We enjoyed ourselves through out the journey with Kia. He was a great guide & very informative on Wave Rock & wild creatures as we saw them along the way ;) keep it up, Kia! Thanks for making this trip with great memories for all of us :)

We took two different full-day tours of this company - to the Wave Rock and to the Margaret River. We really liked it. Good organization and communication with the guide. A few words about our amazing guide and driver. Kea is nice, knowledgeable, caring person. He took care of us during all the way. He told interesting stories from the life of both modern Western Australia and historical facts. He was happy to answer all our questions. He made our trips unforgettable. Thank you, Kea. We really appreciate your help and engagement.

Interesting driver/guide. Trip very long and Wave Rock was perhaps too far for one day. About 1 hour late getting back. Otherwise an interesting trip.

Friends and I visited were on this tour on 14 November 2022. Our tour guide Kia was superb. He was very knowledgeable, kind, friendly and professional. He offered local Tim Tams and mint milk so that we could have a taste of local food. He volunteered himself to help with photo taken and even laid on ground to take better shots. He understands our needs and always allows sufficient time to visit each element while managing schedule. In order to keep us entertained, he was telling some interesting local stories and introduced some Western Aus music on this long trip. He also keeps seeking ways to improve any services for future guests. He was very impressive. We had a small hiccup with arrangement. The Aussis Perth Tour was very helpful in resolving the issue. I would recommend the Aussis Perth Tour to anyone who wants to see wave rock.

I received the email and text message of the confirmation including pick up location and pick up time. However, nobody did the pickup for me and the phone number of Aussie Perth Tour wasn’t working. How can I be charged for the tour fee?

York was lovely, Wave Rock not surrounded by sand as I first thought but great to be able to walk round. Driver very hospitable. All in all a very productive day. Thank you Viator staff

My brother and I did this tour on 6th March 2020. It was worth the very long drive as on the way there, it was broken up by visiting Historic York, the Dog Cemetery and the failed rabbit fencing, all really interesting. Lunch was average at best. Think I would have preferred to pay less and take my own being honest. We also saw Hippo Rock which I loved before getting to the wave. Our guide was helpful but there was only 4 of us. The other couple were not really talkative so it made for awkward silences. Anyway, it was worth the 8 hours spent travelling.

He was really really nice and good at explaining all the tings. Also, his driving was really good and make people comfortable.

We stayed in a suburb campsite near Perth and they picked us up from there (and back) for the 12 hours wave-rock-tour. Newer minibus, excellent driver, not one uncomfortable situation during the hole day. Long ride - recommendable.
