AI summary of 116 reviews
Travellers consistently praise the guides, who are described as knowledgeable, enthusiastic and hardworking, often taking on driving, cooking and camp organisation while sharing information about the region's geography, history and Indigenous culture. The scenery and range of activities stand out most often, with reviewers repeatedly highlighting Karijini National Park, swimming with whale sharks and manta rays, feeding dolphins at Monkey Mia, snorkelling at Coral Bay and camping in swags under the stars, alongside generally well-received and varied food that caters for vegetarians and vegans. Many note the strong sense of group camaraderie and the shared cooking and cleaning duties. The most common caveat is the substantial amount of driving over long distances and early morning starts, along with the tight itinerary that limits time at some stops. A smaller number of reviewers mention cold nights when camping, basic or repetitive lunches, variable accommodation quality, and occasional issues with the vehicles or facilities.
How we collect and publish reviews
Where they come from. Our reviews are gathered from independent review sites and from guests who share feedback with us directly after their trip. They come from people who have actually travelled on the tour.
Why some are edited. Many of our guests travel in their second or third language. Where a review is hard to read, we lightly edit spelling, grammar and punctuation, or paraphrase a sentence for clarity. We never change the rating, the meaning or the sentiment, and we never write a review on a guest's behalf.
Reading the originals. Reviews sourced from public review sites appear there in their original form, and can be read in full at their original source at any time.
The tour itself was great and Wokka, our guide, was very good. The vehicles were the weak point though — the Perth to Exmouth bus had almost no storage and a broken seat latch, and the Exmouth to Broome bus had seat backs so high you could barely see the countryside going past.
A wonderful trip from Perth to Broome and on from Broome to Darwin with Adventure Tours. It is a gorgeous part of the country and our guides Jenai and Rik were fantastic.
The ten days from Perth to Broome were everything I had pictured and more, thanks to our guide Jenai. I ticked off bucket list items like swimming with whale sharks and manta rays, and saw the best of Western Australia along with some hidden gems. I met a great group of people, with riddles and drawings to pass the long drives and family dinners in the evening. I would recommend it to solo travellers and groups, young or old.
The Perth to Broome trip in May was an amazing experience. Our guide Jenai was helpful, friendly and kind, a great leader, and she can cook too. Thank you Jenai for going above and beyond. I will be looking to use this company again for future trips.
An amazing time on the Perth to Broome tour with Jenai. All the stops were incredible and the meals included were great. Our group was friendly and I met a lot of lovely people. Highly recommended and I would love to go back some time.
Flik was the most amazing guide: professional, fun, full of great stories and she took wonderful care of us. The itinerary is perfect, and the optional manta ray and whale shark swims finished it off beautifully. Some hostels were better than others, but the campsite and swag night were surprisingly comfortable.
“Amazing experience ”
One of the best experiences I've ever done and I'm sure I'll remember it for the rest of my life! Our tour guide Hannah was passionate, knowledgeable and attentive. The tour is very organised and I liked the feeling of community within the group where we helped cooked and cleaned up. I'm so glad I went out of my comfort zone and slept in swags as they were warm and cosy even in 5 degree weather. If you're on the fence about this just book it!
“Swags, hikes, marshmallows, stars”
What a fantastic tour! Hannah was such a pleasure, she made sure everything was organised, made sure we all had fun and answered all our questions. Couldn't recommend it more, we had such a lovely group and I'm so sad to leave! The swags were a great experience and the food was fantastic. Would definitely go back on an Australian Tour again.
“Can‘t give as much stars as I saw.”
Great experience! Kings Canyon was really impressive. Asha did a great job at making us feel at home sleeping outside under the stars. The tour was well planed and made very comfortable. 5/5
“Authentic trip to the outback”
The trip was the perfect length to experience the outback. The camping was basic and a good experience with ample food prepared but the friend and knowledge guide.
High recommend
“Great experience”
Lovely trip. Our guide was great with a lot of fun facts. The itinerary was very well organised and we had a wonderful time.
“10-Day Trip to the Australian Outback”
The trip with Australian Adventure Tours was very well organized and our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. Overall, we had a great time, although the first night was bitter cold, and the tents had no form of heating.
The program was a little bit rushed, though; and we did not get much sleep, having to wake up at around 5:00 - 5:30 am in the freezing cold, three days in a row.
“Perfect trip in the NT”
Superb trip in Kakadu and Arnhem Land - plenty of swimming along the way.
We did the five-day trip with Rick as our guide. Camping in powered camps, good facilities, including pools, and great food. The participatory nature of this trip makes it a really positive experience. Got a great upgrade to more luxurious tents, too, on night three! Out first two nights were in the same camp - a bonus.
A few tips: we overpacked and took too much clothes. It was much warmer than we thought at night.
Lots of swimming opportunities, some trekking, and crocs-a-plenty. A great introduction to the NT Outback.
Some good excursions included. I’d recommend the scenic flight at Kakadu and also the Katherine
“Outstanding experience of the Northern Territory outback”
We covered so much ground. Rick our guide couldn’t have done more for us. Although the temperatures hit 35 degrees, his enthusiasm never waned. An exhilarating 5 day outback experience in Kakadu, Arnhem Land, Katherine & Litchfield Park, made extra special by Rick.
My only minor quibble would be that I thought it was a lot for Rick to be expected to drive long hours, then act as tour guide and cook etc etc. I think having an extra person on hand would have eased the workload for him somewhat.
“Excellent camping adventure!”
We had a great camping experience and our tour guide Tye was great, funny, knowledgeable, and made the trip a fantastic experience! Would highly reccomend this camping tour.
“Good not great”
Bit of confusion around pick up times - Mitch the guide had a completely different time to our joining instructions but no harm done
Tour itself good - but that’s not hard given you’re visiting some of the most beautiful landscapes on the planet
The aforementioned Mitch was a great guide - friendly and knowledgeable
The big let down for us was the catering and beverages
Food was ok
When we did a similar trip 25 years ago we had champagne at sunset, nice canapés, the option of beers by the fireside at camp
I noted that other trips had champagne and nice canapés and the camp next to us had marshmallows after dinner for the fire - nice touches
There was none of that on our trip
Very very basic tbh
Disappointing
Perhaps I missed the reference to budget trip somewhere when we booked it? Lost in Australia (the agent I booked with some months ago) didn’t mention it either
So adventure tours - either be clear it’s a budget trip or up your game cos your competitors have
“What else's”
What a nice tour, with a nice tour guide name MITCH, who knows his way around, lot of good stories about the culture, good cooking.
“Too much for little”
The staff was enthusiastic, but the poor circumstances will not substitute with this.
