Cooktown & North Queensland Tours – About Us

With a love and appreciation of this vast and beautiful region of Tropical North Queensland, Adventure North Australia was founded in 2004 by Maryanne Jacques who has worked in the tourism industry for 30 years.  With this experience and understanding each of our tours are personally scheduled and arranged by a small team of staff who ensure your experience with Adventure North Australia will be special. 

Our Tour Vehicles

             

Memberships

Adventure North Australia operate purpose built 4WD vehicles for off road touring.  May 2008 we have taken delivery of a new 16 seat Mitsubishi Canter.  Our second vehicle is an OKA with 13 seats.  Both vehicles are air conditioned and fitted with seat belts. They are designed for small personalized tours.

Our Cooktown tours travel on the famous 4WD Bloomfield Track. 

The Bloomfield Track in tropical North Queensland became the site of one of Australia's biggest environmental protests.  It began on a small scale with locals, and then organised through state and national conservation organizations, attracting people from all parts of Australia and from all walks of life, people chained themselves to trees and buried themselves up to their necks in the ground in front of bulldozers to stop the road.

While the road did eventually go through, the protesters did get the regions recognized and in 1988 the area was declared World Heritage.

Our Cooktown tours will take you through this remote and beautiful environment in tropical North Queensland.
