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
I am now back home from my Kimberley tour with your Company and am beginning to digest the experience. Thank you for all the work you and your team put in to plan and organise these tours. Greg and Choccy looked after us very capably; I am very grateful for their willingness to “take the extra step” to make sure all of us enjoyed our tour. They worked hard and I must say their catering was excellent!
I must say I will be reporting enthusiastically to my friends on our tour. In the meantime I have hundreds of photographs to sort through, picking out the best, from which I can illustrate where we went and what we did. It was great. Good company, good experiences, what more can I say? I’ll have to settle to a big “Thank you” to you all.

We thoroughly enjoyed our “Adventure Wild” tour and being first time campers it was an excellent experience for us. Thommo and Gools were outstanding tour guides covering all necessities that made a very successful tour. The Kimberleys are an amazing place and we had the privilege of seeing and learning about this beautiful region of Australia.We wish Thommo and Gools and the company the best of luck.

On behalf of Michael and myself, I would like to provide feedback in relation to our Kimberley experience. Co-ordination, prior to the trip was without fault, with the information provided greatly appreciated and most useful. The trip far exceeded our expectations in every way, and is a testament to our wonderful “Tour Guides”, Thommo and Gools. Michael and I feel privileged to have been assigned these 1st Class Guides and hope we have a chance to catch up with them again in the future. By the end of the tour, we felt like part of their family. They were genuinely interested in the lives of all on the tour, and appropriately shared their travel experiences with us all. Members of the tour group were most compatible, and we hope they will visit us in Tasmania or we will catch up with them when we visit the “big island”.
Thommo and Gools were extremely well organised, and by the end of the trip, I think they had us all organised too. Our travelling companions, who had never “camped” before, soon adapted to the “great outdoors” and with a bit of guidance and support, enjoyed the tour as much as those of us who are seasoned campers. Their passion, knowledge and understanding of the Kimberley region was amazing. We learned so much about the area, the original land owners, and the farming communities from them both. A highlight was a visit by one of the “Elders”. Sitting around the campfire at night was magic for me. The camp-fire is why I’m so enthusiastic about camping.
Meal preparation via the camp kitchen never ceased to amaze us all. Barramundi poached in White Wine was one of the delectable meals we enjoyed. Quality, quantity and variety could not be faulted. Just shows what can be achieved with adequate equipment, careful planning and organisational skills. Whilst facilities at campsites varied, this all added to the outdoor experience. Having tents already erected on three occasions was most welcome, especially at the end of the long days travelling and trekking. As “Adventures Wild” tours are “wild adventures at their best”, making it too comfortable may detract from the intended outback experience.
The poor truck – not sure how it survives the rough terrain at times. Thommo and Gools take good care of your equipment and do everything possible to ensure we are as comfortable as possible. The water canteens and sleeping bags will be passed on to our grandchildren who also love the outdoor experiences, hiking and camping etc. We coped well with the pace of the tour and were pleasantly surprised with our capacity to comfortably complete all the walks. The scenery along the way and the final destinations made it all worthwhile. In retrospect, we believe 11 nights was long enough, and I’m sure we saw “the best” of the amazing Kimberley. We will most certainly pass on your tour brochures to our friends and will suggest they choose “Thommo and Gools” if they decide to book a tour with you.
Our photos reflect our amazing experiences, meeting other travellers, and being fortunate enough to meet and get to know Thommo and Gools. Memories to treasure for-ever.

I am writing to express my appreciation to Corf and Adey for a fantastic holiday made all the better by their willing cheerfulness, good humour, knowledge and care for all of us. What a team! Despite the remoteness of the region, I always felt safe and secure (although I ensured my tent was zipped up) . We didn’t have to think too hard – Corf and Adey’s knowledge helped us decide on which activities to choose so that we could just enjoy the best of the Kimberley. Food was great and plenty of it. Great campfires, tall stories and good company. The trip was all I had hoped for and more. Now back to Perth, work and reality!

It’s been a while but am finally getting around to thank Adventure Wild for an excellent tour of the Kimberley. Having the opportunity to sleep under the starlit skies in a swag each night was a wonderful experience. Greg and Choccy were so knowledgeable, helpful and extremely well organised. Greg managed to drive us safely over long distances to view all the best sites, arriving well before the larger bus companies. So many beautiful places it’s hard to pick a favourite. Choccy managed to produce a delicious feast every evening making sure no one ever went hungry. Of course breakfast, morning teas and lunches were just as yummy. I was fortunate to be in the company of a lovely fun group of people who willingly helped each other in many ways. Nothing was too much trouble for Greg and Choccy and I much appreciated their assistance when scrambling over the rocks. I have a wide circle of friends here in Newcastle and have been telling everyone what a fabulous time I had on this tour. Thank you so much for a most memorable experience.

From my first conversation with Rory I knew we had chosen the best company to do this Adventure to the Kimberleys with and what a great adventure it was, Gools and Thommo made our trip so memorable their passion and knowledge is exceptional. Beautiful food, great stories, lots of laughs with a good bunch of fellow travellers and wonderful scenery. We will always remember this tour as one of the best and to anyone considering going to the Kimberleys we say go with Adventure Wild you certainly will not be sorry!!
Thank you Rory, Simone, Thommo and Gools for this wonderful adventure.

Just a note to let you know how much I enjoyed Adventure Wild – Broome to Broome Tour 18 – July 25 2014. Thommo and Gools are true Kimberley Diamonds – their knowledge, respect, enthusiasm and love of the Kimberley was outstanding and inspiring. The care of their passengers was second to none – from helping roll swags, cooking fantastic food through to fixing brakes and cutting firewood. Everything was done in such a professional manner while always sharing stories and having great fun but taking care of those on board.
I would like to say the biggest thank you to Thommo and Gools and the wonderful group of people who shared Tour 18 with me. This trip certainly had an impact on me – a truly special time and place that I hope to visit again.
Thank you again.

We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our camping trip with Adventure Wild recently. Thommo and Gools are the ideal good humoured professionals, inspiring all of our group to be the happy campers we were from the word go! Their thoughtful leadership, care for our welfare, energetic organisation, information, the beautiful food, were all terrific. As the seniors of the group, we appreciated the whole experience. Thank you.

I have just returned from my adventure with Adey and Corf. It far exceeded my expectations. The camp sites were full of fun, from the tents, the swags, camp fires and the mouth watering food. The sights were always so interesting and the wild life got us all excited. Adey and Corf gave us a feeling of total security in all we participated. Their constant happy demeanour was quickly taken up by the group. The professional manner in which the company is run is outstanding. Anyone reading this — put it on your bucket list!
