• Rottnest Island is small but packs a serious punch

  Good experience but the experience could be planned better with more time needed. We found the time spent on the island very short and had to be on the run and move all day to meet tour and ferry departure times. Need more time on the island.

• Very difficult to hear...

  Very difficult to hear announcements on the ferry. Spoke far too quickly. Very difficult to hear ferry announcements. Spoke too quickly.

  What a fabulous day out! The Rottnest Express was a great way to travel, combining a scenic river cruise and a high speed ocean crossing. The bus tour was really good, with some entertaining commentary from our guide Holly. My only slight criticism is that it would have been nice to have at least one more stop although the stop we made at the west end of the island was great. We spent the afternoon walking on the beach and viewing the cute quokkas.

  My Son and I went to Rottnest Island to see the Quakkas and got on a tourist bus on the island twice, each time with a different driver, who gave a different view point on the island.. They are doing some development on the island, with tourist dwellings being built.

• A wonderful trip and day,...

  A wonderful trip and day, as noted by many others. In addition, a big thank you to the crew and guides who went above and beyond to sort out some snafus for me, making the day especially wonderful.

• Well worth a visit

  Great place to visit. Transfer to the island and around the island had great information and Holly provided a very detailed commentary which was fun too. I think if I'd realised there were so many beaches to see I'd have stayed overnight.

  This was a great trip. The ferry journey was smooth, and the commentary was entertaining; pointing out many points of interest along the Swan River to Freemantle. The tour around Rottnest Island was also very good. Mark gave a great commentary, and Larry was a safe driver, allowing plenty of time to see points of interest along the route.

  It's good to see all the things that happened in the lap-of-the-island trap. You can go to the beach in the morning and have time to shop
