Every town in the Kimberley, no matter how small, has a Kimberley Tourist Information Centre.
And every one of these Kimberley Tourism Information Centres that I walked into has proved to be very helpful.
The lovely staff are always willing to reveal the little local secret places and top spots (if you go about asking the right way...).
I was always given a stack of free maps and information materials, and never did anyone try to sell me any tour or accommodation or anything that I hadn't asked for.

| Derby | Kununurra |
| Fitzroy Crossing | Wyndham |
The only Kimberley Tourist Information Centre that is a bit different is the one in Broome. The staff are still extremely courteous and helpful, but no matter what I asked, I was invariably just presented with a brochure and price list to choose from. Broome just gets too busy for the staff in the Tourist Information Centre to have time for you and it ends up feeling very commercial. They'll make bookings for you, and that's it.
But as you know, I strongly recommend to visit Broome in the off season anyway...
If you think of visiting the Kimberley you probably want to plan ahead, so here is contact information for all the Visitor Information Centres. (If you know what you are after best contact them during the off season. You will find they have a lot more time to answer your questions.) Ring them, fax them, email them, just ask them, they'll help.
