Meeting the Qookers People will tell you they are nocturnal,which they are, but they will make time to come out and visit around noon Never feed a Qooker

the most memorable part was snorkelling and bike riding with my boyfriend, so easy to book and collecting tickets were perfect

Aimee_W

I recommend arriving early so you can sit in the top deck. Staff very friendly and helpful. Boat was clean with refreshments and ample seating.

Getting the tickets and into the ferry was super easy. Everything ran on time both ways. We didn’t know you couldn’t get e-bikes until it was too late - which was a shame. The snorkel, mask and flippers were all in great condition. One of the bikes in our party had slipping gears - we told the operators and they put it to one side to fix. The island is fab - need to stay over night if you can. Go to the Basin - great swimming. The quokkas look like they’ve had a hard season and need a rest from the tourists. Highly recommend.

Worst bicycle I have ever ridden… gears not functioning, unsafe brakes. I had to wait to swap it when another ferry arrived. Next bike was a little better but no seat slant adjustment. Very uncomfortable to ride.

The island itself is well worth the trip. We left from the Barrack St jetty because we specifically wanted to hear the commentary about the Swan River. Unfortunately the sound quality of the speakers was so bad that I, even as an English speaker could only pick up about every 10th word. Maybe the ferry company could invest in headphones like they have in museums where the commentary could be also offered in different languages. However, the staff on the ferry were friendly, helpful and knowledgable. The bikes could do with a good audit and service. I had to return my first bike as the seat kept on swivelling and then the bike I ended up with only had 2 gears out of 3 which meant I had to get off and walk my bike up several hills. The food at the Rottnest Pub was really good and overall I would recommend this experience.

Well organised regarding ferry and bike hire. Dome cafe a bonus. Great general store with a surprisingly good selection of wine (and food). Major deficit is lack of clear direction signage when cycling. Maps were good but no signs on roads to link with these. Lots of hills if cycling, hard wok for oldies like us.

Everything as stated on ticket. Get your ticket at the booth before you get in line for the ferry. It is about 1 block before the entrance for ferry. Would have liked to have electric bikes. Lots of hills on island. We did see one quokka ( as they are nocturnal).

We were so excited to go to Rottnest as it was a bucket list experience for me! The trip over was long and a little hot, but we could handle it. Had a wonderful day and it was time to go home and we bordered the ferry for the long trip back to Perth. Once we boarded it was hot!! Disgustingly HOT!! They had 4 Air conditioners going that made no difference at all! Kids on board were sweating while they slept after an exhausting day! The rest of us, trying to get outside on a tiny back area to get some air flow so we dont pass out! For over $100 per person, we should be AT LEAST comfortable! as we were no where NEAR comfortable!!! Even the staff members were outside as it was too hot inside for them! I would not recommend this company as we had an amazing day, but this ruined the day! Defiantly don't take someone elderly on the boat, they are likely to kill them in that heat!! Get some decent ACs Rottnest Express!!!

An amazing experience with the family on hire bikes around the island. We loved the quokka. We saw the whole island, didn't climb the light house as too busy but found amazing turquoise waters to swim in.
