Great trip to the pinnacles
Peter_B, Apr 2024
Great trip to the pinnacles. Excellent tour guide. Dinner well catered for. Stargazing experience was fairly minimal, light and cloud a factor here. Perhaps a toilet break on the return journey could be included.
Amazing
Ashley_E, Apr 2024
The tour was great! We had Erin as a guide and she was super knowledgable and explained all the history of our stops and also made the stargazing super interesting by pointing out constellations. Highly reccommend, even if its just so you don't have to make the drive there yourself.
Awesome Vista
Lyn_M, Apr 2024
A most inspiring Vista. Well worth the trip. Sadly a little too much cloud & a WAY too bright full moon to do much Stargazing, but the moon rise was brilliant & the technicolour sunset was awesome. Also our tour guide was very Fri & quite knowledgeable ... for a Yank ... 😅
Well done Summer!!
Kwan_J, Apr 2024
Summer is excellent. She alone did everything for us. Disappointment is your admin re booking - didn't send us the e-voucher till the hotel staff helped us. You had sent to wrong email address.

Tour as described but not worth it
Keryn_S, Apr 2024
Tour was as described however to me was not worth paying for the tour guide and tour component. I’ve been on a lot of similar tours across the world and have never had a tour guide that doesn’t seem interested in doing anything other than the bare minimum. Tour stops were fine but no real explanations provided. Tour guide hardly interacted with group unless necessary. If you just want the trip to the pinnacles suggest hitting a car or lower your expectations of the tour itself.
Stargazing at The Pinnacles
Angela_P, Apr 2024
What a great trip and experience. Summer, our tour guide and driver was fabulous. Summer was very knowledgable on the history/culture of the area and gave a great talk on the stars and planets which are spectacular at night at the Pinnacles, never seen the Milky Way so clear.! Would not recommend driving out there at night solo with no lights and kangaroos roaming, being on a tour bus was best way for safety. Perfectly organised and a great tour. Thank you Summer, you are the best. Love from the Welshies 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear that Summar made your experience memorable, especially with the breathtaking view of the Milky Way. It's moments like these that we strive to create for our travelers. We'd be honored to have you travel with us again, Welshies! Eden.
The Pinnacles is a MUST day trip!
Kathy_T, Apr 2024
Danny was the BEST driver/tour guide/story teller! We loved the outing. We had a delicious picnic dinner under the stars. AMAZING!
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Hey Kathy, Amazing! We are so glad to hear that Danny made your trip special. We hope you will join us again on another tour in the future. Eden.
Disappointed
Sathiyeshwari_G, Apr 2024
We did not go to one of the place from the itinerary, Sand Dunes. We were not informed too Everyone in the bus was disappointed because we were promised to go all the places in the itinerary and different thing happens during the trip day. This is some sort of scam I would say. I appreciate if you could refund us partially since the trip did not go as per the itinerary. We paid high price for this trip and I felt so disappointed.

Memorable Trip to the Pinnacles
Kevin_C, Mar 2024
A great tour to the Pinnacles followed by dinner & star gazing. Our guide Erin was really knowledgeable & she made the whole experience very memorable.
Great Experience!!!
Gail_A, Mar 2024
Erin was an excellent guide & host! Friendly and very knowledgeable. Did loads of driving, knew her southern night sky and the history of the pinnacles. Very friendly and a thoughtful lady!
Awe inspiring!
Robin_S, Mar 2024
What a wonderful way to see a part of Australia I never knew existed! Denny was fantastic and gave just the right amount of commentary and I really learned a lot. He couldn't control the weather so we didn't have much of a sunset or start gazing due to cloud cover but I still give it the best rating because it was truly amazing!
Response from Host, Apr 2024

Jean_D, Mar 2024
We saw some amazing scenery and got nice background stories from our guide, Danny. We missed the sunset and star gazing as it got overcast but that could not spoil the day
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Hi Jean, Delighted to hear you had a fantastic time! Thanks a million for the stellar review. We can't wait to have you join us again hopefully soon! Shania :)
Pinnacles experience
STEPHEN_R, Jan 2024
This is an excellent tour, we had a great tour guide ( Denny ) who explained all about the pinnacles as we watched the sunset ,he is very knowledgeable and made the tour so interesting especially the star gazing. We had a picnic at the end which was a great end to a great day
Response from Host, Jan 2024
Hi Steph, We're thrilled to hear you had such a great time on the Pinnacles Sunset Tour with Denny! Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a great review! We appreciate it! Shania :)
Sunset&Pinnacles: amazing combo :-)
Matteo_M, Jan 2024
Nice tour from the start until the end. About 15 people in a quite interesting couch (maybe some headrests could be added as you are going to spend quite some time in the minibus). Tour guide & driver Sue very knowledgeable of the local flora and fauna and had quite interesting stories of the past events in the area. Thank you for the half trip break when we had some time to enjoy watermelon while stretching our legs and enjoying the scenery around us. Good that at the Pinnacles we did a tour by couch before being left wandering around until dinner time, so we had plenty of time to take picture and admire this amazing natural landscape. Good dinner (maybe it would have been better to have it when there was still a little bit more of natural light) with plenty of food choice. Stargazing experience absolutely fantastic as we were lucky enough to have cloudless sky. I absolutely recommend it and hope to take my family with me next time in Perth.
Response from Host, Jan 2024
Hi Matteo, Thank you for leaving us a great honest review! We always appreciate your feedback and will take in board to continue to improve the tour! We're glad to hear you still had such a great time on the tour! Shania :)
