Gary & Karen Adams

Hey Simone/Karl,

Just want to give a big thank you to all concerned at Adventure Wild.

Karen and I returned from our trip last Tuesday with Gools and Thommo and have to say we cannot speak highly enough of their and your efforts to make our trip one of the most memorable moments in our life.

From the first time we spoke to Karl, through to Simone’s organisation in making sure that we received all the information and bags as we did was outstanding.  Your synopsis of the trip and what to expect was spot on (early morning starts and rolling of those damn swags was all part of the fun).  The amenities were fine and quite “rustic” in parts.

In terms of our 12 day trip, both Karen and I agree that whilst the scenery was out of this world it was also the organisation of the two tour leaders that enhanced everything.  We cannot believe their enthusiasm in ensuring that all our needs were met and their knowledge of the Kimberley region is quite amazing.  The high quality of the food, their hygiene in preparing and serving the food and the regime they set for us in cleaning our plates left us in total awe.

We expected the trip to be good but didn’t for one second expect it to be of the highest quality that it was.  The group were fantastic fun and I appreciated the banter that we had within the group but also that with Gools and Thommo.

The additional flight from Broome to the Mitchell Falls was also outstanding.  It was very different to the one from El Questro in that we had the flight 4wd walk and helicopter flight and the Mitchell Falls …… well how does one start to describe them.

The only thing we missed out on was the planned whale watching tour due to the windy weather last Wednesday but that can hang over until next time.

Would we recommend this trip to others?  Most definitely but we would need to make sure that people are aware of the expectations and that some of the walks are not the easiest and require some climbing.  Karen and I loved the challenge as we haven’t camped for about a decade but found it and the walks heaps of fun particularly when there was the lure of a swim at the end of it.

If there no better recommendation of our tour leaders, it is the one where we are both certainly interested in participating in one of their organised overseas trips in the future.

Kind regards
