Testimonial for Adventure Wild

Joanne & Patrick Puckett

Year of Tour: 2017

Just about everything on this trip was terrific.  Our guides, Liz and Phil, had such a passion for their job and for the Kimberley – the flora, fauna, and indigenous history and culture.  Their knowledge was amazing.  Nothing was too much trouble for them.  They even lent me there camera when mine died half way through the trip.

Our fellow travellers all got along so well – we had so much fun – lots of laughs – everyone pitched in – and they were fantastic with our kids (the only kids on the trip). BTW this trip is suitable for teenage kids who enjoy the outdoors – though they were hanging out for Wi-Fi by the time we arrived in Kununurra!

The Kimberley itself was amazing.  Beautiful gorges, fascinating rock art, wide open spaces, plenty of interesting plant species and animals.  Even the bumpy Gibb River Road with all its water crossings, was a terrific experience.  Campsites were all clean with a mix in standards of amenities.  All had flushing toilets and showers (usually hot).

The truck we travelled on was very comfortable.  All meals were excellent with plenty of fresh fruit and healthy snacks available between meals.  There was plenty of room for 2 people in the tents which were permanently set up in all but 1 campsite.  The swags that were provided were comfortable, with everyone receiving their own pillow, pillowslip, base sheet and sleeping bag for the entire trip.  We just rolled them all up together in the swag when it was time to move on to the next campsite.

All in all a sensational trip.  Thanks Queen Liz and Prince Phillip and thanks Adventure Wild.