The trip was too expensive for that: no electricity, no hygiene in tbe kitchen area, we had to washing up, to clear everything if its happenrd because of the dust...
The conditions were primitive-under the basic level...
“An unforgettable experience exploring Uluru and the Australian O”
This tour was excellent, and thanks to it, I had an unforgettable visit to Uluru and Kata Tjuta. My only regret was that I didn’t plan to stay longer! Hats off to our superwoman guide, Sophie! I am grateful to her for driving the van, managing the camp, setting up the meals and snacks, and just keeping us all informed and on schedule. She was also extremely knowledgeable about Uluru and aboriginal culture and briefed us on how to be respectful of the sites. In fact, all of the group (about 15 or so in total) were pleasant, cooperative, and considerate. Plus, they had interesting backgrounds and travel stories to share. We also covered a lot—even for two days! This whole experience was the absolute highlight of my visit to Australia!
I also enjoyed the camping experience. Though I have only camped out a small handful of times in my life, I had a good time camping in the Outback. How unforgettable it was to be so close to Uluru and also see the plentiful stars in the night sky! We took turns cleaning the dining area and were responsible for keeping our own tents tidy. The tents didn’t have their own lighting, but each had their own mini generators for you to plug in any devices/appliances. There were also USB ports for me to directly charge my phone. The meals are prepared by the staff, and we had good lunches/dinners and simple but filling breakfasts. The bathrooms were communal and being shared with other groups. I wouldn’t say they were the cleanest, but they were an appreciated amenity nonetheless. I highly recommend this tour!
“Amazing”
Lovely experience with tour guide Tye- professional service, well planned & executed, humours & friendly, helpful & caring, always available & at times went 'above & beyond' - will highly recommend him
“Supertrip from Darwin, hiking and swimming in the most beautiful”
10day trip to Arnhemland and further south, Katherine gorge and litchfield. Many kilometers covered, but in pleasant alternation of beautiful places. Lots of nature, opportunities for hiking, culture of cycling nation People. Second part was more swimming on beautiful hidden lagoons of waterfalls. Group size limited to 14p.
“Amazing tour!”
I travelled with my son and my 78 yo mother. The whole trip was very well organised. We had amazing Australian outback experience. The swag was very warm and comfortable overnight. Our tour guide Ryan has a good sense of humour and is professional with a kind heart. I would come back for another trip with them very soon.
“YAY”
Very good trip, lots to do and very well informed, loved kings canyon. Mitch was great and even lent me his trackies so I didn’t freeze because I forgot mine! :))))
“The sweet chilli sauce group.”
What a great tour, thankyou Hannah our tour guide, very compident, excellent chef, navigator and driver, and most friendly.
“A truly wonderful experience”
Asher was such an incredible and knowledgeable guide, she and Elise (whose tour was running along the same route as ours) shared so many wonderful stories and offered insight into the Aṉangu people and their rich history. I’ll absolutely be recommending this tour to my friends who have yet to visit Uluṟu, Kata Tjuṯa and Watarrka.
“Great tour !”
Fantastic trip. Mitch was a great guide. Loved the sunset and sunrise at Uluru and the Kings Canyon hike was a highlight. Mitch cooked up some great food and met lovely people also on tour .
“A BIRTHDAY TO REMEMBER”
My partner and I booked the Red Centre 10 DAY swag tour for my birthday, and it was unforgettable! On the first night, our guide Ty surprised me with cake and everyone sang happy birthday – such a special moment with complete strangers. Our guide, Ty, truly made the experience from start to finish. He went above and beyond, sharing his knowledge and genuine passion for Uluru, which added so much to the trip. His (admittedly cringey but funny) jokes kept everyone laughing. Our group was made up of people from all over the world, and camping under the stars was a definite highlight – we even saw a shooting star! The Field of Lights Star Pass excursion was 100% worth it, and Ty kindly dropped us off and picked us up. The food was varied and delicious, perfect after the long hikes. All in all, an incredible experience I’d highly recommend! Thanks so much again Ty - from Rosie & Anant
“Great places and great guide”
Rick is a charismatic guide that has
All the Aussie humour. This tour is like most, with early mornings and packed days. There is a lot of driving but even then you see a lot. These days we’ve seen so much wildlife and beautiful places. Rick knows a lot about the aboriginal people and tells the stories. He also knows a lot about wildlife and tells you eagerly. We’ve seen great things and I would recommend his tour definitely!
“Best experience of my life”
Tye was an outstanding guide for our Uluru and Red Centre trip. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, respectful, and attentive — always making sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying themselves. He handled everything from driving to cooking, and even kept spirits high with his well-timed dad jokes. Couldn’t have asked for a better guide to experience this beautiful part of Australia.
An unforgettable trip from Perth to Broome with our guide Michael, and then Broome to Darwin with Rick. The activities and accommodation were great and so was the food. A fantastic adventure.
“Hanna’s group”
Hanna is amazing — a caring and thoughtful tour guide.
She’s not only a skilled driver, but also a great chef and an excellent guide.
Thanks to her, this trip has become an unforgettable holiday.
“Lorrie Made Our Trip Unforgettable!”
We absolutely loved having Lorrie as our tour guide! From the moment the trip started, she brought such good vibes — great energy, fun chats on the bus, and loads of knowledge about the area. She was super organised and proactive, making sure we got the most out of every moment of our day. Thanks to her, we caught the best sunrise spots and were even the first ones in the canyon (such a magic experience!).
What made it extra special is that it didn’t just feel like a guide–guest relationship — Lorrie quickly became a friend. We woke up to nice music each morning, were kept well-fed with her delicious cooking, and always felt the positive atmosphere she created. Couldn’t recommend her enough — she truly made our trip unforgettable!
“Amazing experience, would recommend to everyone!”
Excellent trip, such a unique experience, so much fun, beautiful part of the country, camping under the stars was incredible, I loved every second. Mitch was an excellent guide with so much local knowledge and enthusiasm.
“Uluru in August with Lorrie”
Did this experience with 10 other girls through OceanZen Travel Company, we had Lorrie as our guide but she just felt apart of our holiday/crew as she joined in on the fun and adventure. She was very knowledgeable, caring and kept us on time for our schedule. Absolutely recommend Lorrie for your adventures.
“Top”
Great stay.
Mitch, our guide, was great!
The camps, especially on swag nights, were well organized. The visits were beautiful.
“Fabulous tour - Exceeded expectations”
Awesome knowledgeable Guide, Great tour & Good food.
Was a quick tour after the 4day stage race on Larapinta and this rounded out such a wonderful holiday
“Tye Made Our Trip Unforgettable”
Tye’s great! The whole trip was so smooth and he really did a good job to arrange everything! Best experience ever and we even found wild camels on the road!
