It was a good tour and very informative. The guide was very helpful and explained all facts in great detail.
Anton our Tour Guide was exceptional. Full of interesting and informative facts and figures. He made the day very enjoyable and I thoroughly recommend both Anton and the tour.
Pinnacle tour and star gazing later in the night are both awesome experience. †he visit to the koala sanctuary was bit of let down. There are b no Kangaroos even though the our promised sighting of wild kangaroos.
Chris and Grant are really nice and professional guide. The pinnacle is amazing but be ware of the weather for the Milky Way. If it is cloudy, you won’t be able to see any stars but the guides are still really patience to tell us all the details of the Milky Way. Pay extra to upgrade to a half lobster which is totally worth it. And the national park koala is really cute.
Absolutely fantastic experience. Our guides were just fantastic and had such great knowledge of the stars and planets. Would highly recommend this to everyone
We had a great driver/guide Pete who was excellent and very informative about our surroundings. We loved the experience of star gazing, amazing!
The trip was very well organized. The driver and the guide were very kind and extremely knowledgeable about the history of the place and Australia! The driver explained more about the history of the country. The guide also became a Star when in the evening the group gazed at the stars. He gave a master class to our delight. And the beautiful landscape of the pinnacles is a must see. It was a great, magical experience. Thank you, Guys! Carmo and Phil Eggers
Excellent afternoon and evening out with Bec and Grant. The commentary from Grant while Bec was driving was excellent and the stop at the National Park and then for an evening meal was just right. The Pinnacles tour at sunset was very picturesque and then after a wait for the sky to get dark came the most interesting part of the tour. Grant gave an excellent lecture on the night sky pointing out planets etc making a great end to the day.
First time visit to WA! I really had no idea of what to expect but thought the Pinnacles looked amazing. Going there WAS incredible. So glad we did! The highlight was looking at the stars through the eyes of a passionate Astronomer. Magical 🌟
Very nice, pleasant experience with a special mention for the driver/guide "jamico" (?) who was very professional, friendly and precise! Well done!!! Bravo!
