    Trip Reviews

    The meals were of a very high standard. Amazing what can be cooked with a camp kitchen & camp-oven. Shane & Robyn

    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

    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

    The experience was enhanced by having wonderful co travellers with us. Everyone was always pitching in and helping one another. Ivy & James

    The meals were incredible conjured up out of nowhere and all diets catered for with effortless ease. Jim & Sandy

    Our amazing tour guides were very caring, knowledgeable, great cooks, relaxed, and ensured that everyone was  happy, comfortable, and safe.  Noelene & Jim

    The driving was careful and safe and the Gibb River Road and track into Purnululu National Park were something to behold. David & Kay

    FAQs

    • Frequently Ask Questions

      Where am I going?
      The Kimberley is twice the size of Victoria covering approximately 243,000 square kilometres. The route we travel is approximately 2800 km’s over 12 days. The Gibb River Road and the access track into the Bungle Bungles are both corrugated roads. Our vehicles stop regularly, usually every hour on the rough roads. The longer days of travel are along the Great Northern Highway on our first and final two days back to Broome. The roads vary from sealed highways to rough dirt tracks. You can expect that dust will infiltrate some of our equipment during the journey.

Air conditioning is standard enabling comfortable travel in the harshest conditions. We have a PA system on board to keep you informed and entertained throughout your journey.

      How many people are on the tour? Who are my guides?
      A maximum of 16 guests will be in the group. We achieve a great blend of couples, independent travellers, and friends travelling together.

      This tour is unique as the only operator in the region to offer two experienced guides as hosts on every tour. This increases your safety and security as well as your level of personal service. In addition, our guides are mature, husband and wife teams who work together with unique compatibility and teamwork. They will share their passion and knowledge of this spectacular region with you.

      What will I sleep in?
      You are provided permanent campsites on 10 out of 11 nights with spacious Kodiak Flexbow tents set up and awaiting your arrival, allowing more time to relax and enjoy the beautiful Kimberley region.

      It is only whilst camping at the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation & Attractions (DBCA – National Parks) that you are required to set up and pull down your tent. On these occasions, we use an easy-to-assemble ‘Tourer’ style tent for couples and a three-person pop-up tent for independent travellers. Our tours are all-inclusive. You will be provided with all bedding including a swag, commercially laundered sleeping bag, sheets, pillow, and pillowcase. The swags have a mattress between 2 ½ and 3 inches thick that is enveloped in canvas to protect your linen during travel. There is a stool inside each tent.

      A limited number of canvas camp stretchers are available on request. The stretchers do not increase overall comfort, they are supplied for people with mobility difficulties or who have difficulty getting up and off ground level. The stretchers are available at a hire charge of $60 per stretcher per trip and MUST be pre-booked in advance. Please note there is a weight limit of 110 kg on hire of stretchers and the stretchers weigh approximately 13 kg and can be cumbersome to set up and pack down.

      I am travelling alone. Do I need to pay more or share a tent?
      No. There is no charge for a single supplement, nor do we expect you to share a tent with a stranger. Independent travellers have privacy without charge. Friends travelling together may also have a tent to themselves, where numbers allow, at our permanent campsites. Please note that should we need to set up or pack down a campsite, then your tent may be a smaller pop-up dome-style tent as opposed to the larger Tourer-style tent offered to couples or guests sharing.

      Do I need to help?
      Please be aware that this is a hands-on tour. You will need to set up and pull down your tent on the first night and yes, you will need to roll your own swag each time we change camp. Fortunately we have three 2-night stays and one 3-night stay, meaning we only change camp on
      occasions throughout the tour.

      Everyone ‘pitching-in’ with the loading and unloading of swags, luggage bags, chairs and tables is essential for a successful tour.
      Guests will also share dishwashing duties. The chores are not hard or strenuous and are a great way to get to know your fellow travellers.

      Are there toilets and showers?
      We have flushing toilets and showers at all campsites. The campsites vary between Department of Parks and Wildlife (DBCA) campgrounds and privately owned / managed caravan parks or cattle stations. The campsites we use are:
      • Windjana Gorge
      • Mt Barnett Station at Manning River
      • El Questro Station
      • Kununurra – Kimberleyland Caravan Park
      • Bungle Bungle Caravan Park or Purnululu National Park
      • Fitzroy Crossing – an Adventure Wild exclusive campsite on a working cattle station

      Do I need to bring food and drinks?
      All food is provided from morning tea on day one to lunch on day twelve. Please ensure you advise us when booking if you have any special medical dietary requirements. We will do our best to accommodate these. We are competent at catering for vegetarians, vegan, coeliac, lactose intolerance and similar medical dietary allergies.

      We have fresh fruit and snacks available to guests at all times.
      Breakfast Toast, Muesli, Cereal, Fruit, Tea, Coffee & Juice.
      Morning Tea Coffee, Tea, Milo, Cordial, Biscuits / Cake & Fruit
      Lunch Cold meats, Fresh Salads.
      Dinner Delicious roasts, tasty casseroles, curries and pasta are just some of the main courses. Aussie Damper, BBQ and other camp specials will help ‘tame’ that outdoors appetite.

      Your tour guides are very adventurous and you will be amazed at the meals and desserts they conjure up in ‘The Outback’! We sit at a table to dine, provide wine glasses and an eleven-night dinner party under a million stars.

      Food Preferences
      We cater to medical dietary requirements and will do our best to accommodate food preferences. Please take into consideration that you are one of 16 guests, we have limited storage and we are operating in a remote and rugged location where fresh supplies are not readily available after departure. We are camp cooking for a group in the remote outback so your flexibility to work with our guides will assist greatly. Food preferences cannot be guaranteed. Please discuss your preferences at the time of booking.

