Owners

Glenn and Jaye became the proud owners of Kimberley Safari Tours in late 2023, taking on a family owned and run business with experienced tour guides on every departure.

Glenn’s passion for off-road adventures and camping started early and has continued his whole life. Glenn and Jaye have spent a lot of time camping and caravanning together, and look forward to putting that passion to good use, sharing these experiences with our guests.

Glenn has worked for many years in remote locations including the Pilbara, Kimberley and Northern Territory, along with a number of overseas destinations, in logistics and project management roles across the mining and offshore sectors. With their young family, Glenn and Jaye decided to take a step away from city living and share their passion for travelling and camping with others.

Guides & leaders

Your crew on the road

Between them: overland expeditions in Africa and South America, a diesel mechanic, a geologist, and a lot of nights under Kimberley skies.

Tour Leader
Dean Gibbs
Dean is a very experienced overland Tour Leader and currently our longest serving guide. Prior to working in the Kimberley region, Dean was a diesel mechanic, and while on tour he is the perfect person to have on board should a vehicle encounter any issues. Dean spent many years as a Tour Leader in Africa and South America, guiding travellers through some of the world's most remote and spectacular landscapes.
With a deep knowledge of the Kimberley and a hands-on approach to everything he does, Dean brings a reassuring presence to every tour. His mechanical know-how, combined with years of experience navigating challenging terrain, means there's no situation he can't handle. Whether it's sharing stories around the campfire, pointing out hidden gems along the Gibb River Road, or keeping the convoy running smoothly, Dean's passion for adventure and genuine care for his guests make every trip with him a memorable one.
Tour Guide
Jesse Laws
G'day everyone, meet Jesse – our young gun second-season guide who's keen to share one of the most sacred places on Earth with you. When he's not road-trippin' through the Kimberley, you'll find him down in the South West fighting fires and spending plenty of time out on country. Having spent two years circling Australia exploring its endless landscapes and remote corners, it's safe to say he's pretty comfortable guiding you through the epic country of the Kimberley.
Deeply connected to the land, Jesse has a real appreciation for the spirit this country holds. His passion for the Kimberley shines through in his cheeky grin, his love for a good yarn, and the quiet respect he carries for the stories woven through this ancient landscape.
Tour Guide
Tim Brice
Growing up in the UK Tim was camping and going on expeditions and treks from an early age. This led him to spending many years working in remote locations exploring for minerals, oil and gas around the world including Africa, the Middle East, Europe the Americas and, of course, outback Australia. He recently satisfied a life-long desire to be a tour guide and joined Kimberley Safari Tours. Interests include the geology and ancient landscapes of Western Australia so if you want to know about the amazing scenery of the Kimberley he is the person to talk to.
