The Kununurra–Broome corridor.
Kununurra to Broome is one of the longest scheduled coach corridors in Australia of 1,043 kilometres. Through-services take around 13 hours and 20 minutes, and most travellers break the journey at a midway stop rather than ride straight through. Greyhound Australia runs the corridor; check their timetable for departure times and seat availability. Hop-on hop-off passes can work out cheaper than buying segments individually if you plan to stop along the way.

Travel tips
What to know before you go.
Book at least seven days ahead during school holidays, the Easter long weekend, and the Christmas–New Year period. Long-haul corridors fill quickly during these windows and same-day fares can be double the advance-purchase price. Overnight coaches double as accommodation, so factor that hotel-night saving into your fare comparison. Bring a neck pillow and an eye mask if you want to sleep properly; coaches recline but don't lie flat. Arrive at the terminal at least 15 minutes before departure. Most operators begin boarding 10 minutes prior to the scheduled time and won't hold the coach for late passengers. Pack snacks and a refillable water bottle. Rest stop options on regional corridors are sparse, particularly between major towns. Check the operator's luggage policy before you travel. Most include one checked bag (40 kg) and one carry-on, but allowances vary by carrier and additional bags usually attract a fee.
