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.

Feedback Adventure Wild 28 June – 8 July
Dear Simone,
Adventure Wild was recommended to us by a friend, and we are thrilled to pass on this recommendation unconditionally. The trip was simply superb! The organisation, expertise and care of you and the tour guides Liz and Phil were outstanding in all aspects. Despite the unseasonal rainfall, you managed to get the tour going and organised flawlessly all the rebooking (which at times were difficult due to individual requirements and travelling plans). Even though we could not follow the original trip due to weather and road conditions, we never felt like we were missing out because of alternative destinations thanks to the broad and extensive knowledge of places of our tour guides, Phil and Liz. Their care of individuals and the group was way beyond that one would expect. Each group has different demands and without doubt the group on this trip formed supportive and happy dynamics thanks to Liz and Phil. Each individual felt respected, cared for and supported. We learned so much during this journey about culture, geology, fauna and flora.
With gratitude
Feedback for tour 18-29 June – Sarah & Pete
What an amazing adventure filled with firsts. First time camping, first organised tour, first tent pitched (just one). LOVED EVERYTHING!!!
Everyone was so supportive of each other, so everyone could do and experience all there was to see. Food was nutritious and so enjoyable, with all dietary requirements happily met. Don’t worry, lots of treats, too. We were definitely well fed and watered.
Our guides, Sarah and Pete, had plenty of praise already in the reviews on your site and met all expectations, sharing stories and history that really gave insight and a feeling for the history of these beautiful lands and people who came before us, as well as favorite songs, recipes and jokes. I felt connected with our beautiful country and proud of its beauty, which they obviously took great pleasure in helping us achieve.
My only complaint is you don’t do other tours, so I can join them. What about one between Broome and Darwin, or further down the coast? You’d have me in a shot.
Finally, you go above and beyond in service, when needed. I can’t recommend you enough.
Warm regards,
Hi Simone,
I had a great time on the tour. Wendy & Magnus were great guides & hosts. Food was great. A very well run outfit.
Thank you for a lovely holiday.
I will definitely be recommending Adventure Wild to everybody.
Kind regards
Dear Simone and Karl
Thanks so much for the opportunity to join the group that left Broome on Wednesday 11th June with Liz and Phil.
It was such a fabulous experience. Liz and Phil were exceptional hosts and guides. We saw so much of our beautiful ancient country, hiking and swimming, boat cruises and a bus trip to Lake Argyle. Phil and Liz were so genuinely kind and helpful, and they shared their extensive knowledge of the area. They were so well organised and worked such long hours to enable us to have the best time. It was a unique experience, camping in a tent sleeping in a swag. It was really quite the adventure, with many highlights, such as swimming across the Manning River at 6.30am with the sun rising and the mist swirling across the still water. This was a “pinch me” moment and one that I will never forget. Emma Gorge was another highlight, as was Chamberlain Gorge, Lake Argyle and the Ord River Cruise and the Bungle Bungles. Seeing the saltwater crocodile and the hundreds of birds at Parry’s Lagoon was a real bonus. I enjoyed seeing everything and learning so much about this ancient land, it was a wonderful time.
Liz and Phil are amazingly wonderful authentic people, and they really contributed so positively to the time we spent together.
I am handing out the brochures you posted out. My friend Fern from Melbourne recommended this adventure to me (she went on her trip last July) and I would have no hesitation in recommending it to others.
Sending warmest regards from Adelaide
Hi Simone and Team,
Just wanted to say a huge thank you for such an amazing tour of the Kimberleys, from day one it was exciting and so much to see and learn about this breathtaking beautiful part of Australia. We were fortunate to have the very BEST tour guides and a great group of fellow campers. The tents and swags were comfortable, the morning order of swags, bags and breakfast worked well as we all worked as a team. I put that down to the years of experience of both Phil and Liz who really made the tour beyond many expectations. Their commentary and knowledge of the area was educational and the outback lessons (Phil) drawn in the dirt were clear and informative. Both Liz and Phil shared unlimited amount of knowledge and passion for the Kimberleys. I was blown away by Phil’s control over difficult crossings and his outstanding skill behind the wheel. Cooking was well planned and nutritionally adequate for all diets. I really enjoyed Liz and Phil’s recipes, lots of variety and delicious.
