Cape York tours are the pinnacle of Australian outback adventures! Since the original tour in 2015, the itinerary has improved each year, with many exciting new tours and activities, with a few special tweaks by Rossy, based on his experience as an Ecologist and local in Cape York.
They head up inland and make their way back home through the coastal roads of Cape Tribulation. You will visit the most iconic, well-known places of Cape York including a full-day experience of Thursday Island with Peddells (includes Ferry ride over plus Air-conditioned Bus Tour), a night in Coen to witness one of Cape York’s best dance teams, jump on a boat tour to spot crocs and birds with Western Cape Eco Tours in Weipa, swim in the most refreshing waters at the beautiful Fruit Bat Falls and of course, to top off your adventure, celebrate reaching the tip with their unforgettable true blue sunset sausage sizzle at the Tip of Australia!
They have friends all through Cape York and a very close Indigenous mate from Coen welcomes them to country with a traditional smoking ceremony, one you’ll never forget! The trip of a lifetime…they’ve heard clients say those words before!
