We were surprised at how comfortable the swags were, appreciated the fact that we didn’t have to unpack and put up tents at each site.
Judy & Steve Lukacs
The tents, sleeping swags and locations to camp were great. I had the best night sleeps!
Jen, Joe & Jack Previtera
The campsites were always clean, well maintained and located in picturesque surrounds. Being in the outback is the best! The tents are clean and spacious and even the swags are cosy. The sleeping bags give the 5 Star touch with their delightful silky linings.
Jenny McKenzie-Murray
Our tented accommodation left nothing wanting and our bags, swags, sleeping bags and water bottles kept us comfortable and warm.
Denis & Shirley Ranger
Great trip. The fixed tents, swags and sleeping bags were clean, warm and comfortable.
Jos Benner
To be honest I was a bit concerned how I would go not being a camper or very fit. But once I started I was happily surprised that I was able to do all the walks and not miss out on seeing anything.
Rebecca Lingam
The camping experience was great. Having the tents already set up makes life very easy and the swags with sheets make for a fairly comfortable night. We enjoyed sitting round the campfire and chatting and playing games many evenings.
Meryl & Glenn Jackson
The camping experience was great fun and campfires at night added to the experience.

Hi Simone
I loved my time in the Kimberley’s, it surpassed all my expectations. Your pre organisation was appreciated especially suggesting I not change my accommodation before the tour.
Liz and Phil are a great pair, efficient, organised, friendly and excellent guides. They made us feel like a real family and we gelled as a group. I’m happy to recommend your company to family and friends.
As someone who has travelled extensively throughout the world and Australia- privately as well as going on over a dozen organised tours, this trip rates up there as special.
Wishing you continued success with your business.
Cheers
Thanks Simone
Our trip was absolutely wonderful, there isn’t one thing that I would change. Magnus and Wendy were brilliant and please thank them again from me for their professionalism and warmth. Our travelling companions were very nice people too!
Good wishes to you all
Dear Simone
We have now been back in NZ for a week, after enjoying an amazing four weeks in WA.
Thanks for a great trip!!
We thank you, Sarah and Pete for a wonderful Kimberley adventure. It was beyond our expectations, despite Barbs’ little extra adventure. Sarah and Pete were great guides and hosts, keeping us informed, well fed, and entertained. We really enjoyed the company of our group and everyone played a part in making the tour so much fun.
We appreciate your very kind help and support throughout, and especially with making arrangements for us to join the group a day late. We are so pleased that was possible.
Best wishes for the remainder of the season, and please pass on our thanks and wishes to Sarah and Pete.
Kind regards
Hi Simone ,
Many thanks for arranging such a great trip. We thoroughly enjoyed being with Magnus and Wendy – fantastic guides! Great driving, cooking, knowledge and great people skills. They kept us all safe and happy and managed a couple of difficult people very well. I highly recommend them as guides and Adventure Wild as a tour company.
Many thanks
Hi Simone,
Thank you for the group photo. The trip was what I wanted. Camping, seeing the Ord River Road close up, the mountains, colours, Bungle Bungles, water crossings, and a very good group made for a trip I thoroughly enjoyed. An excellent overview of the Kimberley’s.
Thanks very much. 😎☀️🌹
I recently returned from an unforgettable trip to the Kimberley in Western Australia, where I went on a tour with Adventure Wild Kimberley Tours. (25 June – 6 July 2025) What an experience – no, a series of experiences, each a unique insight into this wonderful part of our country!
Led by our indefatigable guides, we visited gorges, rivers, tunnels, hot springs, towns and, of course, the Bungle Bungles, learning about each as we went. Liz and Phil’s enthusiasm and comprehensive knowledge about indigenous and colonial history, as well as the region’s geology and geography gave added dimension to each place we explored.
The camping experience was far more comfortable than I had expected – not having to deal with pitching or packing up tents was a bonus, the swags were warm and comfortable and being able to stand in my tent was a treat. It’s a shame I was such a terrible swag roller! Each of the places we stayed had its own charm whether it was busy and well resourced like El Questro and Kununurra or quieter with brilliant starry skies like Windjana Gorge and Brooking Springs.
The food was plentiful and delicious – how such a variety of meals were conjured out of simple ingredients in no time at all was impressive – snacks were always available too!
It was a pleasure to travel with a great bunch of people from so many walks of life, all committed to engaging with all the trip had to offer. While the sound of a tent zipper at ungodly hours will not be missed 😆 the slo-mo swag human chain will make me smile for a long time.
I can’t say enough about our guides, Liz and Phil. They worked incredibly long hours, keeping us all safe, healthy, happy and well fed and watered. Their sense of fun and adventure, their care for everyone on each of our walks, and the rest of the time too, their incredible levels of organisation, and their knowledge and far ranging skill set made the trip move along seamlessly and safely.
I’m so glad I chose Adventure Wild – I’d recommend them to people in a heartbeat.
