The Trip
We are big fans of extended trips that take small groups into remote areas, and this trip does exactly that. If you have the time this 14-day safari allows you to see more of the Cape, and with three layover days the time to explore some of these areas more thoroughly.
Two of the layover days are spent at the tip of Cape York, allowing you time to both explore the many features of this unique area, and also to just relax and enjoy yourself. Taking the trip across to Thursday Island is highly recommended. The third layover day is spent at Twin Falls, an outstanding scenic location
