Wonders of the Pilbara and West Coast

Perth knows how to ease you into a trip. It’s a capital city, sure, but it also has a laid-back side, with colourful laneways, creative street art and loads of green space to balance things out. Join your Travel Director for a city tour, then stretch your legs in Kings Park and Botanic Garden, where wildflowers and native plants spread across 400 hectares above the Swan River. Right in the middle sits the Anzac Memorial, a peaceful spot that stops you in your tracks. Later, meet your fellow travellers over dinner and get ready for the adventure ahead.

Talk about starting on a high - your adventure kicks off at Nambung National Park’s Pinnacles, a surreal landscape where thousands of limestone spires pierce the sky. These formations rise from the sand like a natural art installation, and the whole place feels delightfully otherworldly. By the time you reach Geraldton, there’s one more stop that leaves a mark: the HMAS Sydney Memorial, honouring the 645 Australian sailors lost off the WA coast during WWII. Then discover the rest of the seaside town at your own pace, wandering the foreshore or visiting the cathedral.