The trip from Perth to Broome was terrific. The scenery was beautiful, our group was great and our guide went well beyond what was needed. I would recommend it.
A wonderful trip from Perth to Broome. There is a lot of driving, but Michael knew how to keep the group entertained, and he cooked the best food you could hope for on a trip like this. Ten very happy days and a guide who really made it.
What an experience. I loved my trip from Perth to Broome. Big thanks to our guide Flick for the care, the stories, the cooking and much more besides.
The Perth to Broome trip packed an incredible number of activities into ten days, from swimming with whale sharks and dolphins to stunning hikes through Karijini. Our guide Michael made the difference - passionate, knowledgeable, and going well beyond with his cooking and making sure everyone felt supported on hikes and while camping. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see the best of Western Australia.
“Best experience ever”
Just finished Perth to Broome tour and had the privilege to had this amazing experience shared with a lovely group of people and the best tour guide ever. From seeing dolphins on Monkey Mia to snorkel with the manta rays in coral bay and swim with the whale sharks in exmouth… all of these water experiences would leave someone speechless. To add up we did the best hike / gorges in Karijini and chilled in the natural lakes, and of course stargazed at night. What a privilege to have done all of these during our 10 day trip. What made the absolute difference here was Michael, our tour guide, he was 11/10, with an incredible historical knowledge (and geological) provided us the best food I have ever had on this type of trips and was always restless giving us the best experience ever.
We left Perth in April on the ten day trip to Broome and it was fabulous. Our guide Michael had outstanding knowledge of Western Australian history, both Indigenous and colonial. There were twenty of us aged from nineteen to seventy-two, and our leader turned us into a friendly team who are still in touch. A great adventure with a varied itinerary taking in the coast and inland national parks.
A fantastic stretch of the country from Perth to Broome, and we were lucky to have one of the best guides to bring it to life. The stops are stunning, with gorgeous beaches, deep gorges perfect for swimming and plenty of sunsets. The drives are long, but Michael's commentary helped pass the time. He handled the logistics seamlessly, made trying new things like abseiling comfortable, and kept everyone well fed after long days exploring.
I have been on many tours in Australia but the Perth to Broome trip beat them all - one highlight after another, including humpback whales, dolphins, whale sharks, manta rays, turtles and swimming in gorges. Our group was great and so was our guide Michael, with his energy and his knowledge of geography and history. He cooked us a fine meal every evening and we even had pancakes or French toast in the morning, which I have never had on any other trip.
“Amazing”
Rhonda and I did 10 day tour Perth to Broome leaving 19th April. Michael was amazing. We had people from many countries and all ages from 19 to 72. Michael could communicate at all levels and was very knowledgeable about all aspects of our tour. He was helpful and considerate and looked after all our needs extremely well. We would have no hesitation in recommending this tour and Michael to everyone. If we could give him 10 stars out of 5 we would.
“beyond expectations”
This trip went above and beyond expectations. Food, experiences and a great group of people but most of all our tour guide Michael. His non stop attention to detail, hard work, knowledge and sense of humor made this trip unforgettable.
Planning our next Adventure Tour.
“Amazing tour of the West Coast”
What an incredible trip! We travelled from Perth to Broome as a group of 14 people with our two brilliant guides Aaron and Mel. From start to finish, the tour was well paced, organised and enjoyable, which is all thanks to our two guides.
On this tour you can see a lot of the West Coast in a short amount of time, some of the highlights being Kalbarri and Karijini NPs, Exmouth and Monkey Mia. We were very lucky and saw lots of Australian wildlife on the tour including dolphins, whale sharks, humpback whales, a mantra ray, wallabies and emus.
The food was tasty and the dinners surprisingly varied given the amount of time we were on the road.
I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to get a taste of Australia’s beautiful West Coast.
“Amazing west coast (Perth-Broome)”
What an experience! I had the most Amazone time in my 10-day trip from Perth to Broome. The west coast had so many beautyful places, this tour was the ultimate way to experience it al.
Mel and Aaron were our tourguides and They did such an amazing job. They told is about culture, nature and history, they cooked amazing dishes and lept is entertained
And the group, there were 14 of is and everybody helped eachothen, we laught, told stories and enjoyed all the beauty the west coast offered us.
Dolphins in monkey Mia, swimming with whalesharks, gorges in Karijini park, camping in Swag’s, its all there.
All food is included and very good, transport was a 4WD bus, we had plenty of space.
I would definitely reccomend this tour, I would love to go again!
We did the Perth to Broome and then Broome to Darwin trips. Our guide Adam went above and beyond to make sure we hit all the best spots, gave us plenty of information and kept us comfortable. He also cooked us excellent dinners every night and kept us entertained.
“Exceptional”
The highlight of the tour was Mel, the tour guide. She was a fountain of knowledge, a ray of sunshine, a bundle of energy and such a pleasure to spend 10 days with. Mel made everyone to have fun, feel safe and comfortable and she helped the whole group to bond and we all became great friends very quickly!
The food was exceptional, Mel went above and beyond to provide us with variety across the whole trip even though we were using hostel kitchens and campsite bbq equipment. Even the vegans and vegetarians had fantastic meals throughout the trip.
There was a lot of driving as the west coast is a long way but totally worth every minute spent in the bus. Mel made sure to keep us in the loop at all times about when the next toilet/food stop was and after all "any tree is a lava - tree (tory)".
Advice would be to stay in Perth for at least a couple days before the tour and then book accomodation in Broome for a week as well. Broome and Karijini were the highlights of the tour for me.
An amazing tour. Lucy and Tom were very knowledgeable guides, the food was great and we visited some of the most beautiful places on earth. I'd definitely recommend it.
“Lets go!”
I just got back from one of the best trips of my life (and I've been on a lot of trips) and I have to say, it was amazing. I met some awesome people and had experiences I'll never forget like abseiling and snorkeling with whale sharks. Big shoutout to our guide for making the whole thing so great and for taking us to some of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. If you're thinking about taking a trip to discover Western Australia, do it! You won't regret it.
“10 days Perth to Broome adventure”
This is the perfect tour for all who likes to travel in Western Australia with a group and in an uncomplicated way. The tour was great. We have seen many interesting and beautiful places. It was a mix between hiking, sightseeing and other activities. The tour guide/driver Warwick was really good and explained a lot during the long rides. Everything was well organized and the dinner was varied and good. For lunch we got mostly wraps and sometimes toast.
