Untamed Kimberley Reviews

A great tour of a rather remote part of Australia...a great tour to do it if, like us, you are not 4WD travellers. Well structured and organised by AAT Kings. Emma Gorge glamping was a particular highlight for us...Optional extras also a must...fly in fly out to the Bungle Bungles and all day Horizontal fall tour incorporating Aquaplane, fast boat Cyclone ...read more Creek cruise ,fly over Dampier Peninsula Islands and Aqua Hatchery and Cygnet Creek too. You may never get the chance again! Full on days but fabulous and of a high standard all round.

Always a pleasure to book with Global Journeys. I really liked this trip as I went to places difficult to go normally, especially - Bungle Bungles and Emma Gorge. Both the accommodation and the Emma George were great highlights for me. Enjoyed all the gorge cruises too.

AAT kings tour of the Kimberley's was amazing from beginning to end. Our tour leader Nellie made our trip so enjoyable and she is a credit to the company. Anyone who has wanted to see the Top End needs to go sooner rather than later as you really need stamina as there is so much to do and see. My highlights were the magical gorges each one had a ...read more different aspect and I loved every minute of the trip.

I rated this trip as a 10/10 adventure based on the scenery, the experiences in terms of the Bungles, Emma Gorge and Zebedee Gorge, the 4 boat trips and the overall wilderness, which were all enhanced by AAT's Nellie and Mark.

An excellently organised journey with a fantastic tour guide. Delma is the most caring, generous person and was my saviour in an emergency! Many thanks again for your help.

Thanks for your assistance booking our trip. We really enjoyed ourselves seeing places we had been curious about for a long time. We would have no hesitation in booking with Global Journeys again or recommending this trip to others. The itinerary was packed with interest and we were more than happy with the meals and accommodation. The weather in ...read more the north at this time of the year suited us well. Our tour director and coach driver were particularly efficient, friendly and helpful. Our fellow travellers were a good bunch and everyone got along well.

I really can't suggest any improvements over what we received. We thought that the trip was very good value for money. We took part in only one optional extra which was the Willy Creek pearl farm in Broome on our free day which was all the extras that we wanted.

This was our first coach tour and the experience was very good. AAT/Kings was a great company to travel with and we would definitely tour with them again and recommend them. The Tour Director was very knowledgeable and experienced, this made the holiday very enjoyable. The bus driver was very experienced and we felt comfortable with him operating ...read more the coach. The accommodation was very good to excellent. The tours were well organised and interesting. The included meals and wine were of good quality. We thoroughly enjoyed the holiday. We think it was very good value for money.

Global Journeys were great to deal with and kept us informed and up to date of progress from our initial inquiry to concluding the holiday. We would definitely consider them for future trips.

Our entire trip from day 1 was really well done. AAT Kings were professional, personal, experienced, helpful, patient with those less able to look after themselves & generally gave us information on what was happening every day, (no one needed to wonder about what was going to happen.) Our tour guide was always giving us information & details on the ...read more places we were either passing by, going to visit or staying at. We learnt so much each day about the roads, scenery, indigenous populations & history - both indigenous & more recent, we spent lots of time learning about the people who came to these areas & how they got there.

All of it was enlightening & interesting. Our driver was exceptional, everyone felt confident about his driving ability, he was also friendly, helpful, informative and nothing was too much trouble for him. The bus was always kept clean. Our accommodation was always good - sometimes better than we expected, our food each day was always fresh and many of the meals were top quality, there was always plenty of food. We have seen incredible scenery & places in this amazing country of ours. We had a sensational holiday !

Highly Recommended! The trip highlights were the Katherine Gorge, Emma Gorge, Ord River cruise at sunset and the Lake Argyle stop. We would definitely travel with AAT Kings again and book through Global Journeys again online as it was trouble free and very easy to book. The Accommodation and food was excellent, especially the El Questo stay over in ...read more the Cockburn Ranges. We recommend August as a perfect time to travel in this part of the world as it is late in the Dry Season and not too hot.

