Shameem, the consultant looking after my enquiry, found me just what I was looking for and I am happy to say I am booked on a wonderful trip in Botswana and also Victoria Falls. A huge thank you.
Shameem is not only knowledgeable about the area and the tours available, she chatted to me and understood 'what I wanted' and that makes all the difference. I am delighted.

Day 1: Arrive Perth
Accommodation: The Richardson Hotel
Upon arrival in Perth you will be welcomed by your Cox & Kings representative and escorted to your hotel. The rest of the day is at leisure to explore Australia’s westernmost metropolis, enjoy the amenities of your luxurious hotel or simply rest up from your travels and prepare yourself for more adventures tomorrow.
Day 2: Perth
Meals: Breakfast
Accommodation: The Richardson Hotel
The sun-kissed city of Perth basks in glorious isolation from the rest of the country. The city’s glittering skyline is reflected in Swan River, which begins as the Avon River in the Darling Range, a little more than a hundred miles from Perth. Visit King’s Park and the Botanic Garden before traveling to Fremantle, which seamlessly fused its maritime and convict heritage to become a vibrant port city full of bustling markets and pubs.
Day 3: To Ningaloo Reef
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
Accommodation: Sal Salis
Fly to Exmouth today and on arrival board your scenic flight by charter aircraft to the historic Yardie Creek Station, a traditional sheep pasture that is now part of Cape Range National Park. Travel onward to your luxury camp, which occupies a remote, pristine site where the outback meets the reef along the Coral Coast. Bounded by the small fishing townships of Exmouth and Coral Bay, Ningaloo Reef is a jewel in Australia’s natural heritage with its white beaches and temperate waters. You’ll be staying in luxurious tented accommodations just steps from the beach and within a short swim of the multicolored coral reef that teems with marine life.
Day 4: Ningaloo Reef
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
Accommodation: Sal Salis
Enjoy the day at leisure. Do some snorkeling on the reef offshore and share the beautiful waters with huge schools of fish, reef sharks, manta rays and a multitude of other species. Or embark on a guided exploration of Mandu Mandu Gorge or Yardie Creek Gorge. Look out for black-footed rock wallabies, honeyeaters and emus while learning about the geology of the area. Marvel at the panoramic views from the tops of the gorges out across the wild land and the sparkling sea. Take a kayak to the Blue Lagoon to snorkel among soft corals, sponges, wobbegong sharks and hundreds of tropical fish. And don’t forget to leave some time to just relax and soak up the ambiance of your remote resort.
Day 5: To Perth

Depart Sal Salis today and enjoy the scenic flight by charter aircraft to Learmonth where you will board your domestic flight to Perth. Upon arrival, you will be escorted to your hotel for the evening.
Day 6: To The Kimberley

Accommodation: El Questro
Spanning the North West from Kununurra to Broome, the Kimberley has fewer people per square mile than almost any other place on earth.

Enjoy the next two days at leisure and choose from a variety of activities ranging from visiting El Questro Gorge and fishing for barramundi to exploring the Zebedee Springs thermal pools.
Day 9: To Darwin