There was one highlight after the other: The awesome Pinnacles, the beautiful Shell Beach, the feeding of the dolphins at Monkey Mia, Coral Bay with the chance of snorkeling or Glass Bottom Boat Cruise. My favorite was Karijini Nationalpark, where we were hiking a lot and had the chance to explore the gorges and had the chance to swim in natural pools. The Karijini NP is awesome.
The whole tour was a special adventure. To help preparing meals was fun. We were divided into groups and every group had to help preparing meals or to do the dishes. This kind of participation tour gave me the feeling to be at home like in a family. We had a great group and we had lots of fun. It was a special experience to sleep on the campground in permanent tents and to listen to the sounds of wilderness and to observe the animals especially at the waterhole of Yardie Creek.
The tour fulfilled all my expectations and I am happy that I booked an English guided tour. The trip was awesome and memorable. It is the perfect tour for guys who love the nature.
“Spectacular scenery knowledgable guide amazing adventure.”
I had such a great tour with this company. I was hesitant at first that my fitness could be an issue but I didn't want to miss out on anything. I didn't need to worry as I was able to choose to participate in as few or many activities as I liked. There are so many spots to choose from as well so I'm pleased our guide Heath picked them. His food was really good and there was always enough. His bush tucker that he showed us was less tasty!!!
The lake argyll sunset cruise and the early morning bungle bungles were beautiful and well worth the long days.
Bear in mind that you rise with the sun so if you are not a morning person you may need a nap or two!
I didn't want this trip to end but at least I will be keeping in touch with my fellow tourists.
“Absolutely worth it!!”
Where to start, to describe this incredible tour...All the things you can read in the description are 100% correct. If you decide to go on this trip, which you should, you will have the best experience in Australia. Prepare your self for a out of your comfort zone experience without showers, toilets, reception and extrem bumpy roads. But what you get is so much worth it. Camp fires every night, sleeping in swags under the stars, amazing hikes, swimming in incredible gorges, breathtaking landscapes and the best food you ever had on a fire.
Our tour guide, Duffman, took care of us all the time. His knowledge about the flora and fauna and the history of the Kimberleys is amazing. And he is probably the best cook you can find in the bush :D
We had a small group of 9 people and I can say, that strangers become family on this trip. Thanks to Kimberley Adventure Tours for making this experience happen. I would do it again anytime!!
“Amazing Trip!”
It was such a wonderful and great time. Trendt is a perfect guide, joker and cook! He makes the trip to an unforgettable experience and arranged an intense team spirit. Additionally the camping in the open was stunning and surprisingly very comfortable! The landscape is indescribable, you have to form your own opinion. It is in every case profitable.
Thanks for the lovely time.
“10 day tour Perth to Broome”
This tour exceeded all my expectations. We have seen so much in such a short time, from beautiful parks and hikes to swimming with turtles, sleeping under the stars and amazing scenery on the way. As we were a small group our guide Dan adapted everything to our needs. He has great cooking skills and it was always fun to sit in front in the bus to hear stories of a local. Thanks so much Adventure tours, to the group and Dan for making this trip unforgettable!
I had the time of my life on the ten day Perth to Broome and Broome to Darwin trips. Mon and Gav were our guides and they were wonderful, and I was lucky to have a lovely group on both. They worked incredibly hard to make everything possible - swimming with humpbacks and whale sharks, beautiful hikes, and extra walks and activities when time allowed. They made us great meals, used the time efficiently and found a solution to every difficulty outside their control.
“Amazing family adventure in the Kimberley”
Wow what a trip. This was an amazing family adventure enabled by the brilliant Beno. We were a bit worried about the kids who were 6 and 7 being able to do it. They had an amazing Time. Beno encouraged them the whole way with great humour and such a great sense of fun and adventure.
Each camp seemed to surpass the last. The great gorge walks and swimming spots just kept on coming.
From meeting indigenous elder Bill Harney, camping at real wilderness spots to jumping into crystal clear water at beautiful gorges I can't recommend this trip highly enough.
Thanks to Beno and the team at KAT they are the best at what they do.
“A brilliant outback experience”
Our family of four, two adults and two children aged 11 and 13 joined Stuart for the Perth to Broome trip recently.
We loved every minute of it, even being rained out on the first night! It was a true adventure. Stuart said he would challenge us and he did. We accomplished climbs we never thought possible, enjoyed delicious food and slept out under the stars. First time I have ever seen both the moon and sun rise and set in one day. On our list is to do the Broome to Darwin adventure next!
“Amazing Kimberley’s tour”
I can not recommend enough Kimberley adventure tours. We had an amazing holiday in one of the most beautiful parts of Australia. The tour was extremely well organised and the guide, Nicko, was very helpful and insightful. Genuinely one of the best breaks I’ve ever had!.
“Perth to Broome Overland tour”
Have just arrived in Broome following the 10 day Perth to Broome Overland tour. Our tour guides, Tom and Lucy went above and beyond to provide a fantastic experience that exceeded all expectations. They were knowledgeable, fun and provided amazing meals every day of the trip. I can't recommend this tour highly enough!
“Perth to Broome tour with Lucy and Tom”

“Fabulous Kimberley Experience”
Having completed the 9-day Perth to Broome tour I continued onto Darwin with four new friends from that tour. We spent an extra day in Broome relaxing before starting a 5 person tour in a 4WD Land Cruiser, with Niall as our tour guide. As a much smaller group this was a more intimate experience. Niall's passion and enthusiasm for the Kimberley, wildlife and night photography and his knowledge and expertise from working with reptiles ensured that no opportunity was missed for us to get up close and personal with the wildlife. Certainly a real taste of Australia and an experience not to be missed! Frilled neck and northern blue tongued lizards, freshwater and saltwater crocodiles, gekko's, greater black whip snakes, cane toads, bats, a variety of ospreys, boobys, egrets, brahimy kites, sea eagles and shoreline birds. As a smaller group Niall also shared with us some of his favourite places, the Norval Art Gallery in Derby, Rock Art in the Outback, a very special meeting with an Aboriginal Elder, and visited Zebra Rock Mine. We camped on wilderness and private outback Stations and each night Niall produced amazing, gourmet meals cooked on the campfire. I particularly enjoyed visiting Windjana Gorge during the day and also our night excursion to view the Southern Night sky which was a special highlight of the trip, as well as the Purnululu National Park, Bungle Bungles and Lake Argyle where we camped on a private island. Hikes to stunning gorges, swimming in rock pools, spectacular waterfalls, river crossings and the red dust of the Gibb River Road certainly made this a trip to remember. Thank you Niall for all your hard work and Chicks and Roosters for a fabulous shared experience.

Thanks so much Adventure tours, to the group and Dan for making this trip unforgettable!
