What to Expect
Complete with nearly three hours of flight time and plenty of natural and historical beauty to see, this Windjana Explorer day tour is the ultimate adventure.
Fly over the spectacular pindan cliffs and turquoise waters of Roebuck Bay before you head out and over the vast mangroves and wetlands of Roebuck Plains.
From here, take a look down at the Fitzroy River as you approach the Napier Range, mostly made from heavily eroded limestone, or karst, with the ridges composed of an ancient Devonian reef system.
On arrival at Windjana airstrip, meet your local guide and jump aboard your air-conditioned 4WD tour bus.
You'll then get to enjoy a walking tour through Windjana Gorge, where you'll learn about the spiritual significance of the gorge and closely observe freshwater crocodiles in their natural habitat.
After lunch served beneath the shady bloodwood trees, explore the 750m long Tunnel Creek that runs beneath the 350-million-year-old Devonian Reef System. You'll also get the chance to learn about the Bunuba people and hear the story of Jandamarra, the Aboriginal Warrior who hid out in the tunnel and led the Bunuba resistance against the oppression of the local Aboriginal people during the late 1800's. A trip to the historic ruins of Lillimooloora Police Station is also on the cards for you, which follows a stunning afternoon flight back to Broome.
All this adventuring will leave you with an appetite, so enjoy morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea - all inclusive in your ticket price,
