Experience the wild beauty of Western Australia and the Northern Territory on a journey where every day tells a different story. Begin in Perth, a relaxed coastal city of sunlit beaches, leafy parks, and riverside charm, where the pace of life invites you to pause, wander, and feel at home.
Next, venture to Sal Salis, a remote eco-camp on the dunes of Ningaloo Reef, where the desert meets the sea. Snorkel vibrant coral gardens, swim alongside gentle whale sharks, and fall asleep beneath a sky ablaze with desert stars—an intimate encounter with one of the world’s most extraordinary marine landscapes.
Fly north to Broome, a town steeped in pearling history, framed by red cliffs and the golden sands of Cable Beach at sunset. From here, explore the Kimberley’s raw wilderness at El Questro, where gorges, thermal springs, and rugged escarpments create a landscape both dramatic and deeply alive. Then escape to Kimberley Coastal Camp, an exclusive retreat reachable only by air or sea, where ancient rock art, teeming marine life, and barefoot luxury combine for an experience unlike any other.
Cross into the Northern Territory for a safari-style stay at Bamurru Plains, where floodplains shimmer with life and wildlife moves freely across the landscape. Conclude your journey in Darwin, a tropical city pulsing with markets, waterfront sunsets, and Indigenous culture—an invitation to connect with both the land and the people who have called it home for millennia.

WHERE YOU'LL STAY
NORTHERN TREASURES
DAYS 1-6: Perth & Ningaloo Reef
Days 1-3: Perth & Rottnest Island
Arrive in Perth and step into a city that radiates warmth and sunshine, the perfect starting point for your Australian journey. Rottnest Island deserves a full day of exploration - "Rotto" is a world apart in just a short ferry ride from the city. Turquoise bays glisten, soft white sands invite bare feet, and car-free roads allow relaxed cycling. Swim in hidden coves, snorkel over vibrant reefs, meet the island’s famously friendly quokkas, and take in sweeping coastal vistas that linger long after the sun sets.
Days 3-6: Ningaloo Reef
Arrive at Sal Salis, where the desert, sea and luxury combine, defined by peace and the rhythm of nature. Your eco-camp on Ningaloo's dunes allows complete disconnection - wake to the sound of waves lapping the shore, surrounded by untouched coastline as far as the eye can see.
The true highlight of Ningaloo is the chance to share the ocean with the reef's gentle giants, the whale sharks. Expert spotters lead you into the water, experiencing the quiet wonder of sharing the water with these amazing creatures. Between sightings, snorkel vibrant coral gardens and savour a gourmet lunch on deck, then head back to camp for sundowners over the dunes and stories shared around the campfire.

DAYS 6-14: The Kimberley
Days 6-8: Broome & Horizontal Falls
Touch down in Broome, where the fiery red of the Kimberley meets the turquoise sweep of the Indian Ocean. The highlight is soaring by low-level scenic flight to Horizontal Falls, skimming the rugged cliffs and sparkling waters of the Buccaneer Archipelago. A fast boat takes you for an exhilarating ride through the Falls, where
powerful tides surge between towering rock walls, creating a spectacle of nature’s raw energy.
Days 8-11: El Questro Wilderness Park & Purnululu National Park
Head further beyond the beaten track to El Questro, a vast wilderness sanctuary where towering red cliffs, dramatic gorges, and soothing thermal springs shape one of Australia’s most awe-inspiring landscapes. Every moment at El Questro feels like stepping into the true heart of the Kimberley—a place where nature and solitude are deeply intertwined. Don't miss the Bungle Bungles, one of the world’s most remarkable geological wonders, where orange and black striped domes rise from the desert like giant beehives.
Days 11-14: Mitchell Plateau
The call of the outback continues as you head more remote still to Kimberley Coastal Camp. Accessible only by helicopter or light aircraft, this barefoot-luxury hideaway rests on a pristine stretch of coastline. Spend your days exploring rugged sandstone islands, uncovering centuries-old Wandjina and Bradshaw rock art, or setting out on guided fishing adventures in waters rich with marine life. Wildlife is everywhere: sea turtles drift through crystalline shallows, birds wheel across the sky, and vibrant reef life shimmers beneath the surface.
