Bigger is not always better in the cruising world. Our expedition ships are purposely built small, carrying just 99 guests instead of thousands so we can access shallow shorelines and remote coastal areas.

Each ship carries a fleet of inflatable Zodiac vessels to get you close to where the action happens. Our expedition ships cruise along the varied parts of Australia's coastline, making use of Zodiacs every day to reach remote locations, so you can admire the landscapes from sea level.

On our expedition cruises, there is no regimented itinerary, which means that we can tailor each day to maximise your experience. We might stay a little longer on a remote island to catch sight of some wildlife, or take a different route on our Zodiacs if the tides are changing faster than expected.

Boasting lush rainforests, arid deserts, stunning coastlines, buzzing cities, charming towns and a rich Indigenous culture, Australia is a wonder of contrasts bursting with diverse highlights just waiting to be explored. Experience its greatest icons and destinations your way with APT’s broad range of incredible holidays.

True seclusion awaits in the remote Kimberley at our network of wilderness lodges, available exclusively to APT guests. From spacious ensuites to chef-prepared three-course meals and private front decks, this really isn’t your average wilderness camping experience.

APT's state-of-the-art Mercedes-Benz 4WD vehicles are specially designed for touring in the most remote and rugged parts of the country. They bring you a little luxury in sometimes hard environments.
