I really enjoyed the ferry ride out and back to the island. The captain was great, pointing out dolphins for us all to see, and with his array of jokes. He also gave us a run down of the weather so we knew what to expect.
The bike was a downside. The gears were rusted shut so I could not shift up or down. Which was really frustrating.
The overall experience was amazing! And I would do it again.

The crew were very helpful. Even without collecting the wristband for the bikes they organised it for us. So we could still discover the beautiful island on bicycles.
Of course one of the highlights and reasons coming here are the Quoakkas, and we didn't leave without a selfish. Definitely worth the trip.

The boat ride over the ocean was a bit rough, but once we got there all was forgotten as we headed off on the bike in the sunshine! The island was super easy to get around. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful when asked questions.

the explanation of guide of ferry back to perth is understandable for foreigner. I enjoyed the cruise in spite of bad weather. My disappointment a little bit is no prior announcement that we move to freemantle by bus firstly and exchange the ferry.

Great boat ride Perth to Rottnest. Sat on top deck on return- enjoyed it all. Bus tour around island very good. Informative, interesting & numerous commentary by bus driver. Able to get off bus to take photos in few places. Didn't find instructions as to how to get to bus departing place very clear. Time in Rottnest after bus tour & before 4.30pm departure for a wander around the bay, museum & shops. I had a great lunch at Rottnest Hotel overlooking the beach. Ferry staff all very friendly & helpful. I would recommend this ferry & bus tour if only have one day to visit Rottnest Island

Lovely day trip, beautiful place, the ferry was excellent although I did find the commentary a bit muffled. Lots to do on the island, now having seen it I might plan things a bit differently next time. Bus tour excellent Abby and Mark friendly and informative 👍

We loved our driver. Very knowledgeable and entertaining. Made sure we got to see a Quokka in the wild. Coach comfortable, modern and clean. Great way to know what's available on the island so you can then come back to your favourite spots.

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!
