In August this year, one of our escorted motorhome tours travelled 7,000 km along the diverse and beautiful route from Darwin to Perth and we have the highlights here to show you!
Starting up at the tropical and lush top end, they travelled through small yet significant inland townships on the way, explored the spectacular Kimberley region and onto the picture postcard turquoise coastline of WA.
Grab yourself a comfy spot, sit back and enjoy the highlights of our 35-day escorted tour from Darwin to Perth and see for yourself the stunning scenery on offer!
Having met their fellow comrades at the Darwin depot, they set off on their expedition and travelled through some of the most beautiful sights and scenery in Australia. These were just some of the spots they visited:
