Come join us for an adventure past the public access areas and delve deep into the depths of the ancient Karijini Landscape. The canyons we will be travelling through are only accessible with us and are even more stunning the deeper you go. It would be a shame to come all this way and not go further and deeper. We take you as deep as you can go into the wild heart of Karijini :)

Book in early to not miss out! Our tours often sell out well in advance and spots are strictly limited.

​

We currently offer; the Journey to the Centre of the Earth, the Red Gorge Adventure, the Weono Descent, and the Joffre Journey, depending on demand. The pricing and details are listed below. The tours are listed in order of difficulty.

The Joffre Journey will only be available to clients that have done a tour with us in Perth and/or have done a canyon with us before.

Please call us on +61 423 182 663 to book. We may not get back to you straight away as we may be running a tour. If we can't be reached, please email us at info@spacechameleon.com.au with a return phone number to make your inquiry. Please be aware due to the nature of phone service in the area, calling our number may give you a message that our phone no longer works. This is NOT the case, but a technical error by the server. We also do not get missed calls when we are in the canyons. An email is always the best way to contact us or call us after 1700 each day. We do not take online bookings and need to speak to all clients to assess suitability before booking a tour.
