Australia Like You’ve Never Seen it Before!

It’s an untouched paradise – a bucket-list destination combining awe-inspiring landscapes, dramatic waterfalls, pristine beaches, outstanding wildlife, and ancient culture. We’re talking The Kimberley, a region of Western Australia filled with adventure yet, traditionally, so hard to reach. Now, Grownups Holidays makes it possible to see this jaw-dropping destination for yourself while travelling in comfort, staying in first class accommodation, and experiencing the best in fine food and drinks.

Whether you’re journeying solo or with company, your informative guides will be with you every step of the way on this 13 day, 12 night adventure. Plus there are loads of opportunities to forge new friendships with your fellow like-minded travellers. So forget the long haul travel, the language barriers, the endless visas and money exchanges, and discover a region of Australia few ever get to see. If it sounds like your cup of tea, then here’s what ‘The Kimberly’ for GrownUps is all about:

On your ‘Jewels of the Kimberly’ adventure, you can expect to see this astonishing land via a range of exciting travel options including seaplane, helicopter, and motor boat, not to mention a comfortable coach well equipped to deal with the river crossings and rugged roads you’ll encounter. There’ll be the opportunity to swim in protected waters, including from a floating pontoon as well as in the crystal-clear Zebedee thermal springs. You’ll be invited to enjoy a walking tour to the incredible Mitchell Falls (discovering the rarely seen Gwion and Wanjina rock drawings on the way), and be informed by environmental researchers who work to protect the wildlife you’ll be watching out for on your adventures.

Best of all, although the Kimberly is wild, back-to-nature country, by night you’ll be accommodated in some of the most luxurious accommodation you could ask for. From deluxe safari suites with ensuite bathrooms and generous balconies, to comfortable outback stations, unique tented cabins, and country club comfort, your expectations are met with comfort at every turn. Expect picnic lunches, relaxing drinks around a sunset campfire, and resort restaurant dining. The landscape may be some of the most untouched you’ve ever seen, but the hospitality is second to none.

On your Kimberly journey, you’ll come face to face with the towns and astonishing geographical features you’ve always heard about but never thought you’d get to experience. Your adventures will take you to Broome, renowned for its stunning beaches and rich history (including the not-to-be-missed Boab Tree Prison). You’ll see for yourself Purnululu National Park and the strange Bungle Bungles, a striking range of beehive-shaped rock formations once covered with a mighty river. You’ll marvel at the awe-inspiring natural sties to be discovered in Kimberley’s 700,000-acre wilderness park, El Questro. You’ll get to see it all via a 90minute cruise through the mighty Chamberlain Gorge – a 3 kilometre-long fresh-waterhole bounded by towering escarpment.

The Kimberley is a land of vast stations where thousands of cattle roam across more than a million acres, and your tour places you in the very heart of the action when you overnight at one of these remote locations. Mitchell Falls, one of the most talked-about wonders of the Kimberley is on your agenda, and after you’ve experienced it on foot and by air, you can wind down with a quiet swim in a palm-fringed creek. Your Kimberly tour concludes in Darwin where a thoughtfully planned afternoon of leisure allows you to take your time discovering this Northern Territory city.

The ‘Jewels of the Kimberley’ really is a tour like no other. Far enough away to feel like you’re in a truly undiscovered part of the world, yet close enough to home to pop back on a relaxing flight of just a few hours. If you’re looking for a tour combining comfort and adventure, check out The Kimberley – it’s an unforgettable experience, an opportunity to forge new friendships, and an up-close and inspiring holiday destination to an Australia you’ve never seen before!
