Hi

As you can imagine, we finally came back from Australia, even if we have been offered an extra couple of days in Perth by Qantas, when their CEO grounded the planes.

To go back to our tour with Kimberley Adventure Tour, we really loved it.

What we appreciated the most:

 • Simon, our guide : really a nice, cool guy but also a good professional. We found his very responsible, able to react when needed, but never stressful to us. We really appreciated to shared his explanations on the sites but also about life and local habits
 • The way it was organized : good food (fresh for picnic and cooked for dinner) and material (swags)
 • The places where we camped (well-chosen and really beautiful)
 • Sleeping under the stars and moon
 • Being into the water every day, often several times a day
 • Having a beer / coke with dips and crackers, to rest before dinner
 • And, of course, the places that we visited. Everyone mentions beautiful Lake Argyle but we also found Bungle Bungles, Manning Gorge and Bell Gorge awesome

What could be improved:

 • Our group was 6 people + Simon, which means 5 people at the back. We could not imagine to be 8.

As a conclusion, even though we could not do it last year, we are truly glad to been able to take this tour this year and would like to thank you, once again, for your time and advices. Cheers.

JM and Murielle, France

Hi Tim.

Michael and I had a fantastic trip - great company and guide. On a rating of 1-10 I would give it an 8.

I guess personally I would have liked a little more interpretation of information and visits to rock art sites but fully understand the time constraints. A better itinerary up front too could have helped me follow the trip better as I don't know the area at all.

I am keen to go back and see Mitchell Plateau and sites out of Broome such as the Cape etc. so if you have any suggestions, would love to hear them - including best time of year and sites.

I hear you did the trip before us too! I will have a look at your video. We took a lot of photos with a Nikon D7000 so when I have edited, I will upload and send you the link to view, if you wish.

Regards Pauline - Australia

Alessandra. I was really scarred when we had the meeting with Greig (Guide), he told me a lot of stuff and I thought oh my God this gonna be a really challenge for me because as I'm not used to doing all this stuff, even camping, even sleeping in swags, this was the best, like I was worried for all the insects and animals coming in, but now I can say it was the best thing, I really enjoyed sleeping in the swags and looking at the sky and the stars, yes I really enjoyed it.

Fillipo. Yeh I agree with Alessandra, there were really beautiful places where to walk and where to sleep, like sleep on the beach, and enjoy the stars, and the fresh weather from the Kimberley

Would you recommend it?

Absolutely, Yes Absolutely.

Hey Guys if you want to explore Australia and a part of the Kimberleys, this is a great way to do it. Sleeping in Swags, camping on campfires (campsites) that you make yourselves, you don't have a shower for a long time but I tell you, you swim in the lakes and that is just amazing.

You will love it, go for it.

Oh the Food was so good, seriously I loved it. Everything, just cooking it yourself, just preparing it with the team, even coming up with your own recipes, it's all possible here.

Hi I'm May, I had a fantastic time travelling along on the Kimberley Trail, I love sleeping under the starts, waking up to the birds, getting off the beaten track, exploring things that I otherwise wouldn't have been able to see, swimming in private waterholes, it was fabulous!

Would you recommend it to others?

I'd definitely recommend it to others.

I'm Phyllis, I'm from Adelaide originally, I signed up for this tour cause I wanted to see the Kimberley, and I saw that, and I did lots of swimming, and sleeping under the stars, which was really cool. So if you want to see the Kimberley in safe, but fun way, it's definitely a tour for you.
