I had a fabulous day on this tour. I was initially concerned by all the images on the website of young people but in the day we had a predominantly ‘less young’ group. The tour was led by Sam who did an awesome job of making everyone feel comfortable and safe, and encouraged people to ‘have a go’. The group bonded really well over the day and it was no problem doing it as a solo traveller. The waterfalls were fabulous, we saw two platypuses in the stream, and generally had a great day.

We had a great day out with Barefoot Tours. The day started early with pickup from a location walking distance from our hotel. While there was a bit of a drive to our first location, we enjoyed the bus ride as there was great music, banter and company on the bus. The waterfalls were amazing and even when it was raining, we felt like we were having the time of our lives. We loved the ability to get to so many locations in one day, yet never felt rushed at any of the destinations. We were looked after throughout the day and fed at several intervals. Looking forward to seeing our photos of the day on FB soon! Thanks guys!

It was a great experience.Our tour guy was Sam who was funny, dynamic , energetic and nothing was too hard . We saw amazing waterfalls, rainforests and great walks. We even got to see a couple of platypus. At no time did we feel rushed and Sam tried to accommodate everyone’s needs. He kept us entertained with jokes and stories . It is great value for money considering the many spots we visited . The whole trip ran smoothly and we would highly recommend it.

Tour guide very enthusiastic. Really it is just a lot of broken concrete. falling down buildings. This venue is not suitable for wheelie walkers or wheelchairs as their are multiple stairs, gravel and uneven surfaces. Even people with walking issues would have problems getting around. Entry to this venue was part of our day trip with Northern Experience Eco Tours however I would not pay $47 entrance fee if I went on my own.. This is way overpriced for what you get.

Just got back from a week in PNG. I got to know No Limit Advenatures last year on a trip through Australia and Konrad was fantasic and when chatting about other vacation spots he kept referencing PNG. I'd never even considered it but so glad he brought it up for diving. I specifically got certified for PNG and could not have been happier I did. The island is amazing, the food is spectacular, the dive guides are extraordinary, just overall an epic trip. The best part is that you don't run into anyone else on the island, no competition in the water for dive locations or surf spots, you're so isolated and it's only you & your group. I can't recommend No Limit Adventures enough!

Kimberley Offroad Adventure was a fantastic way to travel and see the rugged beauty of the outback. Adam was a very experienced tour guide that organised activities that created variety and enthusiasm. We booked in April. Unfortunately both Bungle bungles and Gibb River Road were closed due to residual flooding. The itinerary was also modified due to Covid borders. We were lucky to have some time in Katherine Gorge and extra time in El Questro instead. When the itinerary changed, Adam always had a suitable alternative. We had a fantastic trip. Notes for fellow travellers: Bathers- you spend a lot of time in bathers, including hiking. I would recommend packing several pairs and make sure they are comfortable for activity. Shoes- I decided to take an old pair of runners instead of my hiking boots. I felt like this was the right choice for me as there was a fair amount of hiking along dry river beds and the runners gave me good grip and allowed me to bounce between boulders, and dried really quickly. Laundry- there are washing machines in El Questro that is $5 a wash and takes $1 coins. Just pack some laundry powder scoops in a zip lock bag. Food- I am a fussy eater with a small amount of food allergy but found the meals delicious with lots of variety. Hayfever- the dry grass sent lots of people's hayfever and asthma into overdrive. Bring medication with you. Nothing like sitting on a bus with people sneezing in a pandemic. Camp chores- generally everyone pitches in to assist with camp chores. After a few days everyone finds their niche and the chores take no time. Maps- Google Maps shows a whole lot of nothing in the outback. I would recommend downloading a detailed map before you go. It's always nice to know exactly where you are. Whatsap- consider signing your group up to whatsap to share photos, maps, information as you go. Electronics- there are lots of usb ports on the bus. Normal plugs take a lot more time to charge. Label your cords. Earplugs- whilst it is lovely sleeping with the sounds of the bush around you, unfortunately we had at least one horrendous snorer in our group. Even physical distancing did not mitigate the issue. If things are really noisy, use Earplugs.