“Perth to Broome overland - 10 days”
Adventure Tours / Intrepid/ Kimberley Wild’s Perth to Broome trip was an amazing traverse of Aus’s west coast. From sand, sea and amazing wildlife, to endless amounts of red dirt and breathtaking hikes into hidden gorges - it has everything. Our tour guide Zane was super chill, consistently upbeat and energized, very organised and knowledgeable. Zane’s obvious passion for Australia, it’s flora & fauna and Aboriginal history & culture really made the trip meaningful and memorable. Hats off to him!
“Perth to Broome”
Our tour guide Zane really made our trip from Perth to Broome. We all had an absolute blast. Great playlists and chat on the bus, awesome hikes and great tips for the tour and our onward travel along the way too.
Super easygoing and relaxed trip, not a teenage party bus - we had a really fun demographic so mostly mid 20's and older. The tour had great food and plenty of snacks along the way too.
“Perth to Broome overland 10 days”
What a great experience ! Go and have a look at Western Australia. It was a real adventure spending some nights in a tent and see the stars shining. Stunning landscape, wonderful hikes in Karijini National park to gorges and taking a swim.
With Wara, best guide ever! His knowledge is enormous, every day interesting stories about Australia. Taking care about everyone. Great food, very delicious!!!
Take your chance and have a look at the beauty of Western Australia!
“10 Day Perth to Broome Adventure”
Had a great time on this action-packed adventure from Perth to Broome. Awesome scenery a very knowledgeable and skilled guide and very healthy food. Whether it was hiking a gorge, watching emus cross the road or gazing up at the stars, this trip was a wonderful and unforgettable experience!
“10 Day Perth to Broome Adventure”
Had a great time on this adventure from Perth to Broome.
Damien was a wonderful guide and driver - entertaining and also supportive.
The hikes were much more difficult than I expected - bouldering was not something I was prepared for. But, the awesome scenery and swimming holes made it all worthwhile.
There were some long drives involved but Damien talked us through what to expect so we could cope.
Food was brilliant - fresh salads every day and I now want hummus with every meal :)
The mix of people on the trip (ages from 20 to 66) made for a great opportunity to bond without forming cliques.
It was amazing to experience a part of Australia that was unknown to this city-dweller.
“Perth to Broome 10 days”
Arrived in Broome after 10 amazing days, travelling from Perth and enjoying how breathtaking western Australia is. I personally consider this tour extraordinary, just what you need for an extraordinary adventure, and of course the right people to share it. And last but not least our cool tour guide Zane who made everything "awesome sauce" , from a wide variety of music and chat for entertainment, amazing food, good advice, well organized and showing great knowledge and skills on the territory, flora and fauna. Really showing that he had a great love for what he does.
I was not expecting such a great experience, so happy I've done it. Cool bananas.
“Perth to Broome 10 days”
I just finished the 10 days Perth to broome tour with our amazing tour guide Zane! !! He took good care of us, always considered our needs and wishes and it was loads of fun with him and the group. We saw a lot of beautiful things!
“Great overland tour.”
The west coast is huge and driving distances are very long which was why we choose to do it with a tour. Our tour guide was Storm who was brilliant and a lot of fun. The bus is a converted 20 person truck which is very spacious. We saw some amazing sites up the coast. Highlights were manta rays, whale sharks and Karijini gorges. Accomodation mix between hostels and permanent tents which were good for the cost. Definitely recommend.
“Had an amazing time on this tour!”
There was a great mixture of activities, socialising and down time! Damien and Brad were always helpful and filled with knowledge, making sure everyone was comfortable and safe! They organised the day so we spent time alone at the beautiful sights with just our group before the places became over crowded. A mix of male and female, young and old and I felt Damien catered for every person in the group! Highlight of the tour was Karijini and Couldn’t recommend the tour and tour guides enough!!!
“Perth to Broome Overland”
I had an amazing time with Damien and B-Rad.
Damien managed the group very well and we all felt very safe doing all the activities with him. Damien took us to beautiful places where we spent time almost without anyone around and he has a very good knowledge about the places, animals and vegetation :)
Food was very good and the places where we slept are nice as well.
Enjoy Karijini its an awesome experience!!!!!
“The tour exceeded my high expectations.”
I had been planning, saving, and looking forward to this trip for many many months and I am stoked to say that the tour exceeded my high expectations. The natural beauty of the West Coast and Karijini is truly extraordinary and a must-see, but it’s also very remote with long long days of driving. It’s important to have a guide who knows their stuff, is passionate about the area, and is committed to making sure the group has the best trip possible and we got exactly that with Damien and guide-in-training Brad. Despite our tour taking place smack bang in the middle of school holidays, we skilfully avoided the crowds thanks to our guides’ know-how and care. We were often the first to popular sights such as Nature’s Window in Kalbarri NP and Hancock Gorge in Karijini, so that we had the place to ourselves. Damien and Brad didn’t have to do this - they could have easily gotten an extra couple of hours of sleep and we would have been none the wiser - but they really put our experience often over their own comfort, and it was so so appreciated. While it is clear from his knowledge of the area that Damien has done this trip countless times, he was still excited to share its stories and secrets with us, ensuring that we got the most out of every day. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting an authentic, active, hands-on WA travel experience. I’m so glad I booked with Intrepid and would do so again in a heartbeat.
“10 Days Perth to Broome (Basix)”
This was my first organized camping trip. The itinerary looked quite busy and also the distances along the west coast are quite long. At the beginning our two guides, Damien and Brad gave us an short overview about the next days and the way we travel. First stop was the supermarket to buy all the necessary food and drinks for the next days. The group was divided in 3 parts and every group had an mission. So one group was responsible for lunch, next for dinner and then again lunch, so everyone had some time to relax and everyone has to manage a part within the group which kept the whole group organized an together. Due to the vacation season in austrailia, some places were quite busy / crowded, but our two guides managed it that we visited even more remote and very beautiful places along the west coast in Kalbarri and Karijini. this meant that we had to get up very early and reached our campsites sometimes late in the evening. But the sunrises and sunsets who we saw due to that circumstances were absolutley stunning. Also all other optional activities were really good organized and Damien & Brad took care of us all the time.
This is the right trip, if your like camping and group activities along the west coast.

I did this tour in April 2018. I had been planning, saving, and looking forward to this trip for many many months and I am stoked to say that the tour exceeded my high expectations.

“Awesome tour!”
Tourguide Brenton was very knowledgable and funny. And he made sure everyone had a good time. West coast is the best coast for sure!
“Thanks for the amazing time!”
