Southern Experience Tour
- Darwin to Broome Outback
I really enjoyed the hikes into the different gorges. This is an excellent tour if you enjoy bushwalking along rough terrain over rocks & swimming across rivers & don't mind roughing it camping with very basic facilities & travelling long distances on rough roads to see the different places. The guide planned the walks to suit the weather & environment choosing sady walks for the afternoon & walking early in the day on hikes likely to be hot later in the day. Plenty of chances to swim along the way in lovely pools in beautiful gorges..
Travel Western Australia your way
For hikers seeking raw natural beauty, Western Australia delivers exceptional walking experiences. The Cape to Cape Track offers a perfect mix of coastal and forest trails - you'll walk along limestone cliffs, through towering karri forests and past pristine beaches between Cape Naturaliste and Cape Leeuwin. Our travelers particularly enjoy the morning tea stops at historic Ellensbrook homestead and cooling dips at Gracetown's sheltered bay. In the Kimberley region, multi-day treks take you deep into ancient gorge country where you'll wade through Tunnel Creek's cave system and swim in Bell Gorge's crystal-clear pools. The walks range from moderate coastal paths to more challenging gorge hikes, with most tours providing comfortable camping arrangements under star-filled outback skies.
Explore a wide diversity of coach / bus tours through Western Australia. We have 11 adventures that vary from 3 days to 15 days. With the greatest number of departures in September, this is also the most popular time of the year.
For travelers seeking real wilderness adventures, Western Australia's explorer tours deliver exceptional experiences. Our most popular 7-day Perth to Exmouth route combines desert landscapes with marine encounters - you'll walk through the limestone formations at Nambung National Park, swim with manta rays at Ningaloo Reef and watch wild dolphins approach the shore at Monkey Mia. Our customers particularly love the knowledgeable guides who handle everything from wildlife spotting to evening campfire meals. The tours include a mix of hostel and camping stays, which our younger travelers say creates great social connections. What stands out in reviews is how well-planned the long driving days are, with plenty of stops at hidden spots like Shell Beach and the ancient stromatolites.

Based on what our travelers tell us, Autopia Tours hits the mark with their guides - Linda, Wokka and Jason get mentioned a lot for really knowing their stuff and making everyone feel welcome on tour. The accommodation quality isn't always consistent though, and some tours have strayed from the planned schedule. There was a bit of drama when Aussie Wanderer had to close down, but TourRadar stepped in quickly to help affected travelers find new tours. Those customers ended up pretty happy with how it all worked out and enjoyed the replacement tours they booked. The guides seem to be the real strength here - they keep getting genuine praise from people who've done these tours. But if you're considering booking, just know the hotels can be hit or miss, and the daily plans might need some flexibility. [Note: I've kept the key facts while making it flow more naturally, mixed in practical insights about what this means for potential bookings, and maintained a professional but conversational tone throughout.]

Popular Western Australia Cruise Ships
Best places to start your Western Australia tour
Perth kicks off most Western Australia tours - 56 of our routes start from the capital. Broome's pretty popular too with 17 tours leaving from there (you can thank Cable Beach and its pearl-diving heritage for that), while Darwin starts 11 different journeys heading south through the outback. Looking at our booking patterns, you'll want to lock things in about 81 days before you plan to go, especially if you're keen to see whale sharks at Ningaloo or catch the wildflowers in bloom. Our travelers typically spend 10-14 days exploring the region, and winter's a smart choice for nice weather and fewer crowds. When you head into the remote spots, our local guides come prepared with supplies, safety know-how and tips for finding the best wildlife photo spots and authentic cultural experiences.

If you're after a quick Western Australia getaway, our 3-day tours pack in quite a lot. The Southern Experience takes you from Perth through the Valley of the Giants where you'll walk high up among massive karri trees. There's time to check out Albany's history and the wild coast at Torndirrup National Park before heading to Wave Rock. Our guests really like how the tour mixes nature and local culture - one recently told us how their guide Patrick made even the long drives interesting with stories about the area. We've also got something different with our Margaret River yoga escape that brings together beach walks, meditation and local food. You'll sleep in bell tents at a permaculture farm, do morning yoga by the ocean and taste wines at small biodynamic vineyards.

A week on the road lets you really get into Western Australia's coastal beauty and outback spirit. The Perth to Exmouth route is a hit with younger travelers who love meeting dolphins at Monkey Mia and snorkeling at Ningaloo Reef. You'll sandboard down desert dunes, walk through Kalbarri's red gorges and cool off in hidden waterfalls. Our guides get lots of praise for knowing their stuff and keeping the energy up during long drives. People tell us they love the social vibe at bush camps and hostels, though some mention upgrading rooms is worth it if you like your comfort. We've also got a northern route to Broome that adds pearl farms and Indigenous cultural experiences to the coastal spots.

