Expedition Cruise to Australia




In December last year if you are like me you would have been watching 'I'm a Celebrity get me out of here', based in the Australian outback. Didn't like the 'camp' but some of the scenic shots of the area are impressive, so I wondered if I could find a cruise in that area.
So how about this, take an Orion Expedition Cruise with their strap line of 'A Path less travelled'.

Launched in 2004, Orion Expedition Cruises has become the leading expedition cruise operator in Asia Pacific. In May 2011 they add a second ship to the fleet, Orion II which doubles capacity. They will soon have 2 small ships of about 100 guest capacity which give five star service, and being small can get into those far out places.

So how about this for a itinerary:-



Day 1 Darwin, Northern Territory
Day 2 Jaco Island
Day 3 At sea
Day 4 Wyndham (for Bungle Bungles)
Day 5 King George River and Falls
Day 6 Vansittart Bay
Day 7 Hunter River (for Mitchell Falls)
Day 8 Montgomery Reef Raft Point
Day 9 Talbot Bay/Horizontal Waterfalls
Day 10 Cape Leveque
Day 11 Broome, Western Australia

On most of the days some excursions are included, taking you to the Mitchell Falls for example on a Zodiac.

Now that would be an expedition to remember!
