The trip

The Kimberley highlights, in twelve days

A shorter take on our most popular trip, for travellers who still want Mitchell Falls, the Mitchell Plateau rock art and the best of the Gibb River Road gorges.

It follows the Adventurer route with a few shorter stops, so you experience the best of the Kimberley in twelve days — including Purnululu, Kununurra, El Questro and Mimbi Caves on the way back to Broome.

  • Mitchell Falls
  • Munurru rock art
  • Bungle Bungles
