What To Expect
Parker Point
Parker Point One of Rottnest Island’s most iconic coastal spots. Parker Point is famous for its crystal-clear turquoise water, vibrant reef and postcard-perfect shoreline. As you pass by, you’ll see why this area is a favourite for snorkelling and swimming, with shallow waters and coral just offshore creating a natural underwater playground.
Little Salmon Bay
Little Salmon Bay Often described as one of the island’s best beaches, Little Salmon Bay is a sheltered slice of paradise. Calm, glassy waters and brilliant blue tones make it a standout for families and snorkellers alike. Passing this bay gives you front-row views of Rottnest’s pristine coastline and its relaxed, holiday atmosphere.

Don't catch the bus, Tour on a Rottnest Island Rickshaw!

5.00This was the best way to spend the day on Rottnest Island. Our kids absolutely loved it too. They couldn't see anything from the bus last time we were here and the Segway Tours are way too expensive. The perfect day, thanks to Tom our Rickshaw guide.
Unique Rickshaw Ride

5.00Comfortable and unique way to see parts of the island. Two tour options available. We chose to see the lakes, bays and lighthouse at the heart of the island. Our guide was knowledgeable about the island, hidden bays, unique sites, history, indigenous cultural significance plus the unique flora and fauna. He easily ascertained our interests and tailored our tour to ensure he answered all our questions and provided a unique perspective of the island. He was happy to stop for photos, assisting where necessary to ensure we captured the true essence of amazing Rottnest Island. My friend and I have visited before, and have explored the island in various ways. This tour was unique, personalised and provided information and insights we had not been made aware of before. It was relaxing, easy and informative. Would highly recommend for friends, partners, families and people who may not have the ability and energy levels to ride around the island
Best family fun!

5.00A wonderful way to see Rottnest from a different perspective. Tom our guide was chatty, friendly and knowledgeable. He is also an excellent photographer taking photos of us at different viewpoints and the wildlife. We saw Dugite snake, spiders, kestral and birds. We glimpsed lizards but they were too quick for us! Tom even let me pretend to cycle the rickshaw! We had a fun morning in a comfortable rickshaw with no leg work from us. Thank you Tom

5.00This tour was really amazing, it allowed us to see all the beautiful sights Rottnest has to offer in a short amount of time and in a personalised, peaceful way. Tom and Rachel our guides were sensational, knowledgeable and friendly. We would highly recommend this tour and found it especially great with our children.
Get to know Rottnest relaxed and individually

5.00A beautiful and relaxed way to get to know the island and see selected highlights. Due to a knee injury we had to stop our bike ride on single bikes as the unexpectedly hilly roads turned out to be too stressful for my daughter-in-law's knee. The Rikschatour was just the right solution! Very nice guide with background information and tips and very relaxed in the summer heat drive over the island. Highly recommended! Good luck with your young company! Annika and Thomas

5.00Favourite time and so unique! We easily fit two adults and two kids, thought the driver was gonna struggle but they’re electric so it seemed to be a breeze. The canopy shaded us from the hot sun and there were ample toilet and drink stops. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Rottnest.
Best experience in West Australia! Save your energy and just enjoy the views

5.00This was such a well organized and beautiful tour. We'd been recommended to visit the island but thought we were going to have the cycle it ourselves, which, after doing this tour, we realized would have been a damn nightmare. We saw such beauty whilst sitting back in such comfort. If you're going to do Rottnest Island, I certainly recommend doing it this way. We only had the 1 day on the island, but got to see the sights and still get back for a good few drinks before the evening ferry.
Super time, amazing sights, amazing rider
