AUSTRALIA'S ULTIMATE ROAD JOURNEY
The 10 Day Adelaide to Perth— Australia’s Ultimate Wildlife Experience travels through the Southern Flinders Ranges and onto the Eyre Peninsula. Get set for some real Aussie wildlife encounters! You have the opportunity to swim and play with Sea lions and Dolphins and we take you on a nocturnal wildlife tour to spot wombats, kangaroos and emu’s. You will have some extreme fun sand boarding of a BIG sand dune, you’ll learn to surf on a isolated and unspoiled beach! After spending a few days on the Eyre Peninsula with some amazing activities, the tour crosses the Nullarbor and arrives in Esperance. Esperance may seem like a metropolitan after spending a few days in the vast and ancient landscape of the real Australia! It’s time to do some walks and to relax on the beach in Cape Le Grande National Park. You might have to share the beach with some locals, Kangaroos that is!
After spending 2 days on this beautiful spot we head of to see the rest of the South-West in Western Australia. The tour travels along the coast line and to the Stirling Ranges. We visit the Tingle Trees and Kauri Forests before we make our way to the Margret River region and to Ngilgi Cave. In and around Ngilgi Cave we experience an amazing Koomal Dreaming Aboriginal Culture Exchange with Josh.

Operator Description:
Imagine a trip where you have the chance to encounter whales breaching below you, sea lions and dolphins swimming around you, kangaroos, emus, wombats, dingoes, and the majestic wedge tailed eagle in the native environment, hand feed wild tuna or get up close and personal with a Great White Shark! These are just some of the Wild encounters possible on a 6, 9 or 10 day journey across the great treeless plain of the Nullarbor between Adelaide and Perth. To the majority this raw and wild part of the great Aussie outback is seen as a boring and endless but to those in the know, this part of Australia offers a greater range of possible wildlife encounters in stunning and unique scenery than any other part of the country. The customers of Nullarbor Traveller are those in the know. They are the ones who smile secretly when others tell how they flew over the top because there is "nothing out there". Could anything be further from the truth! The Eyre Peninsula is one of those isolated gems that use this feature to a huge advantage. Lack of mass tourism means the wildlife in this region has remained wild and abundant and local hospitality is still warm and genuine. Flying over the top or taking the train? Now that’s boring. Discover the un-discovered on an ‘Adventure to wild places’!
