About Us

 Dave and ShirleyTimor Adventures is very much a family concern. We are a husband and wife team who share a lifelong commitment to community work and a passion for adventure travel. Bringing these parts of our lives together and sharing this beautiful country with others is our dream come true. We think we are the luckiest people on earth!
We have strong personal ties to East Timor and are privileged to have travelled extensively throughout the country. We view our role as ambassadors for this wonderful country and are committed to providing travellers with a unique, personal and inspiring holiday.
Our aim in running tours is to contribute to East Timor’s growth as a nation, and have a great adventure while we are at it. We want travellers to be able to visit remote communities, experience this intriguing new nation first hand and hopefully develop a love for the country that stays with them once the tour is over. It is very important to us that our tours respect and help protect the culture and environment of this amazing place. Timor Adventures makes a real contribution to East Timor through our community work.
We have used our experience and knowledge of East Timor to create a range of flexible tour options, all of which have a focus on community, culture and adventure.
Our community and cultural tour itineraries are built around our community networks and are guaranteed to introduce travellers to the real East Timor.
Our adventure motor bike tours are led by Dave or Vanna, both extremely experienced riders with firsthand experience of East Timor’s ‘variable’ (to put it politely) road conditions.

We take pride in being able to say that we have done all the hard work to make your trip a relaxed and enjoyable experience. We know the best places to stay and eat and explore. All our tours are supported by local Timorese drivers and guides who have encyclopaedic knowledge of their countries history and culture to share.
While Timor Adventures is an Australian company we will be basing ourselves in East Timor as of 2012. We look forward to meeting you there
