Join us on our inaugural holiday to beautiful Broome!
Broome is a coastal town where the red desert meets the turquoise sea. It is a place of rich history, cultural diversity and natural wonders.

and enjoy the local produce.

DINOSAUR ADVENTURE
This morning we step aboard Tutti Frutti, the purpose-built shallow landing vessel and enjoy a fully guided cruise with entertaining and informative commentary surrounding everything Broome. One of the highlights of this tour is standing in the perfectly preserved, 120-Million-year-old dinosaur footprints that are fossilised in rock on a secluded beach. Learning about the early Cretaceous period and the dinosaurs that stamped their mark on history will leave you bewildered. This specially designed boat allows you to disembark directly onto the beach and is the perfect boat to explore this intriguing coastline. This afternoon we have time to relax back at the hotel. Dinner this evening is at the hotel.
