The session length is 7 days.
A maximum of 36 passengers.
Day 1-Your welcome aboard the magnificent True North will be amidst the untouched wilderness that
surrounds the Hunter River. Our light aircraft will transfer you from Kununurra to the spectacular Mitchell
Plateau. Here you will join your first flight in the air-conditioned/leather seated luxury of our Bell 407
helicopter. After flying over the iconic Mitchell Falls you will begin to explore the Hunter. The Hunter
River is about as far away as you can get in Australia, and your transfer to the True North will be over a
stunning river system that is lined with dense mangrove forests, surrounded by rainforest encrusted
mountains and home to man-eating crocodiles.
Day 2- The Mitchell River is renowned for big barra and even bigger crocs! The expedition boats will head up river to the scenic Surveyors Creek - a great place for a swim (no crocs here!) The fishermen will join the hunt for the elusive barramundi and, there will more opportunities for helicopter flights over an ancient
land! Then, join the crew for cocktail hour before experiencing another unique dinning experience
complimented by a leisurely cruise to Vansittart Bay.
Day 3- Today you will have an opportunity to see the Bradshaws - ancient rock art that pre-dates other examples of Aboriginal culture. In fact, they are possibly the oldest paintings known to man. The heli-picnic at Eagle Falls is always a big hit- another breathtaking helicopter flight and, our mouth-watering fare alongside a picture-perfect waterfall in remote far-north Western Australia! We also visit an isolated site in the rainforest where a lone bomber crashed during WWII.
Day 4- This morning we fish and explore the Drysdale River. Then it's a short steam to yet another mighty Kimberley river- The King George! Then our journey upstream will take us to the very jewel in the crown -The King George Falls! Here we anchor at the base of the Twin Falls and you will find endless places to explore! Climb, or take the helicopter, to the top of the falls for a cruise highlight!
Day 5- This morning we'll slip quietly away to visit Koolama Bay, here we'll learn about the wreck of the Koolama and enjoy a short walk to a plaque erected by a relative of one of the survivors. At Tranquil Bay we go ashore for a relaxing beach walk and some shell collecting before continuing onto the Berkeley River.
Day 6- Again, fishing and exploring opportunities unfold all day. Then, all too soon, it will be time to take advantage of the high tide and to make for the Cambridge Gulf - the final leg of our voyage and, our final destination the frontier port of Wyndham!
Day 7- Your courtesy coach will arrive at approximately 8:00 am for transfer to Kununurra.
