. Nowhere else will you see such a
concentration of so many species of diverse wildlife than here, including Brolgas, Egrets,
Jabiru and hopefully some crocs!
OVERNIGHT: Kakadu Lodge Cooinda, KAKADU

KAKADU TO KATHERINE
We begin our day’s touring with a visit to Nourlangie Rock and its ancient Aboriginal rock art.

pool is called for!

DAY 6 Sunday 15th August, 2021

Sheer walls of sandstone dotted with ancient Aboriginal rock art surround the crystal waters
of the Katherine River where freshwater crocodiles can be seen along the banks. Back in
Katherine, there’s time to purchase lunch and take a look at the township. This afternoon we
have a choice - relax at the resort or come with us to unwind in the therapeutic crystal clear
waters of the Katherine Hot Springs (32oC). The main pool has wheel chair access, stainless
steel rails and the walls have been formed out of rock.
Lunch at own expense and arrangement
OVERNIGHT: Knotts Crossing Resort, KATHERINE 
DAY 7 Monday 16th August, 2021
KATHERINE TO KUNUNURRA
Today we travel west calling at Victoria River and Timber Creek, crossing into Western
Australia to arrive at Kununurra. The town was established as the residential and
administrative centre of the Ord River Scheme - a huge irrigation scheme that was developed
in the 1970’s. We take a look at the town centre, the Diversion Dam and Ivanhoe Crossing.
We also visit Mirima National Park, often called Hidden Valley. The sandstone formations
here resemble the domes of the famous Bungle Bungles (Purnululu National Park), which is
why they are sometimes called Mini Bungle Bungles - it’s a perfect opportunity to get an “on
ground” experience! We then check into our next three night’s accommodation.
OVERNIGHT: The Kimberley Grande, KUNUNURRA
DAY 8 Tuesday 17th August, 2021
KUNUNURRA AND ORD RIVER
This morning we have the opportunity to take a scenic 2 hour flight over the Bungle Bungles
(Purnululu National Park). This flight is optional and is an additional cost. Highly
recommended!! Not flying? Then you can enjoy a sleep in! Mid-morning, when the flyers
return, we drive towards Lake Argyle, stopping enroute to visit the Argyle Homestead
Museum. The famous pioneering Durack family home became known far and wide as one of
the social gathering places of the East Kimberley. The homestead was originally built in 1895
by the Durack family on Argyle Downs Station (now mostly submerged by the lake). During
the early 1970’s the homestead was removed before Lake Argyle began to fill in. Dismantled
like a giant jigsaw, the homestead was carefully rebuilt in its current location and now lives on
as a museum dedicated to the pioneering spirit of the Durack Family. We travel on to Lake
Argyle where we enjoy lunch at the Tourist Village. One of the many highlights of our tour to
East Kimberley will be our cruise this afternoon with Lake Argyle Cruises. Take in the
untamed landscape of the magnificent Carr Boyd Ranges we cruise through some of the lakes
90 islands and inlets. Hopefully we’ll see Rock Wallabies, Crocodiles, Wallaroos (Euros) and
Birdlife, plus a Catfish feeding frenzy and the amazing spitting Archer Fish. We stay out on the
water in an ideal setting to catch the last golden rays of the Kimberley sun – the first of many!
We return to Kununurra for a slightly later dinner.
OVERNIGHT: The Kimberley Grande, KUNUNURRA 
DAY 9 Wednesday 18th August, 2021
ZEBRA ROCK MINE
The Kimberley is one highlight after another and today is no exception as we head to the
Zebra Mine. Lunch will be freshly caught Silver Cobbler and they say the lunch hits a 10 on
the “fish ‘n chip-odometer”!! We’ll take a tour of the mine then enjoy our afternoon tea. It’s
now time to board our Wetlands Cruise; the wetlands are situated on the eastern side of Lake
Argyle where the many creeks feed into the dam. We’re sure to see a huge variety of birds,
Ospreys, brolgas, cormorants, ibis, egrets, darters, corellas, herons, whistling ducks, magpie
geese, sea eagles – just to name a few! We might see a few Johnston freshwater crocodiles
too. How does some champagne and nibbles sound as we watch the sun set over Lake
Argyle? After dinner we head back to Kununurra – it will be quite late, but what a fantastic
day!
OVERNIGHT: The Kimberley Grande, KUNUNURRA
DAY 10 Thursday 19th August, 2021
KUNUNURRA TO HALLS CREEK - ARGYLE DIAMOND MINE
We’re on the road again as we travel to the Argyle (Jaliwang) Diamond Mine, the world's
biggest diamond producer and the source of the extremely rare and valuable pink diamonds.
This will be a ‘bucket list’ adventure, as the mine faces closure in 2021 as the supply of
diamonds is dwindling. At the Argyle Security Gate a traditional landowner guide will check us
through the security for an unforgettable tour through the mine, from the processing plant to
the open pit and explain how these beautiful diamonds are mined. We’ll also visit the
diamond shop - perhaps buy a diamond directly from the mine - and to the gallery that
outlines the history and show an extraordinary display of size and coloured diamonds. After a
tour and lunch in the mess hall, we drive to Halls Creek, site of Western Australia’s first gold
rush, on the edge of the Great Sandy Desert.
OVERNIGHT: Kimberley Hotel, HALLS CREEK
“... view prehistoric creatures in their natural
environment swimming around the billabong and
relaxing on the banks as we cruise past…”

