Brett & Marie Petherbridge

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.
