Good morning Simone

Thank you for this information and the whole trip was amazing and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

The pre tour service was very friendly and efficient and the information about the trip contains vital details that enabled me to be realistically prepared.

I am also grateful for the way my luggage was managed everything was waiting for me at agreed points as promised.

The itinerary included all the places that I wanted to see and more.  While the pace was steady I never felt rushed and could enjoy the moments.  I loved staying 2 nights in most places as that helped me to relax into the wonderful surroundings.

Carmel and Mark are very organised and gave clear instructions all along the way so I felt I was always adequately prepared for the event.

The meals were delicious with plenty of variety and best of all for me was the nutritious salads and vegetables on offer.  This takes very smart planning in isolated outback country.  Top marks to Carmel.  I am in awe of her energy and positive attitude towards making every meal into a feast even after or during long trips and hard walks.  She was very well supported by Mark too.  He has his specialties like his iron pot treats on the camp fire .

Campsites were  on the whole better than expected with a couple of standouts.  The set up tents are really good and I had plenty of rest and comfort on my swag.  Carmel and Mark were always on hand to help me roll mine.  I was rubbish at that and they cheerfully did it so as not to make me feel completely useless.

The tour guides were fantastic I cannot praise them enough. They are knowledgeable, energetic very organised and I felt safe and in excellent hands at all times.  They work extremely hard to ensure that everyone is enjoying the tour to the best of their ability.  They also had some wonderful treats planned  like champagne pre dinner drinks to watch the sunset over looking the Pentecost River.

They were very clear on making sure that the group understood the level of difficulty of each walk without putting contenders off.

Comfort generally was good especially the areas that could be controlled.  It is camping and every effort is made to do it well.

I liked my sleeping arrangement and the chairs around the campfire were comfortable for me.  The bus being air-conditioned was great as otherwise it would have been too hot.

Hygiene was well maintained and everyone completed the trip without any bugs.  I am on the fussy side of normal and I was more than comfortable with everything from food storage, preparation, serving and the cleanup. Well done all.

Thank you again and I will certainly be recommending Adventure Wild to my friends and relatives with a strong urge for them to do it while they are fit and able.

I wish you every success and hope your service to the Kimberly continues.

Kind regards
