Cape York Peninsula Expedition
Introduction \| The expedition \| Cape York Slideshow
One of the last wilderness regions of Australia is our destination on this fantastic expedition where we travel through some of the world's most pristine waterways. We cross a dozen small creeks and rivers while we are on the far northern end of Cape York Peninsula and this is a welcome relief after we have traveled across wilderness areas that offer no facilities for the few travelers who visit this wonderful part of Australia. Many people make this expedition part of their plans for the future but far fewer ever actually undertake this journey. The cape has many hidden secrets that are not often obvious to the first time visitor so traveling with one of Global 4wd's experienced tour guides will assist you in seeing these places and unlocking many of the secrets of Cape York. Global 4wd trip leaders will make sure that daily travel times are not long and arduous while generally departing camp at around 8.30am and arriving at our night stop by mid afternoon. Our expedition leaders do all the food preparation, cooking and cleaning up so that everyone else has time to relax and enjoy their Cape York adventure. All camps have toilet facilities with showers or, at the very least, we set up a shower to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to hit the hay clean. Approximately one month before we depart on this trip of a lifetime we get together for a pre trip meeting to discuss our preparations for the expedition. In general we discuss vehicle requirements and preparation, spare parts needed, tyres, water, road conditions, camp sites, travel times, what to bring, vehicle to vehicle communications plus all other relevant topics relating to our trip to one of the most fantastic non tourist areas that Australia has to offer. We recommend that all travelers undertake a Global 4wd Sand and Bush 4wd course before they depart on this expedition. There is far more information discussed at the Global 4wd pre trip meeting so take the plunge and book with us for our next trip.
