10-Day Perth to Adelaide Adventure Tour

About this tour

This 10-day camping expedition traverses Western Australia's southern coast from Perth to Adelaide, combining coastal swimming, dune exploration, and national park walks. You'll sleep under stars in swags and bush camps, wake to red earth sunrises, and travel by minivan through Esperance and across the Nullarbor Plain. Days blend beach time with wildlife encounters—kangaroos at Lucky Bay, koalas at sanctuaries—plus Aboriginal cultural experiences and stargazing on some of Australia's clearest nights. All meals, activities, and transport included; a driver-guide leads the way.

Highlights

• Wade into Lucky Bay, kangaroos lounging on the sand beside you
• Cross the Nullarbor's endless ochre plains and limestone cliffs
• Sleep under unpolluted skies in remote swag camps
• Hike through national parks with pristine coastlines
• Meet koalas and local Indigenous guides sharing country knowledge

What to expect

You'll spend eight nights in swag tents (basic shelter, communal facilities) and one night bush camping with minimal amenities. Mornings start early with breakfast before heading out; lunch happens on the road or at beaches. Afternoons rotate between swimming, short walks, and wildlife spotting. Your guide handles driving and camp setup. Evenings centre on shared meals and conversation around the campfire. The pace is steady but active—expect 2–4 hour hikes, beach time, and long driving days. Accommodation is rustic; showers and toilets are basic. This suits travellers comfortable with simplicity and ready for genuine outback rhythm.

Good to know

Moderate fitness required; spinal or cardiovascular issues may not suit this tour. Bring sun protection, sturdy walking shoes, and layers for temperature swings. Mobile coverage is patchy across remote sections. Public transport exists near the route if you need to leave early. Sea lion and dolphin swims require direct inquiry and may incur extra costs.
