The Darwin <> Broome 9 Day 4WD tour

This tour has unique temperature, activity, and operational considerations not experienced elsewhere in Australia. The Kimberley is one of the most isolated, remote places in the world. It doesn't have the usual comforts and options of our other touring areas. We think this lack of conveniences is the REAL reason to visit this area and is what makes it so special and memorable for a lifetime. This tour is suitable only for FIT AND ACTIVE people. Most people traveling on this trip are aged 18-50. It is not suitable for children.

Adventure Tours reserves the right to assess the fitness capability of passengers prior to tour departure. Tour is not suitable for children. Due to the remote nature of the Kimberley region we use bush camps with limited facilities on some nights.
