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,
I am a bit slow to comment on our experience with Adventure Wild but rest assured we have been recommending to our friends and family who are fit enough to put a trip of the Kimberley with Adventure Wild on their wish list.
Carmel and Mark are a great team who provided a memorable experience as well as being resourceful, helpful, kind, accommodating, great drivers, great cooks (best beer damper and amazing desert desserts) and demonstrating a range of other positive attributes to boot.
Our experience of the company was all positive from the time we first met Rory and Carl at the Lifestyle and Leisure show, to our online and phone dealings with Simone who helped us with bookings for the trip and ‘add-ons’ and the trip itself met or exceeded all our expectations.
Many thanks for providing the opportunity for us to see parts of our country that we might otherwise have missed.
On a personal note, I especially appreciated the effort that Carmel and Mark made so that we could visit the Yiyili community school and art gallery.
Regards

We would like to say that we have had the most wonderful holiday in the Kimberley, thanks to our very informative tour guides Carmel & Mark.
Adventure Wild you have the most amazing tour guides in Carmel & Mark, we have travelled all over the world and the two of them would be on top of our list. We had a great group that all came together and had so much fun.
The 12 day camping tour was everything we expected, the walks, the waterfalls, horse riding, the helicopter flight over the bungle bungles, sleeping under the stars, the food prepared by Carmel was plentiful, tasty and lots of variety, not forgetting the damper cooked by Mark, you will never go hungry. Sitting around the camp fire enjoying a drink or two and star gazing, very relaxing to finish up the day.
Would highly recommend Adventure Wild and our unforgettable tour guides Carmel & Mark.!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Simone
Just wanted to let you know we had a wonderful trip, spectacular scenery, the company was great, and cannot praise Liz and Phil enough. Went out of their way to make the trip enjoyable for all.
As you know on one of the walks, my husband John had a fall, and badly gashed his eye. PHIL and Liz took command, giving first aid to John, but also ensuring those in our group were looked after as well. Phil took John and I to Kununurra Hospital, and looked after us, including feeding and watering.
Thank you Phil and Liz.
Once again thank you for a great experience.

How does one describe an adventure that takes you to places that leaves you speechless? Mark Twain wrote of Mauritius as having been made first and heaven created after. How would he describe this trip?
I wondered why someone, 200 years ago, with a mule, horse or foot alone would go to places that are Raw, Rugged, Harsh and overwhelming. Find places that are an oasis in a land so unforgiving. I am grateful they did and “Adventure Wild” took me there and showed me places that no documentary or cinematography can ever capture.
Liz and Phil, our guides brought me to places that I have seen countless pictures of, heard many a story, but when I experienced this beauty of our land, it took on a vastly greater significance. The ad using the phrase, “you’ll never ever know, if you don’t go” explodes into superfluity.
I now have a memory embedded in me, indebted to “Adventure Wild”.
Thank you; Liz, Phil, Simone and Carl.

Hi Simone and the team,
Just want to say a big thank you for you and the team. Rosemarie and I participated in the 12 day tour on 19 August 2016. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip. It exceeded all our expectation. From the very beginning when we met Thommo and Gools in Canberra we were convinced that this would be the holiday we want. After not too long, the decision was made to book the 12 day trip.
Having done the tour now, all we can say that it was a great experience and we are so glad that we have done it. Our tour guides, Liz and Phil, were outstanding. Always in a good mood and helpful. The food was great, thanks to Liz. We even liked the early rises and going to sleep just after the sun set. All in all, it was a most enjoyable tour. Not forgetting, the Kimberley stunning scenery.
Again, thank you very much for organizing the great Kimberly experience.
Give our regards to Queen Liz and Prince Phil
Kind regards

Simone,
For quite a while I have meant to write to let you know how much I appreciated this trip. (I have passed on my experiences to friends and several intend also doing this trip)
The itinerary was well planned; food was excellent but most of all it was Corf and Adey who brought their skills of storytelling; organisation; and their ability to get a disparate group working together quickly that really enabled all of us to get so much from this trip.
Their guiding was brilliant, it enabled me to have a complete experience with no regrets later of what “I should have done”
Thanks

My wife and I had the happy experience of touring the Kimberly’s with Adventure Wild this August/September over a twelve day period. The North West of Australia had always been a destination that we had both wanted to explore for a long time and the only disappointment we had, was that the experience had to come to an end. The diversity of the region was astounding and came to life with background information provided by our knowledgeable tour guides, Mark and Carmel. It can’t be understated how much more alive the whole experience was due to the familiarity our guides were able to provide as to the history of the areas we visited. The Bungle-Bungle’s (what sort of name is that?), Zebedee Springs, El Questro are some of the finest memories we will have during this life-time and rather than satisfy our curiosity about this part of the world, it has stoked it and I’m sure we will be returning again to see more in the future. Our group was fantastic and the feeling of sharing these experiences together, reverent. We would like to express our thanks to all those at Adventure Wild, but in particular Mark and Carmel who showed us just a tiny fraction of the lucky country and reaffirmed our belief that we live in the greatest nation on Earth. Australia. Get into it!
Thanks

Hi Simone,
I thoroughly enjoyed the whole tour. Having grown up a country girl I just loved the scenery and landscapes which were spectacular in the Kimberley – I am still raving about it to anyone who dares to listen!!! Our guides Carmel and Mark, were fantastic and happy to share their knowledge and accommodate everyone’s needs during the trip. Having camped before privately, I was very comfortable in our swags and although the tents were clean and spacious, I chose to sleep under the stars each night bar the 2 colder nights when I retreated to the tent!!!
I loved exploring the gorges with our friendly caring group of adventurers and took advantage of the opportunity to fly up to the coast and Kalumburu, cruise the Ord River and fly by helicopter over the Bungle Bungles. I would thoroughly recommend all three to future adventurers. Thank you so much – every detail of the trip was taken care of and the choice of sites to visit and camp were wonderful. I have willingly recommended Adventure Wild to friends and family since returning.
Kind regards and sincere thanks

Now that I am back at work I have reflected on the most enjoyable 12 days I spent with Adventure Wild and wishing I could do it all again. We were truly lucky to have the best weather, the best group of people to tour with, stunning scenery and two of the best tour guides and genuine good people we could have asked for. Gools and Thommo thank you for your patience, your stories, your great driving on some incredible roads and for guiding us to the surprises to be found in the Kimberley. Incredible food cooked with love by Gools with some help from Thommo on the wok, was eagerly consumed. Thommo thank you for giving us one last reminder of the “Gibb River Road Massage” as we drove into Broome.
Thank you Simone and your team at Adventure Wild. Your friendly service and your attention to the small details pre-tour are exceptional.

We have been fortunate enough to have experienced most of the iconic places in our country.
However, Adventure Wild took us on a tour of The Kimberley which eclipses all else.
Truely magnificent.
You must go there.
We are grateful to Adventure Wild and especially to our tour leaders, Gools & Tommo, for a remarkable 12 days
