Good to know
This suits anyone wanting a cultural overview of Broome without committing a full day, or those who prefer afternoon activity. You'll need moderate fitness — mostly seated in the vehicle and at the beach, but some walking between stops. The sunset drinks component depends on decent weather; heavy rain or extreme heat could affect the beach portion. Infants must sit on an adult's lap and infant meals aren't provided, so factor that in if travelling with young children. Hotel pickup is optional; confirm your address at booking. Gratuities are not included in the price.
