Things to do in Perth

The trip has been livelier and even better than I thought because of Mr David as he explained it so well and taking care of us throughout the journey. The arrangement is just nice and the timing is on spot. Love it!

A must to go place when you visit Perth - Rottnest Island! Visiting Rottnest Island was one of my favourite experiences during my trip to Perth. From the moment I arrived, I was amazed by the stunning scenery. The crystal-clear blue water, beautiful beaches, and peaceful surroundings made me feel completely relaxed. The highlight of my visit was definitely meeting the famous quokkas. They were even cuter than I expected! Seeing them hopping around freely and getting the chance to take photos with these adorable little creatures was such a special moment. It was impossible not to smile whenever I saw them. Rottnest Island is more than just a tourist attraction—it’s a place where you can slow down, appreciate nature, and create wonderful memories. I left with so many beautiful photos, but more importantly, with memories that I’ll always treasure. If I ever return to Perth, Rottnest Island will definitely be at the top of my list to visit again.

itinerary: 10/10 — enjoyed it up until the very end. everything was clearly briefed and timing was well kept. • attractions on the way: 9/10— visited a number of beautiful beaches, it would’ve been perfect if there were some engaging activities in between on our way to the Pinnacles. nevertheless, views were breathtaking and enjoyable! • group size: 9/10 — there were roughly 26 people during the tour, it was an ideal group size for me, though we did have to squeeze in between our seats • guide: 10/10 — our guide was hardworking, friendly and sweet! she kept the energy consistent and was also inclusive in terms of providing vegetarian / halal meals for muslim tourists! also shared alot of her knowledge on the beaches and deserts we visited!

Booking the tour was straightforward and hassle-free. When you arrive at the ferry terminal, just show your ticket to the crew. After landing on Rottnest Island, you can pick up your hired bike at the terminal by just telling them your name. This way, you skip the long lines and the hassle of renting a bike at the shop. Cycling around Rottnest Island is a fantastic and wholesome way to discover the island’s stunning scenery, as you can pause anywhere you like, and the roads are very bike-friendly. Plus, it’s a real treat to spot the adorable quokkas! Although the weather wasn’t the sunniest, it still made for an enjoyable ride without breaking a sweat.

We were able to take our time watching the dolphins playing, which was such a relaxing and enjoyable experience. It was also fun to see all the beautiful luxury homes along the way — I was especially impressed that they are located so close to where dolphins come! I was able to make a reservation on the same day, which was very helpful. At first, I went to the location pinned as “Mandurah Cruise,” but a staff member kindly explained where I should go, which I really appreciated. It’s also very easy to get there — only about a 10-minute bus ride from Mandurah Station — so I think it’s a perfect place for a day trip!

This was an amazing tour. Started with pickup by Sam from Lumineer at 12.25pm from our chosen hotel in a Toyota Coaster minibus; there were 13 of us on this tour, a comfortable group with people from Australia, US, Asia. Then we picked up Keith (the astronomer), then sandboarding, and finally about 4+pm while still bright, at the Pinnacles desert until dark. *What we love: (1) Sam & Keith: engaging, informative, knowledgeable, hands on. (2) BBQ dinner cooked by Sam. Fantastic spread with steak, chicken and sausages; wine, bubbly, and instant coffee & soup. (Alas the cold weather hardened the meat quickly). (3) The stargazing: beyond amazing. Keith directed us what to look out for - we saw Venus and the milky way. *Misses for us: (1) Minibus: wife sat where the back wheel was protruding; no recline for the long drive; no mobile charging capability; (2) Sandboarding: fun, but climbing up the sand was tiring, unless you're young:) Overall: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, thank u Sam & Keith!

informative tour by the ferry crew that toured the island on a bus come covering the main sites. well organized. would like to have visited the lighthouses and some stops of the tour but weather was quite bad on the day.

Redeemed prior to activities. On the day itself, just board on without the need to show further tickets as they have my name in records. Went for dolphin cruise and perth explorer bus. Spotted multiple dolphins easily with the cruise and is totally worth it. As for explorer bus, i will suggest to give it a miss as there are free buses in perth that can bring you around to the tourist spots. In overall, this klook pass is worth the price as it is so much cheaper than buying the tickets separately.

I heard rumors of its beauty and decided to join the stargazing tour. As a result, the starry sky was incredibly beautiful and deeply moving. But it wasn't just that; the entire day's experience was wonderful, including encountering kangaroos in the park during the day, the sunset view after exploring the desert, and dinner while waiting for the stars to appear. The bus ride was also very comfortable. Since the tour ended past midnight, walking from the bus stop to the hotel was a bit scary, but I made it back without any problems. If it's possible to be dropped off closer to the hotel, that kind of worry might be avoided.
