Hi! We’re Bold Gorilla

For the past four years we’ve run group activities to some of the coolest and most interesting places in the world.

These are not the usual group tours. Everything is built around giving people an opportunity to make friends and have amazing experiences together, on their own level. They're adventures, learning experiences, and friendship incubators rolled into one!

The day-to-day experience of our trips is also very different. Everything is very flexible, because we want it to be fun, not stressful.

We don't want anyone to feel like they are being pressured to go places or do things, when they actually just need a rest or want to hang out with their new friends. We also understand that some people love to be constantly on the go, but others need time to themselves or rest days in between activities. So everything is flexible and self-directed and there are no strict deadlines or schedules.

Travel is always the best investment - we just make it less stressful and more fun.

Our Team

  • Brook - director

    Hi! I'm Brook and I founded Bold Gorilla four years ago.

    It all started with my son, Fin.

    I love to travel - Fin does not. But I found a workaround! I realised that he doesn’t want to go anywhere just with me, but he is up for pretty much anything if he can go with a group of kids.

    So I started Bold Gorilla and that’s what we do. It's the best job in the world!

  • Felicity - bookings manager

    I joined Bold Gorilla in 2024, after completing the Queensland Convoy with my family. We had an amazing time on the trip so when I heard there was an opening for a bookings manager I jumped on it.

    My job is to book all the accommodation and activities for Bold Gorilla. My superpower is organisation, so you'll hear from me a lot in the lead up to your adventure, as I work through all the little details that make for an amazing trip.

  • Deearrn - operations manager

    As the operations manager my job is to keep everything at Bold Gorilla running smoothly.

    I'm the person you'll talk to when you send through a question about a trip or make a booking. I make sure that our clients and our trip co-ordinators have everything they need and are supposed every step of the way.

  • Kelly - accounts officer

    I'm your go-to person for all things finance at Bold Gorilla.

    I make sure our records are organised and efficient, so we can focus on delivering great experiences.

    I manage invoices and payments, so you'll hear from me when you make a booking. I'm always available to talk through anything you don't understand about pricing or invoicing.

  • Brenda - lead trip co-ordinator

    I've travelled all around the world and worked in tourism in some of the most interesting places on Earth, so if you have any questions about skiing in Bulgaria, camping in Ethiopia or overlanding through Angola, I'm the person to ask.

    I advise on all of Bold Gorilla's trips and I run a lot of them myself, so there's a good chance you'll meet me on the road!
