10 nights · 25. August - 4. September 2027 · Broome → Darwin
Ten nights aboard Le Jacques Cartier from Broome to Darwin through the Kimberley wilderness. The 184-guest Ponant Explorer-class vessel is built for this region, with 16 Zodiacs, a helideck and the Blue Eye underwater lounge, where roads play almost no role. Tidal ranges of more than ten metres create reef cascades and saltwater falls found nowhere else. Rock-art galleries from 40,000 years of Aboriginal culture await beneath sandstone overhangs. Helicopter options take in the Mitchell Falls and the Horizontal Falls of Talbot Bay. Premium all-inclusive throughout.