The itinerary was perfect as we ventured deeper into the Kimberleys, there was something for everyone, I really embraced the peaceful stillness of Parrys Lagoon just sitting and observing the birds and saltwater crocodile. The Bungle Bungles were spectacular and the helicoptor ride unfolded another layer of vision of ancient sea beds.
Thank you and all for the hard work that goes into making and planning this fantastic adventure.
This was my second trip with Sara and Pete, and once again — absolutely brilliant. They’re not just great guides, they’re a great team: organised, calm, funny, and genuinely caring.
We were fed like royalty — delicious meals every day, even in the middle of nowhere! The atmosphere was always relaxed and cheerful, and it felt like everyone quickly found their groove. Turns out, camping isn’t hard at all when you’re with people who know what they’re doing and make it fun.
Sara and Pete create the kind of trip where you feel safe, supported, and part of a little adventure family. Can’t recommend them enough!
Words cannot express how fantastic this trip was but we’ll try.
Where do we start! Simone – you did an incredible job of setting up our itinerary in reverse in the days before departure to ensure that our group was able to access all sites. To our guides
Peter and Sarah – you took on the challenges of the reversed itinerary with aplomb and took it in your stride.. The meals you produced were amazing and varied. We had pasta and rice dishes, salmon, steak and chicken. A dessert every night and a wonderful selection of cold salads and meats at lunchtimes. Pete – your knowledge of the history of the Kimberley was amazing and you were a great story teller. Sarah – you kept us organised and safe. Your compassion and caring encouragement for the few of us who were challenged on some of the walks was so much appreciated. We’re in our late 70’s but enjoyed every minute of this epic trip.
The highlights are too many to mention – there were moments big and small every day. A number of bucket list items ticked off spectacularly. The Bungles, Gibb River Road itself, Tunnel Creek , Emma Gorge to name just a few!!
Thank you Adventure Wild – we are so glad we chose to see the Kimberley with you – you really are the best!!!
💐 4-15th June 2025 Sarah and Peter accolades.
Firstly I’m freezing 🥶 (ha!)
I’d like to thank you again for the effort you went to in order for us to have a smooth successful “reverse” safari. It was a chaotic time and I’m sure you spent a long time on the phone reorganising all the campsite bookings, flights, cruises and special permits we needed. Also a big thank you to Sarah for making the meals work to the altered schedule and Pete for his kind calm demeanour. I really hope you all feel appreciated and supported.😘
Regarding our tent situation, well my little group of non camping friends volunteered and we managed well enough. We may have grumbled amongst ourselves (sorry🙏) for 5 minutes each time we set up/down in the dark but it was soon forgotten and didn’t detract from the overall awesome experience. Best thing about the domes was the silent zips😂 We were all delighted at how warm the swags were.
Among my trip highlights were Purnululu without the general public, the Ord River cruise, the full moon rise over Cockburn Range and the cold early morning finale at Tunnel Creek.
This is my 2nd time in the Kimberleys with Pete. First was with IO in 2019. It was very dry then. Now in 2025 I got to see it with abundant water. I’m so lucky. After that great trip I still had a longing to come back and now I am fully satisfied.
Lastly, your customer service is phenomenal. No other Aust company (and I’ve travelled with them all) is as friendly and approachable as AW.
Thanks again,
Hi Simone,
Had a fantastic time with a great group of people. Peter and Sarah did an amazing job and were always approachable no matter how many questions we asked.
Thanks
Good morning, Simone.
Wow, what an amazing trip we had! Sarah and Pete are just fabulous leaders/guides, and every day of our adventure was wonderful. And we got in to see everything, despite recent weather!
Could I ask you to please pass on our gratitude to Sarah and Pete.
All the best,
