Quality
This indicates the overall quality of the tour operator's products. A low rating does not mean it is not good - it just means that it does not include as much, or perhaps is of a more standard quality than the higher quality tours. For example, a 3 star quality rating means that it is a more standard/economical tour, while 5 stars is a very luxurious tour that often includes a lot of amenities. -

Day
1Welcome to Broome
Roll into Broome, a town born from pearls and now famous for sunsets that stop you in your tracks. Once you arrive, it’s all about settling into the coastal rhythm. Cable Beach is the main event, a huge stretch of sand where you’ll see everything from walkers to camels and even 4WDs cruising the shoreline. Find your spot, kick off your shoes and let the Indian Ocean do its thing. Prefer a drink with your view? Head to a waterside cafe, order something cold and toast the day as the sky turns gold, pink and deep orange.
Accommodations: Cable Beach Club Resort & Spa -
Day
2Broome Free Time
You’ve got your bearings, now you get to choose your own Broome day. Stroll Cable Beach, browse pearl boutiques or soak up the colour and energy of Chinatown. If you’d like to go behind the scenes, you can join an Optional Experience to a pearl farm to learn how these gems are cultivated and why Broome’s pearling history matters. Or keep it simple and slow, with great coffee, warm breezes and plenty of time to explore at your own pace. Your Travel Director will have tips on where to wander, what to taste and where to catch the best light.

3Broome - Port Hedland
Today the Pilbara puts on a colour show. As you travel, you’ll see rich red earth streaked with mineral deposits and wide-open landscapes that feel wonderfully untamed. It’s a big-distance day, so settle in and watch the scenery shift. By late afternoon you’ll arrive in Port Hedland, home to the world’s largest bulk export port and a place that plays a huge role in Australia’s resource story. Tonight is about resting up and recharging. The adventure continues tomorrow with more remote beauty and some of Western Australia’s most dramatic natural settings.

4Port Hedland - Karijini National Park - Tom Price
Welcome to Karijini, a frontier landscape where the earth looks like it’s been carved by giants. Your day weaves into the national park to reveal gorges that plunge deep, waterfalls that tumble from escarpments and turquoise rock pools that shimmer in the sun. These geological wonders took billions of years to form and you’ll see it in the red layered cliffs, termite mounds and soaring gum trees. Karijini covers around 630,000 hectares in the Hamersley Range, making it WA’s second-largest national park. It’s raw, remote and seriously unforgettable as you explore before settling in around Tom Price.

- Breakfast
- Dinner
Accommodations: Tom Price Motel -
Day
5Tom Price - Karratha
After Karijini’s rugged heartland, you’ll journey back towards the coast, travelling through tough Pilbara terrain where mining and nature sit side by side. Your destination is Karratha, known for its major role in the resources industry and its gateway position to the stunning north-west coastline. Along the way, you’ll stop to visit the Red Dog statue, a true Aussie legend with a wandering heart. Hear the story of this canine larrikin and why he became famous across the region. Tonight, enjoy a more coastal feel and a chance to reset before you head for the Ningaloo Coast next.

6Karratha - Exmouth
Big kilometres today, but the reward is worth it. Travel along the World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Coast towards Exmouth, the gateway to one of Australia’s most famous reefs. As you roll in, the focus shifts firmly to the ocean, whether you’re planning to swim in it, cruise over it or simply admire it from shore. Your accommodation is only metres from the waterline, giving you front-row seats to the North West Cape’s coastal views. This is where the outback meets the sea and it feels like a proper reset. Tonight, watch the light fade over the water and get excited for tomorrow’s choices.

7Exmouth Free Time
Today is all about making it your kind of day. Depending on the season, Ningaloo Reef is home to whale sharks and humpback whales and you can snorkel with them on a Optional Experience, with ethically minded operators. It’s one of those bucket list moments that leaves you feeling humbled and buzzing at the same time. Prefer to stay dry? Choose an Optional Experience sunset cruise and keep watch for dolphins and breaching whales. Or keep it simple with a barefoot stroll along the sand and a slow afternoon by the water. Whatever you choose, Ningaloo serves up coastal magic without trying too hard.
- Meals Included:
- Breakfast
Accommodations: Mantarays Ningaloo Beach Resort -

8Exmouth - Carnarvon
See Ningaloo’s underwater world without getting your hair wet. Cruise in a glass-bottom boat at Coral Bay’s marine sanctuary as your guide points out colourful coral, turtles and fish. More than 500 species call this protected patch of ocean home, so there’s plenty to spot. Then swap reef life for space history at the Carnarvon Space and Technology Museum. It’s a surprisingly fascinating stop, with Carnarvon’s role in tracking missions including the 1969 moon landing. You’ll tour the collection and pick up stories you won’t expect in a town like this. Tonight, settle in and enjoy a quieter evening after a big day of contrasts.

9Carnarvon - Monkey Mia
Today’s sights are straight out of a nature documentary. Start at Hamelin Pool, home to the world’s most abundant colony of stromatolites, often called ‘living fossils’. These ancient life forms offer a glimpse of what Earth was like 3.5 billion years ago. You’re now in World Heritage-listed Shark Bay, with more than 1,000 kilometres of beaches, including the dazzling Shell Beach. The white shoreline comes from billions of tiny shells, layered deep and stretching for miles. Then it’s onto Monkey Mia, where red dunes, clear water and relaxed vibes set the scene for your next stay.

10Monkey Mia Free Time
If Monkey Mia didn’t win you over last night, today will do the job. Early morning is dolphin time, with wild resident dolphins often visiting the shore to splash in the shallows. It’s a special moment and a brilliant way to start the day. After that, your schedule is wide open. Swim, stroll, relax or explore more of Shark Bay’s coastal beauty. You can also chat with your Travel Director for tips on how to spend the day, whether you want easy beach time or something a bit more active. However you do it, today is made for slowing down and soaking it all in.

11Monkey Mia - Geraldton
Travel south with a stop in Kalbarri National Park, known for dramatic gorges, towering coastal cliffs and a sky-high viewpoint at the Kalbarri Skywalk. It’s a great spot for a photo and a reminder of how wild this coastline can be. In spring, the region can burst into colour with wildflowers blanketing parts of the countryside. Later, arrive in Geraldton and take time to reflect at the HMAS Sydney Memorial, paying tribute to the 645 Australian sailors lost off the WA coast during WWII. It’s a moving stop that adds depth to the day before you settle in for the night.

12Geraldton - Perth
Did we save a showstopper for late in the trip? Possibly. Visit Nambung National Park to see the Pinnacles, a surreal field of limestone structures rising from the sand, some up to 3.5 m (11.4 ft) high. Then head to Yanchep National Park for a MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience with an Aboriginal guide. Learn about native plants, Dreamtime stories and the way Country was shaped. You’ll get hands-on with tools, hear the didgeridoo and enjoy cultural insights that bring the landscape to life.
