FLIGHTS IN / OUT OF THE KIMBERLEY

There are daily flights in and out of Broome, Kununurra and Darwin. Due to the amount of schedule changes and the constantly changing prices of fares, we recommend that clients book their own flights. The cheapest fares are available on the websites listed below (available for purchase within a year of travel).

TELEPHONE RECEPTION

There is mobile phone reception in Broome and limited reception in Kununurra (not Optus). There is no reception along the Kimberley coastline - satellite phones are carried aboard each tour vehicle, but are very expensive to use and usually only used in emergencies.
