I would like to do this trip early 2026, say April 2026. Please advise what I need to do to secure a spot.

The price for your touring would be $5,275.00 for a single supplement room. If you would like to proceed, please proceed with the deposit payment so we can request your reservations.

I am interested in the Cape York Frontier (Fly / Drive) tour for myself and my Mum in August, and I was hoping you could help me with a few questions please. Firstly, does the tour cater to vegan dietary requirements? Secondly, can you please confirm if the tour departing on Friday 22nd August still has two spots available? And lastly, can you please advise if the accommodation listed on the itinerary includes ensuites, or if any have shared facilities?

The Vegan dietary requirements are able to cater within the tours. We will just take note of it for the booking. I can confirm to you that all rooms listed for the hotel are ensuite facilities. This tour needs you to fill out the Heritage Tours form. We will going to send you the form once you have confirmed your reservation.
