Australië
4WD-safari door nationale parken en ware outback
Kampeeravontuur West-Australië
A
vontuurlijk en actief ingesteld, optimaal willen genieten van de natuur en een goede conditie? Dan is dit de reis voor u! U reist per 4WD bus in een internationale groep met een ervaren, Engelssprekende chauffeur/gids en helpt mee met koken en tenten opzetten. Bezoekers van West- en Noord-Australië zijn betoverd door de dolfijnen, het snorkelen boven de koralen van het Ningaloo Reef, rode gravelwegen door de verlaten en uitgestrekte outback en door de nationale parken met wandelmogelijkheden door indrukwekkende kloven.
Het kamperen draagt bij aan de natuur ervaring. U overnacht op permanente campsites en op enkele plaatsen zetten we onze tent op in bushcamps. De veelzijdigheid aan nationale parken en de ruigheid maakt het westen een bijzondere plek. Karijini staat bekend om zijn steile, rode kliffen en watervallen. Heerlijk om te wandelen en daarna een verfrissende duik! De Gibb River Road leidt ons als een rode ader dwars door de Kimberley, één van Australisch uitgestrekte wildernis-gebieden. Voel de magie van Australië tijdens een wandeling in Windjana Gorge, als de ondergaande zon met haar zachte licht op de wanden schijnt en de kleine zoetwater krokodillen massaal op de oevers van de rivier liggen te zonnen. ’s Avonds wisselen we verhalen uit bij het kampvuur en bewonderen de uitbundige sterrenhemel.
Dwars door de outback, slapen in een tent, eten bij het kampvuur, hoe dicht bij de natuur wilt u zijn?
SuggestieWe kunnen ook een 3-daagse Kakadu tour toevoegen aan deze reis. Van Darwin naar Perth duurt deze reis 22 dagen.