Our 11 day untamed Kimberley holiday with AAT Kings was excellent, great accommodation with variations, Nellie was excellent in helping everyone, especially those of us who needed special diets, Rolfe was a very good driver, they both went out of their way to accommodate everyone and especially with those extra things like taking us to see the Boab ...read more trees at sunset for some great photos, it was lovely to be able to have two drinks with our dinner every night, overall we were very pleased with our holiday.

The entire holiday ran like clockwork from original planning, contacting Michelle to make the booking knowing how smoothly the arrangements for my New Zealand trip with AAT Kings had been because of her diligence, meeting up with Liz and Mark who were both efficient and proficient at their jobs while being such fun to travel with made for a very enjoyable ...read more adventure that I'll never forget.

We had a near perfect-time on a holiday we've wanted to do for years. Tour guide Dave added to the enjoyment, along with seeing the stunning landscapes of the region. A personal highlight (Colleen) was the Ord River cruise, along with Kununurra and the irrigation areas there. Late May was a great time to go, with a whole bus-load of friendly companions. ...read more Easy on the legs, with a few optional challenges. Our recommendation - don't delay, you won't regret a moment.

Just returned from AAT Kings Untamed Kimberley tour. Having travelled with AAT Kings previously we expected it to be very good and we were not disappointed. While the accommodation and meals varied, naturally, depending on where we were in the Kimberley, it ranged from good to fantastic. How the team in Emma Gorge are able to provide meals of such excellence ...read more in the middle of nowhere I have no idea.... wow. Our wonderful, patient, knowledgeable and hard working tour guide Dave and driver Darren were just marvellous. We personally had no problems at all and those on our bus who did were able to be assisted efficiently, quietly and quickly by Dave and or Darren. The inclusions were wonderful as were optional extras.

Book early with Global Journeys if you want to do the full day flight/4WD tour into the Bungle Bungles. I shall never forget much of our trip but a real highlight was a visit to the Yiyilli aboriginal community. The bus was very comfortable, drives and accommodation all organised beautifully and with great thought for comfort. Our country is amazing and I highly recommend seeing it with AAT Kings.

The Kimberley Region provides some wonderful sightseeing experiences and its remoteness contributes to the enjoyment. Four great river cruises, the colour of the ranges and escarpments, the chance to see remote towns such as Wyndham, having sparkling wine and nibbles watching the sunset at Emma Gorge and watching the sunset from the bar at Cable Beach ...read more were among the memories we took home from this tour. Tour guide Nellie and our driver Russell, were great. This trip should be on your bucket list. Thanks to Georgie at Global Journeys for handling all the tour arrangements.

We had a great time in the Kimberley. The Tour Director and Coach Driver went out of their way to ensure that we had the best possible experience. We were quite impressed with the AAT Kings tour.

Fantastic part of the world - tour made the holiday so easy as we had virtually no decisions to make each day except what to eat and drink! Having not done much group travel before, we were pleasantly surprised.

We would recommend this trip to anyone. Accommodation was great, & the itinerary was interesting & varied; made even better with Nellie's inside knowledge. We were very lucky in that everyone on our coach trip mixed well, & as a result it made it lots of fun. In fact it has resorted our faith in coach travel; as believe me we have had some duds, & ...read more that had really put us off. We were also lucky to have Mark as our driver & knew we were in very safe hands.

My tour, 'Best of the Kimberley' was simply amazing. I enjoyed the pace - necessarily long days were followed by easier ones. I was disappointed to find the optional tours so expensive, as one is almost forced into them - 'a once in a lifetime experience, so have to pay the money' - but of course, no regrets on having done them. I liked the number ...read more of meals included, providing one with the option to eat less in between, if desired! Our Tour Director, Caroline, was incredible. She always informed us of what to expect, when food, toilet stop, etc would next be available, possible problems to be aware of. She related to all types of people with friendliness and respect but still used the required pressure to keep us all on time and not missing anything. The information she passed on was relevant and educational. Highly recommended tour! :)

The trip was excellent and we'd have no hesitation recommending AATKings. Everything was well organised and the meals and accommodation were without fault...a real credit to those involved, given the isolation of the Kimberly.
