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.

My ticketing experience with Headout was positive: easy to navigate my way around the site & delivery of eticket was excellent. Absolutely loved exploring Ngilgi Caves, seeing & learning about the different formations. Hubby is 84yrs & I'm 68 yrs, yet we managed the steps down & up because of the clever layout with benches to sit on in each resting spot. Because of the quality, we bought gifts in the store as well. Team was friendly & helpful. Honestly, this was the best 2-3 hrs spent and great value in all respects.

Great afternoon experience. We were 65 and my wife 63. She had a stroke 12 years ago and was uncertain if she would cope with the steps, but had a great time. Great handrails to help you climb the steps down and up. Fantastic rock formations. Nice and cool on a hot day. Very informative all the way around. Highly recommended

I enjoyed how unrestricted the tour was and how deep the caves went. The buildup of the information about how the caves were formed, the cave itself and the history afterwards creates a perfect experience. Quite a physical workout to walk so deep down and then back up.

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 tour guide was really informative and felt really relaxed with her driving. The boat ride over was so smooth i didnt even know i was on the water. I was thankful we were able to catch a earlier boat ride back the same day and nothing was an issue. The only thing i felt was lacking were seats in/around the main harbour. As i am of pension age it was hard to find a seat to rest while walking around some parts of the island after our tour.

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
