Tailor made Kimberley tourism experiences that promote and work towards the long term sustainability of the Kimberley's natural, historical and cultural resources.

With degrees in both archaeology and history, Lee has spent the past 20 years exploring the Kimberley and has dedicated her life’s work to the preservation of its natural & cultural heritage. She has worked closely with Aboriginal people in a number of capacities and has a good knowledge of the cultural and archaeological background of many of the Language Groups in the Kimberley.
