Combine the treasure of nature with the treasure of the earth in this fly/drive day tour. From Kununurra, we fly to the Argyle Diamond Mine. Enjoy a 3.5-4 hour guided ground tour of the Argyle Diamond Mine located at the traditional Jaliwang Dreaming site at Barramundi Gap which sits directly on the Argyle Kimberlite pipe on the eastern end of the southern Blatchford Escarpment.
Your guided tour commences with a tasty and generous buffet lunch at the Staff Village and a visit to the Village Store where souvenirs and Argyle Diamonds may be purchased. We then commence the drive through the processing plant (Designated Area). Observe the mine's open cut operations from a well-positioned viewing platform and visit the diamond and local history display gallery. Reboard your aeroplane and continue on to the Bungle Bungle. We give you the best views of this ancient formation comprising deep gorges and the well known beehive domes in the 20 min we spend over the massif. This scenic flight also offers 20 min over majestic Lake Argyle and the bordering Carr Boyd Range, as well as views of Lake Kununurra, Ord River Irrigation Area and Diversion Dam before landing in Kununurra.
