Hi folks, Im planning a one-way trip in the next few weeks from
Brisbane to
Kununurra, and was looking for any tips on the safest and cheapest way to get there. I have a very solid and reliable 'cruiser - just need a few tips on the route. I was thinking train it to
Cairns, then follow one of the many tour buses overland to
Katherine or
Darwin, then on to the Kimberly. Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciate. Cheers,
Emmet.

Mate, why would you want to follow a tour bus? Training to
Cairns I wouldn't expect to be particularly cheap, but have never done so myself so can't offer any real advice on that aspect.
Anyway, if you're trying to get to the
Kimberley why go via
Cairns? - that's not exactly the most direct route! Maybe you should provide a bit more detail as to what you aim to do if you want any useful advice.

Ok I should have been a bit more direct. Basically I start a new job in the Kimberly in a couple of weeks, and I just need advice on the best way to get there from
Brisbane. I dont need to go to
Cairns, I just thought that would be the safest way, as I will be travelling alone. I dont intent to do any major sightseeing along the way - just have to arrive in one piece. As for following the tour bus, just a thought as it would be safer if i had any problems.