Hi Simone
Linda and I had a ball. Wendy and Magnus were the consummate hosts and we could not have asked for more. We were told it would be fun and it certainly was.
Great team effort! ❤️
The tour was excellent – very jam-packed but the only way to fit everything in! I never would have seen so much of the Kimberley, with so much insider knowledge, without the tour, which featured a range of activities from the *relatively* laid back to the more adventurous, and various optional tours. Liz and Phil were terrific guides: well-informed, considerate, fun. It was great not to have to set up and strike our own tents, and so lovely to have tents we could stand up in! Within the constraints of camping the swags were comfortable and the camping sites presented a good mix of experiences from more bush/national park camping (albeit with flushing toilets and showers) to the more commercial, with bar, swimming pool, charging stations and so on. It was good to be travelling with a small group as well; clearly that ‘holiday camp’ feeling is unavoidable but we had a reasonable amount of freedom at some times in the day to do our own thing or be more sociable as we wished. And the food was better than I’ve had at some hotels: Liz and Phil clearly put a lot of thought into the menus.
Had an amazing time with fabulous guides Sarah and Peter! The tents and swags were comfortable, food delicious and their expert guiding to wonderful sites made for an amazing trip!
We packed in a lot and loved every day and all the optional tours were well worth doing.
Thanks for making the Kimberley so accessible, I wouldn’t have wanted to be driving the Gibb River and Bungle Bungles roads.
So glad to have had a deep immersive experience of this uniquely beautiful part of Australia 🙂
Thanks again for a superb time!
Cheers
Dear Simone and Karl,
We cant thank you enough for organising our tour of the Kimberley with Magnus and Wendy as our guides. These two worked tirelessly to make sure everyone enjoyed and got the most out of the trip, nothing was too much trouble and the food was excellent and not once did we go hungry.
As first time group tourists we were a little apprehensive but we needn’t have been as everyone soon gelled and got along. As well as the truly staggering landscapes that form the Kimberley, we were treated to some spectacular sunsets at amazing locations (Pigeon Hole lookout at El Questro was a show stopper). The organisation for the additional tours by you for us was faultless, and we felt totally looked after from pick up to final drop off.
Well done on behalf of Lynne and myself.

Dear Simone and Karl.
Probably just as well that David typed our review cos he knows how I go on and on! I don’t quite know where to begin but I just wanted to take this chance to thank you both SO much for absolutely everything. David and I aren’t tour group people so we did set out with a degree of ‘I hope we’ve done the right thing’, and to be honest when we were picked up on that Friday morning to see 2 ladies in their 80s our hearts did somewhat sink. But not for long! It has to be said that if every group had a dear sweet Catherine and a Janet in amongst them it would make for a very happy group. Those 2 were amazing. But we were blessed to have such a great group of people. All from different walks of life and great conversations were had both on the bus, on the walks, around the camp fire and when helping with the evening and the morning jobs.
The bus was super comfy…even when bouncing along the corrugations and that trailer is the work of a genius. Unbelievable what you’ve managed to pack into there altogether. Wendy and Magnus are 2 extraordinarily exceptional people and they truly did make the trip so special for David, myself and everyone in our group. They soon worked out who wanted to do the long walks, who could only manage the shorter walks but not once did they make either of those groups of people feel awkward about their capabilities or limitations and between the two of them they accommodated everyone’s requirements.
Wendy’s dinners were amazing. We never went hungry. As a cook myself I truly take my hat off to her for producing what she did with such limited cooking facilities. Magnus’s ‘evening briefings’ were a delight as we were all then clear about what the next day had in store for us all. They and that trailer operated like a well oiled machine, they worked like Trojans putting everyone else’s needs first and I do so hope that they’ll be with you for a long while yet. Totally brilliant.
I must also thankyou from the bottom of my heart for pulling off the Mitchell Falls trip for us. I had given up all hope of getting out there but you made it happen. Not a cheap day for sure but so worth every penny. It was spectacular and Mark and Carmel made for great travelling companions. Thanku again for for all of the work you did behind the scenes to tick that box for me.
Every day was amazing and it’s impossible to pick favourites but of course, for me, Mitchell Falls is up there but the Manning Falls fights for the top spot too. That whole day was so special tho the night before when Magnus said “we’re swimming across at 6.30” I think we all thought he was off his rocker🤣but he was so right. To do that spectacular walk and get to the falls and have them to ourselves before the hoards arrived was so special. And ofcourse, the Bungles were magical. Yep, impossible to pick a favourite.
Thanku again for everything that you both do to make this tour such a memorable event for everyone and a massive thanku to Wendy and Magnus. This whole trip was a wonderful way to remember our 30th wedding anniversary and their taking us upto Pigeon Hole Lookout on that Tuesday evening was the icing on the cake.
Much love and best wishes to you all.
Lynne
