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.
Steve & Connie Calderwood
Dear Simone and Karl,
Just wanted to let you know that we had a fantastic trip, I must admit I’m not really a person that normally does these types of holidays but thanks to the wonderful guidance and commentary by both Kylie and Dean it turned into the most fun and interesting holiday. They are truly an inspiration of how two people can bring the stories and history of the Kimberly’s to life. I have travelled to most of the sights before and they brought new joy and information that I had not known.
They had the utmost patience and sense of humour as they dealt with differing levels of experience (me being quite slow at walking and sometimes a bit whingy too) they never made me feel like I was holding the group back, and always supported each and everyone.
If you wanted a little feedback on the campsites, they were mostly fantastic, in particular I really enjoyed El Questro, I enjoyed the fact that we were there 3 nights which was a pleasant break from rolling our swag and backing up, I would have liked a free night to eat in the restaurant, I know that’s tricky as food is included, but I would have been happy to pay extra for that or maybe if this is something you would consider you could do a deal with El Questro?
We all would have loved a night out with Kylie and Dean, (who wouldn’t) and El Questro could be the perfect venue to do so.
Lastly the tour food is amazing, in so many ways, healthy, tasty and a great variety, and I was astonished that Kylie and Dean could be that organised as to provide delicious meals on top of everything else they did.
So well done to the Adventure Wild Tours, I will certainly recommend your company to all of my adventurist friends 🙂
Warm Regards
Thank you, Simone for sorting this. Appreciate also your welcome home email this arvo.
A wonderful trip, thoroughly helpful and knowledgeable G&T made us comfortable and relaxed knowing they are so experienced. Certainly saw, walked, swam, stayed in a spectacular part of Oz.
I wish you and all your guides safe travelling, with healthy groups maintained till this Covid clears off.
Had a ball, only 700 photos!
Great experience, thanks.
Thanks Simone,
I have had an amazing trip thru’ the Kimberley. I have experienced so many amazing aspects of this country and learnt so much about it and eaten like royalty. Gools & Thommo work so hard to make each travellers experience memorable and rewarding, they work long hours and do the mundane and exciting with equal ease & grace with a good sprinkling of humour. I am so glad Judy Polkinghorne of Girls on Tour recommended this tour to me.
Wishing you continued success in your business,
Regards Jenny
Hello Simone,
I thought it might be useful to provide you with a bit of feedback on our recently completed tour. First can I say that it was everything we expected and more. We were very fortunate to have Liz and Phil as our tour leaders. Their relaxed, personable style, and breadth of knowledge of the region made every day enjoyable and informative. It was also good that they were prepared to show a bit of flexibility in relation to each days arrangements, and ad-lib as circumstances dictated.
Top of the list for us as far as attractions are concerned was Emma Gorge. We also rank El Questro Gorge and Geike Gorge highly.
Manning Falls is spectacular, and would be up there as well. The Triple JJJ cruise down the Ord River was outstanding. I don’t know whether it was because of fatigue or what, but for us, Windjana Gorge and Tunnel Creek lacked that ‘wow’ factor!
To be truthful, I’m not sure we ever got used to the swags and tents, but if the ablutions were of a good standard then it made a big difference. Here Kimberleyland was a clear leader, followed by El Questro. (What a wonderful place Kimberleyland is, it’s obvious that a lot of effort goes into all areas).
We thought the pace of things was generally ok. We did though appreciate the afternoon off at El Questro, and thought that the afternoon following the walk to Manning Falls should also been left free. (Galvan’s Gorge is pretty, but you have to draw a line somewhere!)
Finally, from our very first contact, and throughout, we have been impressed by the organisation and management of Adventure Wild – thank you!
Best wishes
I am so impressed with what you, Gools, Thommo and team of workers (there has to be others behind the scene?) have accomplished to ensure a fabulous experience for all of the travellers on board Tour 2205 (departed Broome 18 May).
Kind Regards
A huge thank you to Gools and Thommo (Cheryl & Wayne) for shepherding us safely through the Kimberleys on what turned out to be the trip of a lifetime. We were a little apprehensive as to how we would cope (we are not campers or hikers) but were blown away by the professionalism of the tour, the beauty of the outback and the fantastic stories as told by Thommo.
The trip far outweighed our expectations and we came away with a greater appreciation of this wonderful and vast country. I must say the swags were surprisingly very comfortable and we were treated to great meals. All in all, we loved this trip and would highly recommend this trip to anyone with an adventuring spirit.
Thanks again to Simone & Karl for providing a comprehensive adventure of the Kimberleys.
By the way, I was going to post a glowing review on (a) your organisation skills (b) the organisational skills and knowledge of Liz and Phil and (c) the overall experience but I could see that it had been done a million times before.
I know it takes a team to pull off something so professional, so congratulations.
I can imagine you will miss Liz and Phil but I reckon they will return as they have a true love of the area and speak very highly of you.
Thank you for a wonderful trip – the views were spectacular, the travel companions engaging and the tour guides, Phil and Liz, knowledgeable and wonderful comapny.
Regards
We have thoroughly enjoyed our trip and will recommend Adventure Wild highly to anyone. Kylie and Dean are amazing and nothing is too much trouble we don’t know how they do it, they are special people.
Thanks
Hi Simone,
We booked the trip with the usual hopes and expectations, but the overall experience was truly amazing – every day just seemed to get better and better. We have finished the trip with so many fantastic memories and we are looking forward to sharing the photographs and stories with family and friends when we get home.
That said, we must make special mention about Kylie and Dean, our wonderful tour guides. We could not find a single fault about the deadly duo – the fun and team spirit they created in the group, the information shared on places visited, their precise planning and time management and, of course, the amazing food that was prepared every day was way beyond anything we had expected. You need to do everything you can to keep hold of that special couple……. they made the trip for us.
Seriously though, we could not find a single fault about the tour or the tour guides. Fantastic value for money holiday and we will be doing everything we can to convince friends to do the tour in the future.
Thanks again,
