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.

Dear Simone,
We are writing to thank Adventure Wild for our fantastic Kimberley tour recently. We loved every minute of the 12 days and thoroughly enjoyed all the places we visited. In particular, we would like to thank Mark and Carmel who looked after us so well and made the trip run like clockwork.
Please find some specific comments below:
Pre tour Service:
Both our travel agent and ourselves were very happy with the booking service and the pre tour information and assistance provided to us prior to the tour. Our travel agent had not previously heard of Adventure Wild so we will pass on some brochures.
Itinerary:
The tour was a good mix of long/busy days and quieter time. We appreciated that we needed to start early on particular days to get to places in a timely manner. Mark and Carmel’s organization was exemplary and made everything run very smoothly.
Meals:
We were very spoilt with the quality, variety and quantity of the meals and snacks provided. The meals were outstanding and we were very well fed. Lorraine’s dietary needs were very well catered for and we appreciated the care that Carmel took in contacting her prior to the tour.
Campsites:
The campsites varied but were all very adequate and well set up. The bathrooms were varied, but a number provided much better facilities than we expected.
Tour Guides:
Mark and Carmel led our tour in the best possible manner. Their friendly, out-going, personalities make them ideal for this role. We enjoyed their company and their love of the Kimberley showed in the information that they shared with us throughout the tour. They are both extremely well organized and had considered all possibilities in making the tour run smoothly. Little problems were no hassle and they dealt with any little variations/issues easily and efficiently.
Comfort Generally:
A camping tour by its very nature mean’s you will be “roughing it” to some extent. We had no problems with the comfort of the bus or any of the campsites. The swags were comfortable.
Hygiene:
Carmel and Mark made every effort to make sure all dishes etc were kept clean and hygienic. We were impressed by the freshness and the way all the food was handled. Personal hand washing was always available.
Other Comments:
We have had a wonderful holiday in a beautiful part of Australia. We enjoyed being with the other people on the tour and we had lots of fun together. We appreciated the provision of the water bottles but would have preferred a smaller less bulky container than the canteens – our only criticism. Mark and Carmel were fantastic tour leaders and we thank them and Adventure Wild for a great trip. We will be highly recommending this trip to others.
Our thanks and warmest regards,
Hi Simone & Karl
I’ve not long finished the Broome to Broome 12 day tour with Liz & Phil and wanted to let you know that I throughly enjoyed every day.
The scenery is AWESOME, the Gibb River Road an experience, the whole tour package is well organized and carried through with wonderful guides in Liz & Phil…. nothing was a hassle to them down to answering the same question multiple times. I admired their patience, tolerance and what seemed to be endless energy.
Well done everyone for a great trip!
Have a great day
Thank you for an amazing tour through the Kimberley’s. Every part of the trip was fantastic.
Mark and Carmel were outstanding hosts who left no stone unturned. Their knowledge of the areas was first class and gave me a wonderful experience.
Our group also contributed hugely to an incredible holiday.
I would throughly recommend Adventure Wild trips through the beautiful north of Western Australia
Simone
Firstly Bob and I would like to thankyou and your team, especially Liz and Phil, for the opportunity to have the most amazing Kimberley adventure; something we could never have contemplated on our own. Knowledgeable expertise, wonderful hospitality and caring company made our time so very memorable.
Thank you one and all.
Hello Simone,
Last week I completed your 12 day Kimberley Adventure, it was an amazing experience. Liz and Phil, our tour leaders, demonstrated immense knowledge and love of the Kimberley area and worked hard to make it a trip of a lifetime for each of their guests; they were totally professional in their approach, yet still relaxed and good fun.
The itinerary was excellent, the tents and swags comfortable, the All-Terrain 4WD coach was superb and the standard of food that Liz and Phil produced far exceeded expectations – delicious meals, snacks and plenty of fresh fruit and salad.
I don’t usually participate in organised tours, preferring to travel independently, but I could not have enjoyed this trip more, I have already recommended it to numerous friends.
Thank you!
Hi Simone and Karl,
I just loved my Adventure Wild trip and can’t remember how many times I said “Wow” along the way. The scenery was stunning and the food delicious.
Hats off to Thommo and Gools. Their professionalism, attention to detail and organisational skills ensured we all had the best time.
I loved the stories and laughs around the campfire each night. I haven’t laughed so much in a long time! Thanks to everyone on the tour for making this trip so special. As a solo traveller, I had a great time and would recommend this trip to anyone that would enjoy this style of traveling.
Hello Simone,
We want to thank you for assisting us with the last-minute change to our trip when we were left stranded in Darwin resulting in us missing our original tour. With all the stress that followed our missed flight to Broome, your and Karl’s calm assistance was exactly what we needed.
As for the trip itself, it was brilliant. Phil and Liz are worth their weight in gold. Staff have a huge impact on the image of a company and the satisfaction of customers; Phil and Liz were fantastic. Nothing was any trouble for them. They were always calm, helpful, friendly, generous…I could add many more adjectives but you get the message. They clearly love their job, the bush, natural and indigenous history and especially the Kimberley. Their commentary over the 12 days was very informative and interesting, giving context to the many wonderful experiences and sights we had during the trip. They helped the group quickly gel very well.
The quality of the meals and smokos and the quantity of food was more than we could have expected. The on-board library was well used. The driving was careful and safe and the Gibb River Road and track into Purnululu National Park were something to behold, especially up at the front of the truck with Phil.
A great trip which we will definitely recommend. (We went because it was highly recommended to us.)
G&T [never did get that introductory Gin and Tonic] – Gools and Thommo went above and beyond the call of duty to give 14 of us a perfectly run and fun filled “Gorgeous” tour of the Kimberley. We got to lots of wonderful Gorges and the Gorged ourselves on surprisingly delightfull meals for the whole twelve days. Despite my occasional whingeing about 6am breakfasts – the early starts always proved wise as we were generally leaving the key sites before the other buses and SUVs loomed into view – yep, had the hot springs and many a billabong to ourselves.
We could all live without the deeply rutted Gibb River Road but in the end those bumps and shudders rivet the whole experience into one’s memory forever. As they say no pain – no gain.

Thank you Liz and Phil for our amazing trip of the Kimberley.
Your love of the area, and passion for sharing your knowledge with all of us was obvious to us from the beginning of the tour
As first time campers, we had some concerns about how we would enjoy the experience, but we shouldn’t have worried, we loved every moment of it. The tents and swags were comfy, bathrooms were great (my favorites were the ones where I could look up at the sky as I showered) and the food that you provided from such a limited kitchen were delicious. The chats around the campfire at the end of each day, whilst a scrumptious dinner was being prepared each evening were memorable.
The Gibb River road is an amazing drive, stunning scenery and I’m glad we did it with the skill of such a careful driver as Phil. Our walks to the spectacular gorges were a highlight for me. The lure of a plunge into a cooling gorge pool was always inviting, and having 2 guides meant that even if you stopped for photos of the amazing area, you were never left, or pressured to walk at a pace beyond your own.
Liz and Phil, you are such wonderful hosts and a fabulous team. You approached everything with such joy and calm. You did everything you could to ensure that everyone had the experience that they wanted, without missing out on anything. Nothing was ever too much trouble to you.
I had a great trip and enjoyed the second half more than the first half. Both Mark and Carmel were exceptional and displayed care and kindness especially needed as we were unescorted as orginally planned.
Thanks again.
