4WD Roadtrip Gibbs River Road

4WD Kimberley Tours

For true and active adventurers, exploring the vast and ancient Kimberley region is an idyllic way to immerse for a relaxed pace. Truly soak in the serene moments by waterfalls and swimming holes, hike through majestic gorges and simply absorb the surrounding beauty each day at your own pace while immersing into a rich Aboriginal culture and history. With plenty of 4WD adventures, Onlyluxe Travel has customised 4WD tours in helping you choose your ultimate Kimberley roadtrip adventure.

 


 

The classic Kimberley 4WD itineraries can vary from 10-15 days travelling along the incredible scenery of the iconic Gibb River Road and onwards to take in all of the region’s famed attractions including Purnululu National Park (home of the Bungle Bungles) to more longer itineraries reaching the renowned Mitchell Falls. You’ll experience staying at iconic and historic outback stations such as El Questro and Home Valley Station while travelling diverse landscapes along the Great Northern Highway. Along the way discover small outback towns of Halls Creek, Fitzroy Crossing to exploring hidden gems of Geikie Gorge, Tunnel Creek and Windjana Gorge.

 

Guided group 4WD tours are a popular option to head off the beaten track with an experienced guide with a group of like-minded travelers. Others opt for an ultimate luxury of a private charter while staying at luxury lodges and retreats. For an ultimate and immersive outback experience a 4WD camping expedition is another way with already pitched tents or the simplicity of swag camping in picturesque locations.

 

Choosing your 4WD ultimately comes down to how much time and style of accommodation you prefer and whether group or a private tour is more you.

4WD Group Camping

For active adventurers for a truly immersive and authentic outback experience a 4WD doesn’t come any better than being paired with a camping adventure. Stay in dedicated luxury wilderness camps, safari tents and cabins or stations. Choose from participatory camping tours, where you pitch in to set up camp and prepare the evening meal, tours offering permanent campsites for some or all of your overnight stays, or tours allowing you to choose to upgrade your accommodation along the way. A fully supported and transport included adventure.
