Our classic 10 day voyage is an immersion into an ancient and inaccessible land. Covering more than 400,000 square kilometres, yet home to just 30,000 people, it is a place acknowledged as one of the world’s last, and most beautiful, wilderness areas. It is a place of magnificent vistas created by towering rock ridges, silent secluded gorges, wide savannah plains, and plunging waterfalls which defy both nature and belief. This is a land steeped in ancient Aboriginal culture and the legends of our pioneering past.
