If you're an early riser (even if you're not), this is the perfect start to your day. The tour lady (I'm so sorry, I forget her name!) is extremely knowledgeable, chipper, and punctual! She pulled up to my hotel right to the minute she was supposed to be there. Had a great, positive attitude and educated us on little things throughout the whole morning. She reminded me a bit of a female Steve Irwin with her excitement. The roos and wallabies were definitely out!! So sweet to see and lots of great photo opportunities. Keep in mind, you are not alone with the roos. There are other tour groups around and you are also kept at some distance to the roos as they eat (understandably). But some do cross over the threshold and come right up to you. We had some great pictures that day. You also make it back to your hotel at an early time ready for another full day! I am not a breakfast eater so cannot comment, but the essentials were there for a sit down meal that needed to be packed. I give 4 stars only which may be as a result of my own beliefs, i truly thought we would be alone on the beach with the roos but lots of other groups. Nothing too huge, but, not as intimate as imagined.

Complete waste of money. The rain came down heavy the whole time right from the start of the trip it should have been cancelled so we could get our money back . Total waste of time saw 2 kangaroos that’s it . Breakfast was basic to say the least. Look elsewhere
