We didn't do any activity except visiting Pinky's Beach. The water and the sand was soft and crispy. Not crowded which we really liked Defintely would love to come back and visit the museum and do the bike when we can. The history of the island is very important to Acknowledge

Our bus driver was fantastic, very knowledgeable with some comical antics that made us all laugh. Comfortable coach too. The ferry trip was good too, lovely crew and young man at the booking office was very helpful as we missed the ferry as I thought we were on a later one. All in all a fantastic day out at a beautiful island and the Quokkas were the icing on the cake

The weather was great, the waters were calm, I was so surprised how everything works so well on the island- great infrastructure. Awesome bus trip around the island- (we decided to just do the loop as I'm on crutches) lovely meal at the restaurant and got to see the Quokka's!

It was a short boat trip to the island and the boat was cleaned. Related to the push bikes, they did not have any support/basket to leave the bag which was very inconvenient . It should be mentioned while the booking is done.

The very friendly and helpful staff for starters.My grandson absolutely loved the the big swells on the way back to Fremantle. The Sealink Capricornia handled it perfectly. Lastly, we all slept 🛌 well that night.

The tour was very good. What I was unhappy with is the International transaction fee of $ 13.69. Headout seems to be Berlin based & causes this. The tour is in Australia & I booked here, so I expect to only pay the cost in Australian dollars. This fee is a disinsentive & there should be a warning of it during booking. A refund would be nice please. John Bowmer

An awesome island , but as we were seated on the right side of the bus during the tour we missed all the scenic views - which were 99% in full view to the ones seated on the left ..whom obviously was clicking away on their phones . which in essence was the purpose of booking this bus trip was not fulfilled

Nothing, the punchup on the bus finished us off and we got the first ferry off. Too many people in one area for it to be a good experience.

The overall experience was amazing. Had such a great day on the island riding around and seeing all the sights. The ferry trip and the staff was excellent. Very informative with the running commentary heading down to Freo and the staff were very friendly throughout. The ticketing was seemless and very easy. Thank you!
