Great trip. Easy pick up and drop off location. Nice Driver Tour guide with clear commentary.Great for the first time visitor in Perth. Recommended!
This was as stated a very long tour with lots of driving time to each location. We enjoyed all the stops except Margaret River which seemed to be more about picking people up as not a lot whee we were dropped off and the timing was such that most of the shops were closing shortly after we arrived. All other stops were worthwhile and could have used more time at them. I would scrap the stop at Margaret River and add time to the caves and lighthouse
It is a great tour, but a very, very long day. I would suggest overnight stays are better options.
A very good trip, it gives you an insight into this area, however, it is slightly rushed, as places are so far away from Perth. I had read reviews before booking, so knew what I was letting us in for. it would be nice to have time to walk along the jetty at Bussleton and go into Cape Leeuwin lighthouse. All quite rushed, but a good trip. Very long day.
