    Very nice experience. I can see dolphins during the ferry trip. See a lot of quokka on the Rottnest island and they are so cute. Bus tour was great to have a complete tour on the island. I tried an Italian restaurant which offer great foods and services.

  • Good trip

    Good trip but it isn’t a tour, just transport to the island which you can easily book yourself although this is an easy option. Left feeling uncomfortable about how the wildlife is treat by tourists, despite warnings people feeding the quokkas pastries etc The island also has beautiful scenery.

  • For a first time visitor...

    For a first time visitor to the island this was a very good use of time to see all the major sights of the island. The quokkas were really fascinating to watch.
