Travelling with Travelmarvel, Heritage Expeditions offers the opportunity to explore the Kimberley by small ship, with itineraries taking you deep into a landscape of dramatic gorges, ancient Aboriginal rock art, cascading waterfalls, tidal rivers and extraordinary marine life.
And this is where the Kimberley really comes into its own.
Rather than simply sailing past the scenery, expedition cruising allows you to get closer to it. Zodiac excursions, shore landings and guided exploration can reveal parts of the Kimberley that are impossible to appreciate from a conventional cruise ship. Depending on your itinerary, you may encounter spectacular locations such as Montgomery Reef, Horizontal Falls, King George Falls, Prince Frederick Harbour and the Mitchell Falls.
Why Choose a Heritage Expeditions Kimberley Cruise?
Heritage Expeditions brings an expedition philosophy to the Kimberley, with the emphasis firmly on exploration rather than simply getting from one port to another. Small-ship cruising means a more intimate experience, while expedition-style activities provide opportunities to venture ashore and explore the landscape.
For travellers comparing Kimberley cruise deals, this is an important distinction. The ship is effectively your floating base camp, allowing you to wake up somewhere spectacular and spend each day exploring a different part of the region.
It is particularly appealing to travellers who value wildlife, nature, photography, Aboriginal culture and genuine adventure, without wanting to sacrifice the comfort of a well-organised cruise.

BlueSun Travel Insight: The Kimberley isn't a destination where bigger necessarily means better. For me, the real attraction of an expedition cruise is the ability to get into the places that make this region so special. The ship gets you there; the Zodiacs and expedition team get you closer.