      Water & Water Bottles
      Please bring your own refillable water bottles. Adventure Wild strongly recommend two reusable water bottles per person, each 750mil – 1-litre capacity, insulated bottles. The water in the Kimberley is great to drink. Our vehicles hold 150 litres of water for consumption. Please be aware that some of the campsites that we utilise have bore water only. Please check with your guides prior to filling your water bottle at from taps at camp.

      BYO Alcohol Beverages and Soft Drinks.
      BYO alcohol and soft drinks. Please purchase any alcohol or soft drinks that you would like to take on tour, in Broome, on the day before departure. Due to alcohol restrictions in The Kimberley it is not possible to purchase alcohol prior to midday. Cask wine and fortified wine is also not available. Initially, you will need enough drinks to last you six nights. We will restock in Kununurra. The tour will supply an esky and ice to cool your drinks. If you are drinking beer please bring cans rather than stubbies (bottles), however, if your favourite beer comes in a bottle, please buy what you prefer to drink. The reason we prefer cans is because there is no rubbish collection in the outback. We crush cans and take them with us. Bottles of wine are fine! Your alcohol is not included in your luggage limit. We do not have an alcohol limit so please bring whatever you would like to drink, it is your holiday so relax and enjoy!

      Packing
      Due to the time we are on the road and the rugged conditions we encounter, space is at a premium. We cannot accommodate suitcases or hard-framed luggage. The tour will supply guests a soft-sided bag for use on the tour and this is yours to keep. This bag will be posted to you in advance or delivered to your accommodation on the day of your arrival in Broome. We have a capacity limit of 15kg. Please also bring a small backpack to store your camera and personal items for daytime use.

      Towels are not provided. For swimming, sarongs (or similar) are lightweight, quick drying, and perfect for daytime use. We also recommend microfiber towels for showering as they will dry quickly and easily on tour. Please do not overpack, one set of warm clothing is all that you will require. There should be room to spare inside your bag.

      What if I have additional luggage?
      There are facilities to store extra luggage for you in Broome. We will pick up your excess bags on the morning of departure and deliver them to your accommodation of choice on your final day. A standard pick-up/drop-off fee of $25.00 is applicable. We offer this service to you so that you don’t have to worry about excess luggage.

      If you are leaving the tour in Kununurra, Greyhound Freight Service can transport excess baggage should we have insufficient room on the vehicle to accommodate your bags. http://www.greyhoundfreight.com.au

      Do I need to be fit?
      A reasonable level of fitness is required to hike into the spectacular gorges and other interesting places we visit. Guests need to be capable of walking up to five kilometres through bushland and over uneven ground in the Kimberley warmth. The weather will average 28 to 32 degrees every day, with higher temperatures in early May and from mid-August.

      The walks include dry riverbeds and gorges where large rocks move underfoot, so stability is essential. Many of the walks include stepping up and climbing down into and out of riverbeds, at times clambering over and around rocks. We ask that you be healthy, active and be able to walk a few kilometres at a time.

      Medical Conditions / Medication
      Should you suffer from any medical condition that may impede your suitability to travel, please discuss your abilities or condition with us. Please ensure you bring your correct medication and sufficient quantities for the duration of the trip. We can refrigerate medication for you as required.

      I am driving to Broome, where can I store my car, caravan or camper trailer?
      If you are driving to Broome, it is possible for you to store your car, caravan, or campervan, whilst you are on tour. There is a fee of $10 per day for 12 nights. The vehicle/s will need to be stored at our premises the afternoon prior to your tour departure.

      It is not possible to stay on site, therefore one night’s accommodation pre-tour will need to be arranged.

      In the alternate, there are several options with various pricing and facilities available. Please be aware that this option and any arrangements are independent to your tour.

      Do I need travel insurance?
      Absolutely. Travel Insurance is essential when travelling in remote areas of Australia. It is important that your insurance includes medical evacuation. There are some areas along the Gibb River Road that an ambulance cannot attend due to time, distance, and fuel constraints. Accidents, Inclement weather, road closures, and vehicle breakdowns can all result in missed connections, lost or damaged luggage or injury.

      Please ensure that you have comprehensive travel insurance cover from the time of reservation.

      In case of an emergency?
      There is limited mobile communication between Broome and El Questro Station.

We are in regular communication with your guides and your accommodation locations. Satellite telephones are carried by our staff and we have procedures in place to ensure messages will reach you as soon as possible.

      Emergency Response

      All of our vehicles carry satellite telephones, these are modern SAT sleeves that connect with smartphone technology, allowing immediate access to all telephone numbers and information stored in our telephones.

      In addition, our guides carry two-way radios on walks and we have UHF radio on board the coach. Our network with local station owners, nursing posts, and businesses is very comprehensive.

      Having two mature guides on every tour certainly increases safety for our guests, in addition to a greater ability to respond, manage, and coordinate any accident or injury that occurs. The second guide is also able to care and manage the non-injure passengers. Both guides are qualified with Senior First Aid training, they both drive our trucks and tow our trailers, and are all very adept at managing all circumstances.

      Guides are supported 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by the operator, who are extremely experienced in emergency management. In the case of an accident or injury, the owners assist in coordinating the required response, Ambulance, RFDS, charter flights, etc from Broome. In addition to communicating with family and insurance companies.

      Assistance is provided with arranging accommodation, flights, and cancelling advance reservations at our guests request. We provide letters of support and all the relevant information and documentation for any subsequent insurance claim, making the process as fluid as possible.

      We actively work towards minimising risk or injury to any of our guests, however, accidents can happen. We are confident that our abilities, response, and assistance to our guests in these circumstances ensure the best possible outcomes for all. Our personalised service is