In January, I was a part of the 10 days tour from Perth to Broome. You can’t say that we had a lot of luck because of the cyclone, but our tourguide Wara (Dan) stayed still really calm and tried to rescue the last 5 days with some other activities as good as he could. At the end we all ended up like a family with shared memories. Also the food was really good and we had enough of it. We also knew that we could go to our tourguide at any time to ask him something about Australia - the culture, history or some special spots.
All in all, I would recommend for everybody the tour, because of the huge distances and the endless streets, it’s the only way to travel along the west coast.
“Amazing time!”
I had an amazing time with 17 people and our guide Damien.
Every places are special, All meals are healthy, our group member are awesome and our guide Damien was really really nice.
I worried about joint this tour by my self also price is not cheap. but i glad to jointed this tour.
I recommend you if you not sure yet to joint this tour, you'd better to go.
You can get amazing experience and new friends as well.
“One trip that I will always remember”
Although we didn't make it to Broome due to weather issues and had to make our way back to Perth, this trip was still amazing and one I will always remember!
Our tour guide Wara was very kind and considerate of our experience. He made sure that we saw the most we could given the disruption of initial plans. He is full of knowledge and had great food ideas every night! (Greek food night was especially yummy!)
We visited beautiful places, saw the most wondrous night skies, and danced/sang the night away at local pubs! Which leads to my most important point...
The group was SO awesome! Age ranged from 18 to 60+ and absolutely everyone vibed well! I would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking to see the west coast and not have to deal with the hassle of planning everything yourself. The people you will meet and time spent together will be invaluable.
Thanks for he great times P2P!! See y'all in Dublin!
“Best Group Ever Official!”
This trip was a last minute change as my friend who was living in OZ decided to come back to UK a few weeks before i left so i did a bit of research and joined this tour as never wanted to be on my own !! SO so glad i did :-)
So it all started with the pick up from the YHA Broome 7am early start but guess this was the latest we were gonna be get up over the following 9 nights lol
Our Guide Damien Dundee Thornton was an encyclopaedia of knowledge when it came to western Australia, he was a laugh too could do with an iron !! Hahahah
There were a group of 12 of us from 9 nations ages range from 21 up to 54 a great mix of people whom i can now call friends :-)
accommodation on this trip is a mixture of hostels and camps but are all nice clean places, the days start normally early with a few hours driving but this passes very quickly as you all chat along the route while Dundee keeps on working lol
You do and see so much every day its just amazing shell beaches, pink salt lakes, Abseiling in Kalbarri National Park,Monkey Mia Dolphins,Snorkel with Manta Rays Hike deep into the gorges, where you’ll come across cascading waterfalls and fresh waterholes ideal for swimming in, the list is endless this is by far the best organised trip i've done we came together as a group and had quite a few parties in the nights and some real bad hangovers in the mornings!!
food wise was fine, saying that I cooked a few times (best camp cook ever) Curry, BBQ, Mexican, but i loved doing it,
Some of the trails are hard and demanding at times there were times i thought i couldn’t climb bits but with the encouragement of Damien we all did it, so glad as the views are breathtaking some of the gorges are just amazing, your see Wildlife in its natural surrounding Dingos Kangaroos birds lizards etc everywhere
If your thinking about this trip just do it you won’t be sorry its a truly amazing adventure worth every penny, euro,dollar rupie or whatever your using and your get to meet other people and build new friendships have laughs maybe some tears a few hangovers but a lifetime of memories !!
Last but least flys omg Oz is full of them enjoy !!!
Highlights
Nambung National Park (Pinnacles) Entrance Sand boarding Jurien Bay,Abseiling in Kalbarri National Park,Monkey Mia Dolphins,Ningaloo Reef Marine Park,Karijini National Park,Dales Gorge,Pilbara
“This tour was the best!”
We had a nice group of 17 people. Our guide/driver Dan did everything to make our trip amazing. He knows a lot and made us delicious food. I would defenitely recomend this tour! The west coast is so beautiful and without this tour I would have miss some great parts
“Such a memorable trip!”
Had the best time on the Perth to Broome Overland tour even though a cyclone stopped us from completing the tour and getting to Broome :( our tour guide Wara did everything he could to ensure we had the best trip possible and was full of knowledge of the West coast and the aboriginal history/culture.
Highlights definitely included Sandboarding, coral bay and the walks through the gorges and stunning lakes/rivers.
Although because of the cyclone, Wara ended up having to drive a huge 5600 km (&the rest) round trip back to Perth over the 10 days,he never let any frustration he may have had show.
Food was tasty (think that's the best mash potato I've tasted!) Wara always asked throughout the day if anyone was feeling unwell, had been drinking enough water and had enough sunscreen on. Also kept us informed on the next toilet breaks along the way!
Wara even made sure we could go back to part of the tour we had to originally miss out in Kalbarri national park on the way back to Perth. He really thought about everything. We also had such a great group of people with a mixed age range and hopefully we'll stay in touch!
I'd definitely recommend this tour and Wara was a great tour guide!
Thank you

“10 day Perth to Broome tour with the wonderful Wara!”
Highly recommended this tour! I’ve been on plenty of group tours and this one is one of my favourites. Everyday is a new adventure sharing and learning with a group of people from all around the world. Absolutely beautiful. We really scored well on getting our great tour guide Wara. He answered all of our questions, he always was checking up on us to make sure we were hydrated and healthy. Great sense of humour, very interesting and full of knowledge. Always going out of his way to keep the group satisfied. We visited so many beautiful places and experienced so many amazing things. Sadly we were turned around on the 8th day due to floods in Broome, resulting in Wara having to drive us for two days all the way back to Perth. As upsetting as it was it didn’t ruin the trip. We made the most of it and just pushed through, things happen. I’ll never forget the memories I’ve made on this trip!
Only negativity was the night we stayed at Bay Lodge in Denham, the owner was terribly rude. Barged in the door to our room without warning to tell us to have the doors closed while having the AirCon on, then continued to cut the power to them as well. Maybe pick another town to stay at?
“Perth to Broom 10 Days”
Me and a travel buddy booked the 10 days Perth-Broom, leading up to it I was really worried as this was my first tour I would have done... now it’s my first tour I have done and I am now looking back wondering what I was so worried about. The tour was amazing our amazing tour guide, Flick, was so full of knowledge and made the learning fun and interesting instead of making it sound like a boring history class. We saw loads of the cost and the diversity of environments was amazing! Unfortunately we weren’t able to go to the Kimberley’s due to rain, instead Flick took us to see some Aboriginal art! I would definitely recommend going on the Mantra tour in Coral Bay I think that and camping at Yardi Creek was my favourite bits!
I would definitely recommend this tour to a friend...or anyone and I would definitely book them again no doubt about it.
“Amazing!”
