With fewer than one person for every 1,000 square
kilometres, Australia's last frontier is showcased
at its best on an epic 4WD adventure. Once a stock
route in the 1960s, the mighty Gibb River Road with
its numerous attractions provide the main artery
that flows through the Kimberley's true heart.

and explore the wonders, from stunning Mitchell Falls
to the striking Bungle Bungle Range. Along the
way, stay at the region's best stations and resorts.
Enjoy an in-depth discovery of the pearl town, Broome,
getting up close to unique wildlife, learning about
pearl cultivation and taking an iconic camel ride along
