| APT confirms Kimberley

THE APT Travel Group (ATG) has confirmed its Kimberley Expedition season will commence in Jun aboard Caledonian Sky within Western Australia.

With capacity for only 99 passengers, Caledonian Sky is excluded from the Australian Government’s ban on larger cruise ships.

ATG has updated its COVID Safe policies, which have been developed with experts from around the world including Respond Global founder Ian Norton, formerly of Cruise Lines International Association.

Travelling between Wyndham and Broome, many of the cruises are coupled with 4×4 touring throughout the Kimberley, staying in ATG’s lodges.

The season will operate from Jun to Sep with high demand and very limited availability still remaining.

Further itineraries beyond the Kimberley will be announced shortly and next year’s departure dates are also now on sale.

“Over the past 12 months, the APT Travel Group and the travel industry have been navigating an extraordinary environment, unlike anything seen before,” said Australian Pacific Holdings Managing Director Chris Hall.

“Over the last few months we have operated touring programs across the country and now we are pleased to commence our expedition season in the Kimberley.

“Australians are keen to travel and we have exceptional experiences ready and waiting for them to enjoy.”

Hall said the return to operating ATG’s touring and expedition holidays is a “tremendous outcome” for guests, travel agency partners, staff and crew.
