In the morning, we will hike up East Mount Barren. Then, we will drive along the coast until we reach Esperance, where we will take a look around this remote town for a bit. Today, we will get to see some of Australia's most beautiful scenery. This area of Western Australia has 9 national parks, including the most spectacular of all, Cape Le Grand National Park, where stunning blue seas mix with powder white beaches and secluded bays that allow for stops and swims. We will set up camp just steps from the beach. We will enjoy some lunch before taking the rest of the afternoon to explore this amazing area at our own leisure. We will camp here for the night.

Today, we will wake up early to take a walk down by the beach. Then, we will leave Cape Le Grand National Park and head to Frenchmen's Peak, which provides stunning views of the bay and islands of the Rechercher Archipelago. After this, we'll enjoy lunch before heading back through Esperance and north to the Eyre Highway to head east to our camp for the night.

Today, we will travel through the diverse Australian countryside, stopping to look around Eucla, an old telegraph town buried by sand dunes. We will stop for the night at the Koonalda Homestead. The reality of Nullarbor will really hit us: this huge expanse of karst limestone has many hidden secrets including the largest underground lake system in the country, which is the destination for many international divers who come here to explore this unique landscape. Tonight, we will camp without electricity, toilets, or showers. Be prepared!

Today, we will see the majestic Nullarbor Cliffs and stop at the famous wombat/camel/kangaroo road sign as we cross the Nullarbor. Driving onto Nullarbor Plain, we will cross the dingo fence while traveling through Yalata aboriginal lands. In the afternoon, we will head to the Ceduna Arts and Cultural Center, where we will learn more about the different styles and meaning behind many forms of indigenous art. After a short stop in Streaky Bay for supplies, we will head to Coodlie Park bush camp in the afternoon, where we will spend the night.

This morning, we will head out to swim with sea lions and dolphins at Baird Bay, a pristine coastline and sanctuary for a multitude of land and sea animals. This optional experience is available to us for an additional $150 per person, and lasts 3-4 hours, leaving a lasting memory for the rest of our lives. After lunch at Baird Bay, we will visit Murhpy's Haystacks, incredible granite rock formations sculpted into wondrous, weird shapes over the course of millions of years. Then, we will head to Talia Caves and the Lake Newland Sand Dunes to try sand boarding.

This morning, we will travel toward Elliston to drive along the amazing coastline and take one last look at the amazing cliffs in the bight at Locks Well. For lunch, we will go to Port Lincoln, where we will also get some time to explore. After this, we will head to Mikkira Station, where we will be camping for the night at a private campground with koalas in nearly every tree. We'll have some time to take a walk around the property and see some Giant Yakkas and spot some koalas in the Manna Gum.

In the morning, those who are feeling particularly brave will have the opportunity to take a tour to see a Great White Shark, which includes video highlights of the experience. For those who do not wish to be quite extreme, we can alternatively head to Whalers Way Conservation Park for some spectacular, stunning coastlines. If we are lucky, we will see some kangaroos and emus in this privately owned flora and fauna reserve. This drive is followed by a walk to Lincoln National Park to have a relaxed lunch and perhaps a swim, followed by a visit to the Glen Forest Wildlife Park to see more of these animals up close and even hand feed them. We will head to our camp in Port Neill for the night.

Today we will head through Whyalla and into Port Augusta, until we reach the Wadlata Cultural Center which will help explain the formation of Nullarbor, the Flinders Range, and the Australian continent as a whole. Then we will head to the southern Flinders Range, stopping at a place called Mount Remarkable National Park for lunch and a walk through Davey's Gully. After lunch, we will hit the road one last time to head for Adelaide, South Australia's capital, where the tour will come to an end upon arrival. It is recommended that guests book a night for themselves at a local hotel; though there are no formal activities planned, sometimes the group likes to get together and reflect on the big journey they just finished over a meal and a few drinks. Please see "Departure and Return" for more detailed information regarding when to book departure flights.