This tour was just amazing: Travelling the West Coast with 18 complete strangers (who become friends later) and the best tour guide ever (huge thank you at this point, Wara!) was a great adventure. The landscape is stunning and Wara could tell you lots of very interesting things about the country and its history, aboriginal culture and nature. Food was tasty, of high quality and divers. I always felt safe and cared for, and despite this inpolite host of the Bay Lodge in Dunham, everything was just perfect. There is no single point Wara could have done better !
“Best way to explore Western Australia”
Best camping and group experience ever. It is a very well organized tour with a great Leader Wara always looking after the group and giving lots of info about the places we were traveling through. Lot of food cooked by the leader with the group helps and opportunities to buy snacks during long ride days. Really recommend trip for environment and no frills trip lovers
“Amazing tour”
Although having to re-plan due to a few natural disasters we had an amazing time. The tour guide Wara was amazing with making sure everyone was ok and well informed with new plans and constantly communicating to everyone with new updates. Food was also brilliant and well cooked. Loved the tour. Extra credit to Wara!!
“I had an amazing time”
This trip was absolutely amazing although really nothing went as expected. During the time of the trip a cyclone hit Karinjini and a bush fire prevented us from going further north for a few days. So this trip could have ended as a complete failure, but it did not thanks to our amazing guide Wara! He spent a lot of time researching alternatives and managed to let this trip become a big success despite all the extreme weather events. He was also really mindful and took care that no one got sick although the temperatures were extremely hot.
Apart from that, we got amazing food. I have done a lot of trips in Australia but the food has never been anywhere close to that. It was way healthier than the food on any other trip with heaps of veggies and fruit.
Those things we managed to do were totally worth the trip. The Ningaloo Reef is absolutely fabulous, we encountered quite a few turtles and the Manta snorkeling was a real once in a lifetime experience. Apart from that, I enjoyed our camp near Exmouth a lot as we could observe Kangaroos and emus drinking water from our kitchen during breakfast and dinner.
All in all, I had an amazing time and I would like thank Wara for the great effort he put into this trip!
“Amazing guide”
Myself and my fiancé did the 10 day Perth to Broome tour, and despite missing out on Karijini National Park due to Mother Nature we still had a fantastic time. The guide Wara/Dan was what made this tour great. He never stopped working so hard to make sure everyone was happy, well fed (OMG the food was so good!), and informed. Communication was superb and everything ran so smoothly thanks to Wara. Great trip and met some wonderful people!
“Would definitely recommend this trip! Full of adventure!”
We had an amazing 10 day tour from Perth to Broome with our amazing, friendly, professional and factual tour guide Wara! Despite cyclones, bush fires, floods and road train crashes impacting our ability to go to Karijini National Park we had an amazing time abseiling, hiking, snorkeling in the Ningaloo reef, seeing turtles, dolphins and manta rays unbelievably close! There were so many beautiful clear water beaches to see.
Wara was full of fun facts, very organised and ensured everyone stayed hydrated and felt well. The food was amazing! We prepared chicken stir fries, lamb and salad, steak, wraps, sandwiches, burritos, bolegnaise, pizza & fish and prawns! Lots of health fresh foods with every meal!

“One of the best tours i ever did.”
Unfortunately a cyclone and bushfires kept us from following the itinerary but our tourguide Wara did a great job with finding alternatives for us. Next to the Ningaloo reef where we could snorkel with turtles stingrays and even manta rays he was the highlight of the trip. Everything was well organized and he made sure that everyone was healthy and happy. There was always plenty of food and snacks at anytime and everything was delicious. It was an amazing experience and i highly recommend this tour. Thanks Wara!
“Unforgettable birthday”
I've always wanted to travel to west coast. It was a first trip on my own so I was a little bit scared. But I met great bunch of people, who were strangers to me at first but became good friends later. Our tour guide Dan/Wara was great. I had 30th birthday and he made my birthday unforgettable - so thank you again for the best birthday I have ever had. I will also never forget that I was sleeping under the stars in Karijini National Park - it was awesome. Wara knew a lot about the area, wildlife, and any questions we asked him he knew the answer. We had a great food the whole time - I was impressed with the effort they put in for the vegetarians and vegans on tour.
I can highly recommend to do this trip - be prepared there is a lot of driving on this tour but, totally worth it!
“West is the best!”
I booked pretty last minute as had originally wanted to hire a car and drive up the coast myself but doing the 10 days up to Broome with Adventure Tours (/Kimberley Wild) was definitely the best decision! Everyday was something new. We saw so much in such a short space of time, even with the huge distances in WA. The scenery is absolutely stunning, and totally diverse. From beaches to bush land, gorges to mining towns. This tour has it all.
Top things - swimming with mantarays, z bend gorge/natures window, turquoise bay and all the other guys on the tour! BUT my absolute highlight was the 3 days we spent in Karanjini National Park: walking through stunning gorges, swimming in natural pools and sleeping in swags under the stars. Life doesn't get much better.
Our tour guide Simo was extremely knowledgable and great fun. This is hands down the best way to discover WA and meet amazing people!
“A very well organised adventure.”
20 keen people set off as strangers and arrived as good friends. Food was so well done. We had a good variety and sustaining meals.
Some great challenges in those gorges but well worth it.
Fabulous scenery, accommodation and facilities were comfortable.
Our guide Toby was the jewel in the crown. Thanks. Would certainly consider doing more Intrepid Journeys. Thanks everyone.
“What an amazing way to end my trip in Australia.”
No better way to see the out-back.. Travelled with an amazing group of people who made the trip one to remember. Our tour guide 'Simo' was great making sure we got to see all, his knowledge of all the places we visted and dishing up a fabulous meal each night for the crew. I would highly recommend this trip for anyone wanting to see spectacular scenery.
“Had an amazing time”
Had an amazing time on the Perth to Broome trip. Met an amazing group of people and our bus driver/tour guide extraordinaire 'Simo' was fantastic! There was heaps of food which was creative and enjoyable and his knowledge of all the amazing places we visited took our tour to an extra level. Would definitely recommend 'Simo' and this trip to anyone.
“This one was amazing”
I am a 61 female and have done 4 other intrepid trips in Australia. This one was amazing. Toby our driver, tour guide, chef extraordinaire and lovely genuine Aussie very knowledgeable bloke made the trip the best ever. Along with the other travellers in age from 19 to 61 from all over the world. The trip has variety from the gorgeous coast to the beautiful Kalbarri and Karijini National Parks. The hikes were challenging for me but well worth it and Toby was just a gem making sure everyone was safe and enjoying them. I highly recommend this trip, it was just awesome.