As we continue west through the magnificent red mountain scenery of the Kimberley’s, we
have a brief stop at the Yiyili Aboriginal Community to view their gallery. After our break, we
continue to Fitzroy Crossing where we enjoy lunch at the Lodge. This afternoon travel out to
nearby Geikie Gorge where we take a cruise through this spectacular landscape. The Fitzroy
River has carved its path through the fossil "Barrier Reef" formed 300 million years ago,
resulting in mountainous cliffs and breath-taking scenery.
OVERNIGHT: Fitzroy River Lodge, FITZROY CROSSING
DAY 12 Saturday 21st August, 2021
FITZROY CROSSING TO BROOME
Our destination today is Broome, but on the way, we see the famous Boab Prison Tree,
7 miles south of Derby, which was used in the early days as an overnight lock up for
prisoners. Have your photo taken in front of the longest Cattle Trough in the Southern
Hemisphere. Back on the highway again, we can purchase our lunch at the Willare Bridge
Roadhouse before the last leg of our journey into Broome. Broome is situated on the coast at
the southern tip of the Kimberley region. It is bounded by wide sandy beaches and turquoise
water and enjoys a warm climate with plenty of sunshine. The discovery of rich pearling
grounds off the coast in the 1880s led to the foundation of Broome township in 1883. By
1910 Broome was the world’s leading pearling centre. We check into our next three nights
accommodation.
Lunch at own expense and arrangement
OVERNIGHT: Oaks Resort, BROOME
DAY 13 Sunday 22nd August, 2021

seeding of a live oyster shell. Lunch is included and we also enjoy a cruise aboard the Willie
Wanderer. There’ll be more time to relax back at the hotel before dinner this evening.

OVERNIGHT: Karratha International Hotel, KARRATHA
DAY 17 Thursday 26th August, 2021
KARRATHA TO EXMOUTH
In nearby Dampier we visit the North West Shelf Visitor Centre. The centre will give us a good
explanation of the gas extraction, liquefaction and exporting process on the Burrup Peninsula
production. Passing through the Pilbara we make our way south west towards the North West
Cape. As we travel along the North West Coastal Highway we have Ningaloo Reef running
along the coast to our right. We pass Giralia Station – a large (265,000 hectare) and very
isolated farm which runs approximately 25,000 sheep, before arriving into Exmouth, famous
for its annual fishing competition and location of a jointly operated Australian/USA Naval
Communication Station.

EXMOUTH
We have an easy day planned today. We tour Exmouth and its surrounds and view the Harold
Holt Base, the Vlaming Lighthouse (where we usually spot some whales), Exmouth Beach
and the Communications Towers (one taller than the Empire State Building). Also today we
visit Yardie Creek Station which is now a part of the Cape Range National Park. We enjoy a
unique and informative cruise on Yardie Creek with a park ranger. We return to the Potshot
Resort for some free time to swim, relax etc. from mid-afternoon.
OVERNIGHT: Potshot Hotel Resort, EXMOUTH
DAY 19 Saturday 28th August, 2021

accommodation in Monkey Mia.
OVERNIGHT: Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort, MONKEY MIA DAY 21 Monday 30th August, 2021
MONKEY MIA TO KALBARRI
Hopefully this morning we can experience some close encounters with the dolphins as we
stand in the clear waters and entertain them. This is one of the few places in the world where
wild dolphins come to shore regularly to be hand fed. Later this morning, we drive to
Denham before re-joining the North West Coastal Highway to travel south over the
Murchison River. We divert from the Highway through Kalbarri National Park to picturesque
Kalbarri, our home for two nights.

“The Bluff” for views of the treacherous coastline and over the Kalbarri Township. This
afternoon, we visit Rainbow Jungle where we can wander through landscaped tropical
gardens, past waterfalls, fountains, gargoyles and lily ponds. We will enjoy close encounters
with black, red and yellow local white tailed Cockatoos and don’t be surprised if you hear
them say “hello”! We then have the rest of the afternoon to relax at the resort.
Lunch at own expense and arrangement
OVERNIGHT: The Edge Resort, KALBARRI DAY 23 Wednesday 1st September, 2021
KALBARRI TO CERVANTES
An early start this morning, taking the coastal road south we stop for magnificent views along
the cliffs before re-joining the highway. On our arrival in Geraldton, we take a look at the
local sights including the port area and the St. Francis Xavier Cathedral and the HMAS Sydney
Memorial. We continue south through Dongara stopping briefly for a photo opportunity of
the Greenough Trees - this area is characterised by river red gums which have given up
defying the prevailing winds and bent themselves almost parallel to the earth in an attempt
to escape the salt and the wind blowing off the Indian Ocean. From here, we travel along the
coast to the town of Cervantes. Cervantes is the access point to the truly remarkable
Nambung National Park. This afternoon, we visit the Park - home to Western Australia’s
Pinnacles. Like a moon scene, strange looking limestone pillars, some
2 metres tall. We then return to Cervantes for dinner and our overnight accommodation.
OVERNIGHT: Cervantes Pinnacles Motel, CERVANTES
DAY 24 Thursday 2nd September, 2021
CERVANTES TO FREMANTLE

the Australian bush has to be seen to be appreciated. We visit the Museum and the New
Norcia Hotel. This afternoon we make our way to Fremantle to our accommodation for the
night.
OVERNIGHT: Esplanade Hotel, FREMANTLE
