Tur de o zi la Pinnacles cu apus și observarea stelelor

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!

Acest tur de o zi a acoperit trei atracții majore: Moore River, Deșertul Pinnacles și observarea stelelor. Deși am întâmpinat cer înnorat și burniță, peisajul spectaculos, enigmatic al Pinnacles a fost absolut uluitor. A lua un picnic în aer liber seara a fost o experiență cu totul unică. Sunt, de asemenea, incredibil de recunoscător ghidului nostru turistic profesionist, care și-a împărtășit cu entuziasm cunoștințele de astronomie în ciuda vremii înnorate. Inițial, decisesem să ne întoarcem mai devreme din cauza vremii nefavorabile. Spre surprinderea noastră, la mai puțin de o oră de la plecare, ghidul a observat că norii se risipesc și a oprit imediat mașina. În momentul în care am coborât și am privit în sus, cerul înstelat s-a dezvăluit miraculos. A fost un moment profund uimitor și emoționant care a adus călătoria noastră la o concluzie perfectă.

We would like to commend our tour guide, Mel (apologies if we have her name wrong), who led the Autopia Pinnacles tour on 7 July 2026. She was professional, knowledgeable, and exceptionally well organised. Not only did she safely drive the group for the 2–3-hour journey each way, but she also prepared a delicious picnic dinner, set up the telescope for stargazing, and shared an engaging introduction to astronomy while we admired the spectacular night sky. We also appreciated her warm hospitality and the personal recommendations she shared about places to visit in Perth. That said, at almost AUD 190 per person, the tour is relatively expensive, with the stargazing experience at the Pinnacles being the main highlight. Sadly, there wasn’t much to see at Guilderton and Nilgen Lookout, it was more of a rest stop for guests and driver. We also felt that a hot or warm meal would have been more suitable than a cold picnic dinner, particularly during winter.

the tour was very well planned and executed! a lot of explanation regarding the sites we had visited. dinner was a new experience and stargazing at night. thank you to our female guide (i forgot the name but was from NZ), for her hospitality and shared knowledge

our guide Erin was a great guide and highly knowledgeable about the land, history of the region along with a expert astronomy guide. and the picnic spread and telescope was well organized. I would recommend this tour for anyone keen on a outdoor desert tour with a stargazing finale.

one of the best tours i took in WA. I enjoyed the Pinnacle and stargazing as the highlight of the tour. I highly recommend you taking this tour! 😉 attractions on the way: breath taking views of indian ocean itinerary: could skip the place where it looks a barren area due to bush fire guide: very knowledgeable about what’s up there in the sky.

Călătorie frumoasă, mi-a plăcut foarte mult vârful… seara ne-am bucurat de mâncare, iar ghidul turistic ne-a explicat despre stele și semnele zodiacale… cerul era atât de frumos… apropo, am uitat numele ghidului turistic, dar autobuzul meu este 718 (17.2.26)… Ea este atât de drăguță și frumoasă, mulțumesc.

Este o zi lungă cu turul, pe drum, vom coborî în câteva locuri pentru a vedea Oceanul Indian, copaci-iarbă, dune de nisip și, în final, Pinnacles. Veți avea o oră la dispoziție pentru a explora, apusul este minunat, iar o cină rece va fi disponibilă, urmată de observarea stelelor și o călătorie de 2 ore înapoi în orașul Perth.

I like the in-between stops at Guilderton and another spot to quickly see some native wild plants, before going to the Pinnacles. Guilderton is a small town built around the Moore River estuary and some nice viewing spots of the Indian Ocean. Pinnacles tour was nice , we had an 1 hr plus to walk around by ourselves, while Kasper prepared dinner for us. Dinner is more like picnic food but good enough. Jasper provided good commentary along the way about history, industry, ecology etc, and is friendly and approachable. The bus had around 20 pax, so it is a good size, not too big. The day we went was abit cloudy but cleared up in bits so we could still see quite alot of stars and a faint Milky Way. There was a blood moon on the way back as well.

We had a great experience in this trip ! Erin, our guide and driver was cheerful and friendly. She shared some of her knowledge in astronomy during the stargazing session. Indeed, we had a enjoyable time.
