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.

“Faraway Bay”
(tune – “Bound For Botany Bay”)
Farewell to our families this fortnight
Farewell to our comforts and pet
Hello to old country and camping
In the landscape we’ll never forget.
Refrain…
We’re off with Adventure Wild camping
With our swags all rolled tightly and true
To traverse the Kimberleys overland
And take in the culture and view.
Well, there’s Thommo and he’s our commander
There’s Gools she’s his commandant too
There’s the AAPT fellow travelers
Don’t know what we poor campers go through.
Oh, the termites and boabs are everywhere
The red dust and spinafex too
In the wet the whole lot washes down the creek
God knows what those poor drovers went through.
Oh, had I the wings of a Kingfisher
I’d go the whole trip through anew
And pity the folk on The Gibb below
As their bones shake and cars break in two.
Refrain…

Just returned from trip with Wayne and Cheryl as our guides. WOW what a wonderful life changing experience.
Wayne was so knowledgeable about the country the people the flora and fauna and knew lots of interesting stories about past and present residents. The Dreamtime stories and information about the aboriginals were really informative. I learnt such a lot. Cheryl’s cooking was out of this world, I have no idea how she conjured up so many fantastic cuisines.
The country is just stunning I couldn’t name a favourite place as they were all so special to me.
My fellow travellers were such a good group, we had so many laughs. We left as strangers and came back as friends.
Loved every moment.

Reading previous reviews it’s all been said before about what a great experience and organisation with fantastic tour guides and our tour was no exception.
Adey and Corf lead our group with friendly openness, efficiency and patience. We could not fault them with each playing to their strengths. Adey is a great cook turning out hearty meals and generally overseeing we were all looked after. Corf for his organisation skills, humour and great story telling. Both worked together sharing tasks, driving and leading walks. We did not need to worry about anything. The scenery was pretty spectacular too. We were pleased to see some off the beaten track sites made special by the stories shared by Corf.
Thanks guys and also to the behind the scene team pre tour with all the information needed to prepare for our trip.

I have no hesitation in recommending Phil & Liz as very capable guides. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they were very accommodating and respectful to everyone. Any problems were dealt with promptly and efficiently.
The entire trip was a friendly and enjoyable experience.
Well done.

Our trip to the Kimberleys was amazing on every level: stunning scenery, beautiful billabongs, fun fellow-travellers, the Gibb River Road and all the stations we visited along that stretch.
We equally enjoyed the two days in Kununurra; time to wander the town, visit the art galleries (buying some) and other sites before heading back to Broome via the Bungle Bungles along the Great Northern Highway.
We loved the vastness and reach of the Kimberley and its changing landscape, coming across a cattle muster, the steep rugged cliff faces and river crossings, the wild life and the boab trees. All combined with the openness and friendliness of all the people we met along the way. It was indeed a surprising, stunning and memorable two weeks of changing landscapes, historical sites, beautiful sunrises and sunsets with the sound of birds settling for the night and waking at daylight.
Wayne and Cheryl were fabulous hosts; totally organised (and great at organising us all to be on the road early) the menus Cheryl prepared everyday was unbelievable, their knowledge of the country along with their story-telling by the camp-fires and on the bus each day kept us informed and entertained.
Last but not least, we did enjoy the camping in tents, but like the two night stays more than the one night. Thank you to all involved for organising such a fabulous travel experience; and thank you to our fellow travellers – we enjoyed their company.

What a trip. If you’ve never camped, never been in the “Outback”, wonder about your walking skills or are dubious about joining a group of people you don’t know, this is the trip for you.
If you’ve done it all before this is still the trip for you.
Our hosts Liz & Phil made it all so easy going, enjoyable, relaxed and informative.
Thank you Adventure Wild for a great trip.

The first question to ask is why would 14 people want to travel under canvas over red dirt, dusty corrugated roads, and to some very remote places, for 12 days with two guides and and all virtually unknown to each other?
The answers could include:
- For the challenge
- To get away from it all
- To enjoy a holiday in a unique and exciting way
- Or simply to see and experience parts of Australia we have never seen before.
The next questions include:
- What will the rest of the group be like?
- What will the guides be like?
- What if I don’t fit in?
What will the next twelve days be like? The bus picked us up at each individual’s place of accommodation and each exchanged a nervous “Hello”, “ Welcome Aboard” and polite smiles. The trip was about to begin and little were we to know what the next 12 days would bring.
It brought much laughter and exchange of banter, much enjoyment and amazement, and the most wonderful trip possible because of the bonding and togetherness of all those on board.
Our guides and our friends, Phil and Liz, both worked so hard to cater for our needs, serving up delicious meals to keep us all happy and giving us the low down each night by the campfire to ensure each day was as good, or better, than we hoped for. Phil and Liz both drove with much skill and kept us informed about the Kimberley and its history. They were always so kind, helpful and calming.
We could not have ask for better leaders and we are very grateful for all that they did.
We all have grown heaps after bonding together and have enjoyed every moment of seeing our beautiful country, so unique and amazing. We have enjoyed the campfires, the stories, and much laughter. We have enjoyed each other’s company and our different ways of life.
As our journey has ended I thank each and every one of you for being a friend and allowing me the privilege of sharing 12 special days, from Broome to Broome with Adventure Wild.
I could very happily do it all again and hopefully will.

Big G’DAY to Gools & Thomo
What a fantastic, professional and enjoyed camping trip through the Kimberlies, the ONLY way to see this magnificent part of Australia.
I can guarantee that you will be in great hands with these hosts/guides/friends who know all about the areas, the stories associated with it & “secret” add-ons that elevate the experience to the highest levels. Add to that the professional and caring care you are given & the gourmet meals…what more can you want? Fabulous and our thanks.

We thoroughly enjoyed our outback adventure through the Kimberley with Adey, Corf and a fantastic group of people. Our days were packed with breathtaking scenery and great walks that were achievable by even the least fit participants. The pleasure of a swim at our destination was something to look forward to.
Adey and Corf were a hospitable and efficient team who fed us delicious food and entertained us with stories and quick banter that made for humorous fire side conversation; we hope Corf treasures his acknowledgement from the Guinness Book of Records!
Rating 5/5
Amazing experience. Every day was my favourite day, until the next day!
Corf and Adey were an efficient, hospitable tour guide team. Adey produced amazing meals and Corf was extremely informative and brought the Kimberley experiences and history to life with his compelling storytelling.
Thanks for the great memories.