Ten days gives you that sweet spot between exploring and taking it easy. On our Perth to Exmouth and Karijini route, you'll see how different Western Australia's landscapes can be. The first part takes in coastal spots like Monkey Mia's dolphins and Ningaloo's reefs, then you head inland to the ancient red gorges of Karijini National Park. Our travelers really appreciate having two nights in key spots like Exmouth and Karijini. The guides know their stuff - they're great at spotting wildlife and sharing Indigenous stories about the land.
Demographics
Our 6-7 day Perth to Exmouth routes hit the mark for solo travelers; there's this nice balance of group time and doing your own thing that makes it easy to meet people. The social side really comes alive at spots like Monkey Mia, where everyone gathers to see wild dolphins before choosing extras like snorkeling with manta rays or taking glass-bottom boats at Ningaloo Reef. We mix hostel stays with camping nights, which our solo guests say is perfect for making friends on the road. The guides know how to keep things flowing on those long drives, picking good stops at Shell Beach, the Pink Lake and also the Kalbarri gorges.
The 8-day west coast tours work really well for couples who want comfort with a bit of adventure mixed in. You'll catch your own lobster in Kalbarri one day, then wind down watching the sun drop into the Indian Ocean the next. Our couples like how we balance guided activities with free time at places like Monkey Mia - join the morning dolphin watching, then choose between walking the beach, taking an evening boat trip or just relaxing by the water. The rooms get good marks too, especially at spots like Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort where you're right there for wildlife viewing and also creature comforts.
The 7-day coastal routes blend marine life, desert scenes and social moments that young adults consistently praise. Travelers connect with wild dolphins at Monkey Mia, before heading to Ningaloo Reef where they choose between snorkeling with manta rays or exploring from glass-bottom boats. Between hostel stays and camping nights, natural friendships form while the long drives are punctuated with stops at Shell Beach, the Pink Lake and other hidden spots. The three-day Margaret River section sets a different rhythm, combining coastal walks and yoga practice with explorations of biodynamic vineyards. Our guides maintain smooth momentum as groups move from sandboarding desert dunes to walking through Nambung National Park's limestone formations and cooling off in Kalbarri's red gorges. The Perth to Exmouth routes prove especially suitable for solo travelers and groups, offering adaptable activities and relaxed evenings around campfires.
Out on the west coast we've got some excellent tours that work perfectly for seniors, blending comfort with authentic experiences. The 8-day coastal journey lets you watch dolphins glide past at Monkey Mia, taste local wines in Margaret River and then explore fascinating limestone caves, all at a relaxed pace that suits you. Our older travelers give great feedback about the 4-day Albany tours with their well-paced schedule - you'll discover the ANZAC Memorial Centre, take easy walks through the Stirling Ranges, and enjoy peaceful cruises on Nornalup Inlet before returning to quality lodgings each evening. What sets these tours apart is their mix of gentle activities, like the Valley of the Giants treetop walk, alongside laid-back visits to wineries and local food producers. The guides on our 6-day Karijini tours earn particular praise, as they help each guest find walking routes that match their abilities while making sure everyone experiences the ancient gorges and crystal-clear swimming holes. Places like Bullara Station add a touch of genuine outback spirit without giving up any comfort - guests start their mornings with fresh-baked scones and wind down their evenings gazing at stars around the campfire.
Families exploring Western Australia really get their money's worth in the Kimberley region. Our 5-day family tours mix up camping at Windjana Gorge, cooling off in quiet spots like Galvans Gorge and checking out Aboriginal art at Norval Gallery in Derby. Parents tell us their kids get stuck into all the hands-on stuff - they learn about the old Boab Prison Tree and take dips in Manning Falls after walking the bush trails with our guides. What keeps coming up in feedback is how good our guides are with children - they share local stories in ways that keep the kids interested while making sure everyone's comfortable with both the daily activities and also the camping.

What's the best way to see Western Australia beyond the cities?
You'll find amazing natural areas like Karijini National Park and Ningaloo Reef just waiting to be explored. Most visitors either join 4WD tours take their own vehicle or hit the hiking trails its really up to your style. If you want something organized our 6-Day Karijini and Ningaloo Explorer takes care of everything combining awesome hikes with refreshing swims in Karijini's gorges.
How can visitors experience local Aboriginal culture?
There's some really authentic Aboriginal cultural experiences around WA where you can check out ancient rock art hear traditional stories and try bush tucker. The Kimberley's great for this especially around Fitzroy Crossing with the Darlgunya Cultural Walk. Carnarvon's got the Gascoyne Aboriginal Centre and there's some fantastic First Nations galleries like the one in Northampton. Our guests love the Didgeridoo Dreaming Night Tour and meeting Nhanda and Malgana people at Monkey Mia its actually part of our 8-Day Boutique tour. For families the Kimberley Family Holiday includes this great stop at Norval Art Gallery in Derby where kids get creative with their own artwork.
What are some hidden gem routes through Western Australia?
The Gibb River Road's probably the most famous 4WD adventure you'll find it cuts right through the Kimberley with these incredible gorges and rugged landscapes. Then there's Indian Ocean Drive which is perfect if you want to do your own thing it takes you past some amazing spots like the Pinnacles Desert in Nambung National Park and that stunning Pink Lake at Hutt Lagoon the coastal views are just incredible.
Which amazing places in WA don't get the crowds they deserve?
Lesueur National Park's this incredible spot north of Perth with over 820 different wildflower species its stunning but not many people know about it. Chapman Valley's another hidden gem with these beautiful heritage buildings and amazing wildflower displays. Northampton's got this wonderful mix of 19th-century architecture and a First Nations gallery that's really worth checking out. And Mullewa wow the wildflowers especially the unique Wreath flowers are just incredible but it stays pretty quiet even during peak season.
