Overview

Ten days, one direction, Broome to Perth. This Adventure Tours Australia trip starts at the Broome Visitor Centre at 7:30am on Day 1 and finishes in central Perth at about 6pm on Day 10, covering the Pilbara, Karijini, the Ningaloo coast, Shark Bay, Kalbarri and the Pinnacles along the way. You travel in an air-conditioned 4WD with a guide who stays with the group for the whole journey.

The first half is the remote stretch: Eighty Mile Beach, a first night in the Pilbara, then Karijini National Park with its gorges, waterfalls and swimming holes, including Weano, Hancock and Dales Gorge. From there the route runs south through Exmouth, where you choose between a whale shark swim (optional, at extra cost) or time in Cape Range National Park, then Coral Bay and a free day on Ningaloo Reef. The rest of the route continues down the coast: Shell Beach, an overnight at Monkey Mia with the wild dolphin experience, the stromatolites at Hamelin Pool, Kalbarri's Murchison Gorge and Nature's Window, the pink lake at Port Gregory, and the Pinnacles before rolling into Perth.

Sleeping is split between four nights of camping with facilities and five nights in hostels. Most meals are covered: nine breakfasts, ten lunches and nine dinners. It is a long overland journey, so be ready for plenty of time on the road between stops.

What To Expect From The Tour

This is a long overland trip with camping, hostels and a lot of road time between highlights. A few practical points are worth sorting before you book.

Empty highway running straight toward the horizon between low scrub
  • Pack light and soft. A strict 15kg limit applies, in one small to medium soft bag or backpack, no hard cases, plus a daypack that fits inside the vehicle. Oversize luggage is not allowed. Bring or buy an all-season sleeping bag, since one is required for the camping nights.
  • Meals mostly covered. Nine breakfasts, ten lunches and nine dinners are included, along with all national park entry fees. Alcoholic drinks and extra beverages are on you, as are optional activities such as manta ray encounters and glass-bottom boat tours.
  • Weather swings. The packing list spans hiking shoes, warm clothing, long sleeves and beachwear. Sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses and a reusable water bottle are all on the list. Itineraries can shift with seasonal conditions, weather extremes or park and Traditional Owner requirements.
  • Optional extras. The whale shark swim is the big one, and it sits in the not-included column along with other optional water activities. Travel insurance is also excluded and strongly recommended by the operator. Plan a budget for these if you want them.
  • Plan the nights. Camping with facilities covers four nights and hostels cover five. The final night in Perth is not included, so book your own accommodation if you are staying over after the Day 10 finish.

Common issues. The honest constraints are length and rigidity: ten days of group travel from Broome, ending in Perth rather than returning, so it only works one way around. The 15kg soft-bag limit is strict, and a sleeping bag must be brought or purchased. Optional activities like the whale shark swim cost extra, and personal travel insurance is excluded even though the operator strongly recommends it. The listing also notes the itinerary can vary due to weather, seasonal conditions or park requirements, so specific stops are not guaranteed.
