Very enjoyable and informative day! - This tour included a pick up and drop off to a nearby hotel which was super convenient! The train trip and guided tour of the World War 2 gun and tunnel site was excellent and gave insight into the past. There was also a bus tour of the island and our guide gave us informative commentary and highlighted points of interest along the way. A great trip for first time visitors to Rottnest Island!

Great Tour! - Well-organised tour which gave us a lot of information about the history and features of Rottnest. The tour guide for the bus trip around the island (Jason) was the most knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide we’ve ever had on a guided tour in the past 20 years!

Excellent day out - Thoroughly enjoyed this all inclusive full day tour of Rottnest Island. Loved the hotel pick up and drop off as I didn't have to think about anything! Rotto is a must see - such a unique island with so much interesting history, flora and fauna. Light lunch was delicious, ample time for photos and rest, staff all very helpful.

Helpful if you can't bike, but very limited exploring - I booked this tour of Rottnest Island because I can't ride a bike and wasn’t sure if exploring on foot would be enough to see everything. While the tour was well-organized and the guide was friendly, just be aware that most of the experience happens from inside the bus. There were only a couple of very short stops and the rest of the time we were driving past places I wish we could have explored more. If you're hoping to really take in the island, this might feel a bit limiting, especially if you're seated on the side away from the views.
