Nice half day out on Ningaloo Reef

Nice half day out on Ningaloo Reef. Knowledgeable, friendly and helpful crew and nice boat. Dived at two great spots on the reef. BBQ hot dogs the light lunch on board. Lovely experience made even better by seeing several turtles. Perfect experience for families or if you are not a confident snorkeller.

Fantastic experience and knowledgeable guide

A great day out. We saw reef sharks and turtles up close at the cliffs. Then at the snorkling stop we saw turtles, little sting rays, plenty of fish and bright coloured coral. We had some nervous and inexperienced drivers in our group But Mitch our guide was patient and kept us safe. By the end the nerves were gone and the smiles were big. We recommend the tour to people of all ages.

Amazing reef snorkelling with no hassle

We were the only couple on the tour, everyone else was part of a large group of family and friends, but we had an amazing time, the tour operators were very friendly and the boat ride was gorgeous. Of course the highlight was the reef and the things we saw, the two snorkelling spots were amazing, the second one especially so. Could not be happier.

Late Cancellation

We booked this tour at midday. We paid the full amount and we told to meet at 10 am the next day. We received a all from them at 7 pm advising that the tour would not be going ahead due to sickness. We were offered different tours but we had already been on those previously. While I understand that people get sick you would think they would have some contingency processes in place. We only had one day left and couldn't get similar tour at that late notice. Then to rub salt into the wounds we were given a refund less fees and charges. Fairly poor service and a waste of a potentially great day.

Een geweldige ervaring

We have had a wonderful day with John and Maddy. We saw all kinds of fishes, a turtle and far away even a dolphin. Lunch was nicely prepped by John. Both could tell a lot about the sanctuary and what to do. All together a spectaculair experience for us Dutchies 😉 Thanks so much!

Great tour

We had a great time on the boat and snorkeling. The crew was great and the boat well equipped. We saw lots of fish, most of the coral was unfortunately dead. Our wetsuits were too thin, half the group didn’t go in for the second time as they were too cold. A thicker wetsuit would really help to make the most of the tour. Apart from that, would highly recommend the tour operator!
