Things to do in Busselton

Had a really amazing tour with Don to Margret River. Firstly, hotel pick up was available all around the city to bring us to a meet up point where we will change bus. Then we will get introduced to our tour guide of the day. Don, our tour guide, is a knowledgeable and easy going guy. He went through the history of Australia and the different towns during the two hours drive from Perth to Bussleton Jetty, which is really amazing how he remembers the details so well! We got to visit the Bussleton Jetty, wine tasting at Woody Nooks Wine, lunch at Cheeky Beers, explore Mammoth Crystal Cave, visited the Cape Leeuwin lighthouse and a small town in Margret River. Overall the tour was nicely planned out with just enough time for us to explore the areas.

Our tour guide and driver, Johnney, worked extremely hard. He started picking people up at 7:00 AM and didn't finish the day until around 9:00 PM. Driving all day like that is really tiring. At 7:30 PM, while we were still on the road stargazing, he helped us take portraits under the starry sky. True to practice makes perfect, he handled it with complete ease. The only minor regret was that the guide was a bit of an introvert, and with an entire bus of introverts, haha, it was quite quiet. Also, we felt the itinerary was a bit flawed, which is something the travel agency might want to consider. It was way too packed. The winery they took us to wasn't a well-known one in Margaret River, but rather a smaller one with poor scenery, and there wasn't even enough time for a wine-tasting tour (even though everyone was rushing). We suggest either removing this stop so people can spend more time at other locations, or heading back to the city earlier.

The activity operator was Naturaliste Charters. Due to weather conditions, the activity location was changed to Augusta. We were on a two-story yacht. The first deck of the boat had indoor seating, but we spent most of our time on the deck watching whales. The captain was very experienced and successfully led us to humpback whales. We traveled alongside the whales for a long time. The guide shared a lot of interesting information about whales throughout the trip. We had plenty of time out at sea. It's a shame we didn't see any Southern Right Whales. Overall, we had a great time! It was a fantastic experience. Also, I want to remind future travelers that the sea can be quite rough, so if you're unsure about motion sickness, be sure to take seasickness medication in advance. Our friends who joined us didn't get seasick when they went dolphin watching before, but they did this time.

We had a fantastic Margaret River day tour! Everything was well organised, and our driver/guide, Michael, was friendly, knowledgeable, and kept the day running smoothly. We visited beautiful scenic spots, enjoyed great food and wine, and had plenty of time at each stop. Even though Lake Clifton was closed, the replacement stop at Vasse Virgin was a nice addition. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to experience the best of Margaret River in a day!

guide+driver 89 is experienced and guided well during the whole trips.

The journey from Perth to Margaret River is quite long. This tour manages to visit wineries, the coast, and take a mini-train ride all in one day, making the itinerary very full. However, it's a bit of a shame that lunch only involves sharing pizza with other tour members.

Very smooth tour despite the weathers and made us missing the train in the jetty. Thanks

It was an enjoyable train ride and we saw dolphin near the jetty! The observatory is educational and we highly recommended to book the earliest slot to avoid the crowd.

**Fast, easy and cheaper on Klook! 🚂✨** I bought the ticket on the same day early morning and there were still slots available for the 3pm train. The booking process was super fast and fuss-free. When we arrived, we simply went to the counter and scanned the Klook QR code to exchange for the physical ticket. Very convenient! The best part is that **Klook was cheaper and there was no credit card surcharge**, while the official website charges an additional credit card fee. Definitely recommend booking through Klook!
