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.

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.

Our tented accommodation left nothing wanting and our bags, swags, sleeping bags and water bottles kept us comfortable and warm.

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.

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.

The camping experience was great fun and campfires at night added to the experience.

The tour was AMAZING!! Greg and Choccy are absolutely 5 star for this type of tour hosting. Organised, so knowledgeable and wonderfully enjoyable. We had a fabulous time and will be recommending this tour with Greg and Choccy to anyone, and everyone, who will listen.
Thank you!
Rating 4/5
The tour was great, it exceeded our expectations. I doubt if we could have had a better couple to lead us, inform us, care for us and cook for us than Greg & Choccy. Greg in particular is very knowledgeable and seems passionate about the Kimberley and its wildlife, ecology, flora etc.
Thanks to your organisation.

I wanted to give you some feedback from our trip to the Kimberley’s with Carmel and Mark. My husband and I enjoyed ourselves very much and this was due to several things.
1. The great organisation, everything worked really smoothly the days were well planned and although Carmel and Mark worked really hard to keep us all in track it did not feel at all stressful for us the tourists. Although we did have a strict timetable we did not feel we were rushed and we’re encouraged to take our time walking into the gorges to look around and take photos.
2. The tents and beds were really comfortable, I was worried that I would not be able to sleep because of being on the ground but we found the beds very warm and comfortable, in fact I had trouble getting up because I was so happy in bed. I think because we were getting up early, being energetic and exhausted by the end of the day also helped with sleeping. It was lovely to have most of the tents put up for us already, just made it much easier to walk into a tent rather than work on erecting it before unpacking each day. It was also nice to have a couple of nights in the same place so that did not have to pack up our beds and bags each day, I appreciated that.
3. Of course the scenery was fantastic, I think the gorges were very special, I loved the fact of walking into a gorge and not knowing what to expect, Carmel and Mark tried to time things so that it was not too crowded which made it much nicer, especially in some of the smaller pools. The waterfalls and pools were just lovely and whether you swam or not it was very special to just sit and enjoy the cool places. I was worried about the amount of walking but in the end I felt the amount we did was very do able, both Jim and I were fine with walking and did not feel over stretched. We were worried about walking in the heat but the afternoon walks were often in gorges with shade so that was not a problem, everything was so well planned.
4. I would particularly like to thank Carmel who worked really hard at making special meals for me, she said she had not cooked vegan food before but she managed really well at the same time cooking for everyone else. She was a wonder. I also felt Mark and Carmel were very aware of everyone’s needs and capabilities and made sure everyone got as much out of the trip as they wanted and were able to achieve. They kept a close eye on everyone and made sure they were OK.
5. The group was a great size, we had 14, including. Mark and Carmel, and it meant we got to know everyone, we all managed to talk to everyone and yet not be “stuck” with anyone, we all got on very well and helped each other and looked out for each other. It was nice there was a variety of ages and backgrounds it made for interesting conversations.
So thank you Simone and your team for organising such a great holiday, I had been wanting to explore the Kimberley’s for several years and had kept putting it off but I am very glad I have now done this great trip. The countryside is very special and a beautiful part of Australia.

First of all a big thanks to Thommo and Gools.
It was a challenging camping trip for me and Janet, especially the first 2 days with pitching tents up and down, managing the swag and camp stretcher, scrambling over rocks and coping with the routine. It took us out of our comfort zone but we made with the help of Thommo and Gools, (plus great food every night – we especially love the Thai dish) and our camping companions. We can look back on a great experience.
Thank you.

Our trip had been on our radar for the past 2 years since we first came across Adventure Wild at the Caravan, Camping and Leisure show in Canberra Oct ’13. It was high on Marie’s bucket list and in October ’14 we decided to book our trip on the 2015 year.
So we took a month off work, departed Canberra to Darwin on 1/7/15 to escape the Canberra Winter and to get some colour up so were weren’t the proverbial snowflake prior to the tour and we had never been to Darwin, so ticked that off.
Knowing who our tour couple would be (Corf & Adey) and then meeting them in person in Canberra in March at another show, provided a great opportunity to ask any last minute questions etc. After 5 minutes it was like we had known each other for years, relaxed, talking about the adventure, my dietary needs (thanks Adey for looking after me). I was amazed at how both Corf and Adey made everyone feel safe, plenty of food and I still rave about how Adey just mysteriously made food appear and I heard nothing but great remarks.
The “Swag” rolling demonstration, detailed history of the areas and the characters that made the Kimberly’s (John Darcy) all added up to a well researched and interesting tour. I remarked to Marie this morning that the next tour (16) would be heading up Geikie Gorge today before heading back to Broome.
The team is truly professional and I have raved on to all since my return of just how great the trip was, how much fun we had and the places we visited. I have passed on your brochure, my Gibb River Road book and photos to my Daughter in Laws parents who are very keen to undertake the same trip.
It was the trip of a lifetime and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute, please pass on my appreciation to both Corf & Adey who made the trip what it was. If you guys are coming over in October for the Caravan show let me know, both Marie and I will come out wearing our Adventure Wild caps and catch up.
Thanks again for a truly magnificent trip.

We have travelled a lot and are quite discerning. We had not camped since our youth and had some trepidation about our forthcoming tour. Well, our reservations were soon dispelled. Our trip was one of the highlights of our lives. It would not have been possible without Carmel and Mark who tirelessly and effortlessly ensured that we all had a great time and introduced us to the splendours of the Kimberley.
We met great people who came from disparate backgrounds and soon found that we had much in common – the campfire and a couple of beverages contributed to the enjoyment. We thank Carmel and Mark and our fellow travellers for making it a very special trip.

Larry and I absolutely LOVED every second of our Adventure Wild Kimberley Tour. Our heartfelt thanks to Mark and Carmel for making the tour so memorable and hats off to you and the rest of the Adventure Wild team for all your hard behind the scenes work!

Thank you so much for looking after the “old chook” on my recent adventure.
I thoroughly enjoyed every day and every facet of the trip.
Your commentary was great and the food delicious. Maybe in another life you will be able to open up a restaurant.
I arived home to rain and cold so it was a big shock after all the lovely weather on the tour.
Take care

From the moment we booked the trip you were so prompt in giving us information and answering questions as soon as they were sent.
Nothing was too much trouble and your professionalism stood out.
The trip continued in the same manner with Greg & Choccy being the consummate leaders. They set out to give us a holiday to remember and they delivered in spades.
Their love of the Kimberley was clear, with us being the winners. We were introduced to spectacular gorges, the animals, birds, trees, flowers, aboriginal rock art to name a few – nothing escaped their attention.
Food was superb and we ate like kings. Just don’t know how Choccy finds enough time to create our feasts!
I particularly would like to thank Choccy and Greg for their care afforded to Marg being one of the slower gorge travellers. They were always there to lend a hand if needed and full of positive reinforcement.
Greg was a dream handling the vehicle and not once did Marg revisit her fear of unsealed roads.
To our wonderful leaders, thanks for your sense of humour, for the friendship you afforded each of us and for the great group of people we were lucky enough to share this special memorable time.