“It's an amazing trip.”
had a good time with everyone. Pinnacles, Shark Bays, Coral Bays, abseiling, swimming with whale shark, one of my favorite activities is in Karijini national park. I will never forget I was Sleeping with countless stars. Thanks for our tour guide, Luke. He was one of the best guide I've ever meet. He introduced lots of local knowledge and shared so many funny stories. Thanks all his help, I finished so much challenges.
Such a wonderful trip you don't want to miss it!
“The west coast is the best coast.”
Awesome trip that goes to Kalbarri national park, Shark bay, Monkey Mia, Karijini national park, Exmouth and Broome. Make sure you have extra days in Perth and Broome if you can. It was really great to travel in a group. Everyone pitched in and made the tour a lot of fun. Luke the guide was one of the best guides I've ever had. So much local knowledge and a genuine love for the area.
Highlights were the whale sharks and Karijini national park.
I really enjoyed eating under the stars each night. The food was awesome. Was impressed with the effort put in for the vegetarians on tour.
Apparently the west coast is the best coast.
Such a good trip ! I wish I was still on tour.
“Best desicion I've ever made!”
First when I thought of doing the West Coast I didn't want to do a tour as I like to explore things on my own but decided to do it in the end. Honestly it blew me away! The group was awesome and Luke was amazing! He was always good for a laugh, positive and really really enthusiastic! He knows all about the country, it's history and culture. Besides the beautiful sceneries we've seen, I learned so much about the West Coast as well. Anyone one who's thinking about doing it: Do it, you won't regret it I promise!
Thanks again Luke for the amazing trip!
“We had an amazing time!”
This was our first intrepid tour and we had an amazing time! Couldn't have asked for better tour guide (Luke!). He was very knowledgeable and passionate about his job. Very cool, calm and collected the whole tour. Five stars!
You definitely get your money's worth with the extra mantaray and whaleshark tour. Karijini national park is another breathtaking highlight, from the scenic gorge hikes, red dirt and beautiful sunsets. People of any physical ability are able to enjoy the tour.
“EPIC ADVENTURE”
This was without a doubt the best tour I've ever been on! Not only were the national parks and wildlife just stunning but our tour guide Toby really put the icing on the cake! Right from the start it was one exciting thing after another, sand boarding, abseiling in Kalbarri NP, feeding the wild dolphins at Monkey Mia, swimming with Manta ray in Coral Bay, the whole thing was just so exciting! My favourite part was definitely exploring Karijini NP, it was like being in an 'Indiana Jones' movie - so much fun!
Toby was great at getting our group working together right from the first day. Even though we had very diverse age ranges, he made sure everyone was involved. The food was delicious too and one day, we even had pancakes for breakfast in the outback!
I would definitely recommend this 10 day camping tour to anyone who has a sense of adventure, the west coast is just so beautiful and is still so unspoilt, I feel really lucky to have experienced it. Top Tips - get a fly net! and ask for Toby - he really made the tour!
“Absolute amazing”
This 10 day tour is amazing! I had a great time with a great group and an impressive tour guide. Damian knows a lot about the nature, animals, plants and history. He made the trip very special and fun. There is a lot of driving in this tour - don't underestimate it. Though all the sights are so worth it! Australia is a huge country and you are seeing a lot on this trip. Would definitely recommend to travel the west coast and to do it with adventure tours Australia!
“Great 10 days”
The pinnacles, Kalbarri NP, Ningaloo Reef, Cape Range NP, Karijini.
Be warned, there is a lot of driving but there's always good music on and plenty of the same thing to see out the windows, an occasional game of bus bingo, and commentary from Damien. Long drives are broken up with animal sightings, view points and toilet stops, and for us a lot of wild flower stops! First few nights are spent in hostel dorms where you all share together, then it's tents for 5 nights - not quite glamping, but you do sleep on foldable beds and the tents sit on wooden platforms. You will be up early everyday, breakfasts and lunches are a bit repetitive (we were camping after all), and everyone cooks.
Highlights: the Ningaloo reef, camp fires, wildlife & sunsets in Cape Range NP, exploring the Karijini gorges, cocktails in the Karijini Eco Retreat (a bit pricey but well deserved!), rising with the sun, sunset swim in Broome, banoffee pie, the ribbon...
Downsides: numb bums from long driving spells. it's only 10 days, so there is a tight itinerary in order to get from place to place before the sun sets so there is no time to explore places such as Kalbarri or Shark Bay. This trip was booked through different touring agencies, including Kimberely Wild and Adventure Tours Australia.
“This tour is brilliant”
I've just completed the 10 day Perth to Broome trip and couldn't recommend it enough!
This tour is brilliant for anyone who wants a taste of the wild side of Australia and have a bit of an adventure!
Karijini is one of the most breathtaking places I have ever visited, swimming and climbing in the gorges was great fun but not for anyone who is unfit or who doesn't want to do difficult treks, as some of the places involve a bit of a climb and splash through water! Having an experienced guide on the tour really made you feel more confident about the treks, especially for someone with little experience like myself. Coral bay and the reef was also a stunning highlight, but as the trip is only 10 days it was only a quick visit when I could have stayed there for days!
I was very lucky to be travelling with a group of wonderful people who kept you going on the early mornings and through the washing up, as this trip is very challenging at points and everyone needs to muck in and help. Food is prepped and cooked as a group, which really helps create a great sense of team work. Lunch was mostly basic sandwiches and wraps, which did get a bit boring unless you mixed it up a bit with some sauces. Somehow Storm managed to turn simple dinners into amazing meals that after a hard days trek made us all happy campers (curry night was by far a highlight)!
Storm, our guide, was full of interesting information and has a real passion for the area, stopping to show us animals or explaining the geology of the area. He was also a lot of fun, and kept us very entertained and in high spirits throughout.
The last few days involve a lot of sitting on the bus, but as the distance traveled is so big I did expect a lot of bus hours, but maybe making the trip a few days longer would help this.
Camping was fantastic, with the camp beds and swag I slept better than in the hostel accommodation, although some did get chilly so don't forget extra warm jammies. Overall, it's a fantastic trip for people who are fit, can enjoy basic amenities and want an adventure!
“This is one of the most incredible trips I've ever done.”
The tour guide, Luke, was so knowledgeable and led the tour from the front. The trip was one I would not attempt in 10 days due to the length of daily drives and the condition of the roads. We visited gorges in Karijini National Park, reefs out of Exmouth, snorkeled at Coral Bay, wandered through the Pinnacles and fed dolphins at Monkey Mia. We formed a tight group within the tour and the food preparation and cleaning duties was done with a beer and a smile. You should be reasonably fit and prepared to push yourself within a team and you will have an exhilarating ride through the most amazing country the world has got to offer.
