AI summary of 20 reviews
Travellers consistently praise the knowledgeable and engaging guides, the comfortable 4WD vehicle suitable for accessing remote areas, the well-organised itinerary with stops at scenic viewpoints, and the inclusion of meals and refreshments throughout the day. The most striking aspects of the tours are the abundance and variety of wildlife encountered, including dugongs, dolphins, rays, thorny devils, emus and bearded dragons, combined with the stunning scenery of Francois Peron National Park and the guides' enthusiasm for conservation and the area's natural and cultural history. The main caveat mentioned across reviews is that coffee quality could be improved, and one traveller wished for more free time at Cape Peron.
How we collect and publish reviews
Where they come from. Our reviews are gathered from independent review sites and from guests who share feedback with us directly after their trip. They come from people who have actually travelled on the tour. Some longer trips are made up of shorter tours we also sell, run back to back — where a review was written about one of those legs, the review says so.
Why some are edited. Many of our guests travel in their second or third language. Where a review is hard to read, we lightly edit spelling, grammar and punctuation, or paraphrase a sentence for clarity. We never change the rating, the meaning or the sentiment, and we never write a review on a guest's behalf.
Reading the originals. Reviews sourced from public review sites appear there in their original form, and can be read in full at their original source at any time.
The off-road tour of Francois Peron National Park was unforgettable. Our guide Suryan, a biologist, spotted emus, a thorny devil, a bearded dragon, rays, galahs, mating dugongs, a tiger shark and masses of wildflowers, and took us to other-worldly lookouts.
A great way to reach hard-to-get-to places without your own four-wheel drive. Our guide Dutchy made a point of engaging every guest, the truck was comfortable on a rough road, and the hot tub at the end soothed the jarred bones.
We did the 4WD tour and saw lots of wildlife including a thorny devil, learning about the biology, marine life and history of Francois Peron. Nice morning tea and lunch wraps, a swim in the ocean, and a lovely, knowledgeable guide from the Netherlands.
We did the 4x4 tour with Suryan and had a fantastic day. The drive was very bumpy, which our kids loved, morning tea and lunch were plentiful and tasty, and Suryan was very informative.
A top 4x4 tour in beautiful weather. Mat kept us informed all day, and the tour had great variety with scenery, snorkelling and wildlife.
A wonderful day on the 4x4 tour in beautiful weather. Suryan explained Shark Bay's history so well, the food was great and the other guests were friendly, though the coffee could be better.
