The Kimberley gets under your skin, its spirituality and rugged beauty swirling into your heart with the same intensity as its ochre-red dust finds its way into everything. There are so many exquisite experiences it is impossible to choose a favourite. Soaking in the idyllic clear, palm fringed thermal waters of Zebedee Springs, soaring over the Mitchell Falls in a helicopter and taking in the vastness of the landscape, mesmerised by the colours of the setting sun over the Bungle Bungle Range in Purnululu National Park and bumping down the legendary Gibb River Road to Tunnel Creek and Windjana Gorge. All unforgettable, and all easily done with APT Luxury Travel.
Even staying in one of APT’s exclusive network of wilderness lodges, all perfectly placed for exploring the remote Kimberley region, is a delight. Dine under the stars and stay in private tented cabins with ensuites and hot showers – there is no roughing it here.

All In The Family
For almost a century, APT has been delivering unforgettable travel experiences to guests. We love that it started out as just one vehicle to transport people during the tram strikes in Melbourne in the 1920s. It went from one bus to two, to 10, and now is Australia’s largest family-owned tour and cruise company, delivering cherished holidays that take in every corner of the globe.
APT Luxury Travel has pioneered a diverse and ever-increasing range of touring and cruising styles and also offers private air tours. Guests can expect timeless luxury, exclusive experiences and life enriching moments, many courtesy of APT’s Tour Directors and Expedition Team members who prove to be almost as popular with guests as the destinations themselves. They are the perfect travel companions, drawing on their wealth of knowledge to ensure the best experience possible.
We love that guests can choose the travel style that best suits them! Some go slow. Some go faster. And sometimes they even mix a travel style or two into the one journey. Cleverly, APT sometimes offers multiple travel styles in the one destination, ensuring the experience is perfectly aligned with why guests want to go, their interests, and fitness level.

APT’s Signature Experiences are stand-out moments that offer an experience not normally available to independent travellers. These exclusive or unique events deepen the experience, going beneath the surface of local history and natural beauty. An example is discovering the beauty of Mitchell Falls with its tiered waterfalls and Indigenous rock art. Swim in the pools above the falls then take an included helicopter flight over the falls and the surrounding wilderness.
