It’s hard to know how to allocate your time in the Kimberley region when there’s such an abundance of things to see and do. Join Adventure Wild Kimberley Tours and let the experts guide you, so you can enjoy an unforgettable experience and travel the beautiful land of the Kimberley in safety, comfort and style.

With a maximum of 16 guests and two professional guides on every safari, the quality of safety and service is second to none. These intimate tour sizes allow you to soak up us much information as you can take from your hosts, who are mature, married couples working together and sharing their knowledge, passion, and experience to bring the Kimberley to life for their guests.

Learn all about the history, culture, flora and fauna of the region. Appreciate ancient Aboriginal rock art, walk through impressive natural gorges and swim in crystal clear water beneath stunning waterfalls.

The Kimberley region, almost twice the size of the state of Victoria is vast and rugged. The Kimberley Adventurer (KA12) travels throughout Australia’s North West from Broome to Broome over a 12 day period.

Explore authentic Australia via the Gibb River Road, the heartline of the Kimberley. Discover Windjana Gorge, Tunnel Creek, Bell, Galvan’s and Manning Gorges, Mt Barnett, Home Valley and El Questro Stations, Kununurra, the Ord River, Lake Argyle and the Bungle Bungles Ranges at Purnululu National Park. Spend your final night at an exclusive campsite on a working cattle station in Fitzroy Crossing before returning to Cable Beach and Broome.

Additional options include a scenic flight from El Questro Station to Mitchell Falls where you experience a drive, walk, swim and helicopter flight over the tiered falls. Alternatively take a cruise on Lake Argyle or the Ord River and/or a helicopter flight over the Beehive Domes of the Bungle Bungle Ranges. You can do it all!

Adventure Wild utilises established campgrounds with the best facilities available. With permanent campsites set up 10/11 nights of your journey, your tents are ready and awaiting your arrival. In this part of the world there’s no rush. Stay at four of the locations for two nights each, ensuring a relaxed journey through this timeless land. Enjoy a sunset drink with your new-found friends, sit at a table to dine beneath billions of stars and relax around a campfire every night. This is truly living.

Put your diet on hold as all meals and snacks are provided with freshly prepared home cooked meals. The all-inclusive price incorporates a free Adventure Wild canvas bag for packing, a 1.7 litre water canteen, a brand new sleeping bag that will be yours to keep and a free Geike Gorge cruise on the Fitzroy River on your final day.

Bring your own (BYO) alcohol and soft drinks and let Adventure Wild take care of

the rest. There is no single supplement and no requirement to share.

A reasonable level of fitness is required to hike into the spectacular gorges and other interesting places visited. Many of the walks include dry river beds and gorges where large rocks move underfoot, so stability is essential. Some walks include stepping up and climbing down into and out of river beds. As long as you’re healthy, active and are able to walk a few kilometres at a time, an Adventure Wild tour should be suited to you.

The Kimberley Adventurer tour is great value at $4550.00 per person. With one to two departures each week between May and September, you are sure to find a date to suit. We recommend allocating three weeks to maximise your time in Broome and the Dampier Peninsula before and after your 12 day tour.

Adventure Wild Kimberley Tours is a small family business focused on quality, affordable guided tours specialising exclusively in the Kimberley region. Locally owned and operated by Broome residents who have been exploring the region for over 21 years, they have the knowledge and passion to share.
