Itinerary
Welcome to Broome! Or Rubibi, in the language of the Yawuru people, who are the Traditional Owners of the land on which Broome is now located. Start your adventure straight away, setting off early this morning as you travel to the renowned ‘Boab Prison Tree’ and the start of the iconic Gibb River Road. Set up camp in Windjana Gorge National Park and enjoy lunch before heading to Dimalurru (Tunnel Creek) – a cave system carved through the Napier Range – to discover stalactites and a large variety of wildlife. Learn the legend of Jandamarra – an Aboriginal freedom fighter who used the tunnel as a hideout in the late 1800s. Towards sunset, you’ll arrive at your campsite for a delicious campfire dinner under the famous Kimberley night sky.

In the afternoon, relax, swim and play games by the Manning River before your group gets the campfire going for dinner and marshmallow toasting.
