Leighton & David were excellent guides. Their talks were informative, funny & entertaining. They included many interesting facts about the island plus animals from other areas around Perth

We did the 12.5k trip (3hrs) on Rottnest Island... quite open so watch out on a hot day but a fairly flat trip with lots of insight from salt pools, lighthouse (where there is a drink/snack truck) and amazing white sand beaches! Deb and Tracy our guides were lovely too :) Recommend

We actually never went because the ferry was cancelled but I had to reach out several many times the day before the trip because I never heard from the company about my ferry tickets that I had pre-paid. When I emailed them, I got an email saying that the owner was on vacation and unless it was urgent… to wait two weeks for her return. Really. Once I reached someone to learn that the Ferry was cancelled it was then another whole bother to get my money refunded for the entire trip. Very unprofessional company. I would be worried about booking a trip and actually getting good communication from the company about the trip.
Best way to experience Rotto!

Hiking is a great way to take in the environment of Rottnest. Our guide, squirrel, was welcoming, pleasant and informative. Not only was it a lovely hike, it was also an opportunity for like minded people to share their stories of hiking and adventure.
Relaxed guided walk

We had an absolutely fantastic day! We weren’t rushed and stopped for photos, to look at scenery and even saw a few whales and seals. Much nicer than the bike tour , we saw so much more of the coastline and had a beautiful day !
Do it!

An incredible two days, couldn’t ask for anything more. So many beautiful bays - each unique. We did the glamping option. I highly recommend. Thanks so much Kate.
