Australia's Kimberley: Voyage to the Outback
September 12, 2013 - September 26, 2013Priced from: $10,980
This Western Australia expedition takes you to The Kimberley, one of the most remote and captivating regions on earth—a land of towering cliffs, plunging waterfalls, ancient cultures, and exotic wildlife. The 100-passenger Caledonian Sky easily navigates the mighty rivers and tiny inlets of the region throughout your Kimberley adventure travels. During numerous excursions throughout this Western Australia tour, travelers enjoy striking scenery and unusual wildlife—by boat, Zodiac, and helicopter explore the region’s hidden treasures—narrow gorges, shallow tributaries, and cascading waterfalls. Your Western Australian adventure travels take you to the remote Tiwi islands, where you’ll witness the cultural traditions of the Tiwi people, gaze upon the dramatic gorges and pools of Mitchell Falls, search for an astonishing variety of wildlife in the Prince Regent Nature Reserve, discover forests of bizarre boab trees, and photograph the sublimely beautiful isles of the Buccaneer Archipelago.
