About The Kimberley Tours

Travelwild Australia offer 3 fantastic 4WD Kimberley Tours between Broome and Darwin.

The Kimberley Region of North West Australia is amazing, at 421,000 square kilometers in size it's much larger than the UK (242 900 sq km ) and about the same size as Japan. it's got man eating crocodiles, ancient Aboriginal rock painting and carvings and is recognised as one of the last true wilderness areas of Australia

There is no point sitting on a bus tour if you want to see the best bits so 6 and 9 day Kimberley Tours use 4WD vehicles and only take small groups of between 9 and 16 passengers. Activities include hiking, swimming, camping and exploring the vast Kimberley Region.

If you are prepared to rough it a bit, can handle a day or 2 without a shower and think sleeping out under the stars next to the campfire is a grand idea, then you may have stumbled on a tour designed just for you

The 6 day 4WD Kimberley Tour visits Windjana Gorge, Tunnel Creek, Turkey Creek, Bungle Bungles, Piccaninny Gorge, Echidna Chasm, Kununurra, Gibb River Road, El Questro Station, Emma Gorge, El Questro Gorge and Keep River National Park. Group size is kept to a maximum of 9 or 14 passengers depending on the 4WD vehicle used and is a great value trip at only $825 AUD.

The 9 day 4WD Kimberley Tour travels the full length off the Gibb River Road, diverts to the Mitchell Plateau visits everything on the 5 day tour plus Mitchell Falls, El Questro Station, Bungle Bungles, Manning Gorge, Bell Gorge, Lennard River Gorge, Windjana Gorge, Cable Beach (Broome) and Tunnel Creek, and carryies a maximum of only 9 passengers in a 4WD, this 4WD Kimberley Tour is one of the most adventurous on the market.

Kimberley Tours 4WD campsite

Kimberley Bush Camp

Camping

Camping on the Kimberley Tours is very basic and consists of swags around the campfire, campsites are a mixture of minimal facility campgrounds in National Parks, these mostly consist of a drop toilet only, and bush campsites which have no facilities. Most sites are in remote wilderness areas. Swags are a bed roll which consist of a mattress enclosed within a canvas bag, you put you sleeping bag inside the swag and put the swag on the ground to sleep, while in the swag your body is covered and your head exposed, theses are a great camping product, very comfortable and warm, and there’s' nothing like falling asleep gazing at the stars! Tents are provided for as a backup however swaging is our preferred method.

About Travelwild Australia

Travelwild Australia started operating tours in 1998 under the name Campwild Adventures, our fisrt tours were backpacker 4WD tours to Kangaroo Island, the tours were soon expanded and within the first year we were traveling to Alice Springs and Darwin with a 20 day expedition through central Australia. In 2005 Campwild Adventures was sold and Travelwild now groups together similar backpacker tours around Australia under the Travelwild banner, the responsibility of the daily running of the tours is left to a handful local operators who specialise in their region, local knowledge is very important when running tours if you want to get to the best spots at the best time of year, understand the weather and local fauna and flora, and this is what Travelwild offers.

All tours are small group 4WD tours and offer heaps of adventure, they all require you to rough it a bit in order to see and experience the best of the destinations offered.
