5.00This is a tour not to be missed. It took us to places we couldn't have accessed ourselves. Ryan and Mick shared bucket loads of unique local information to us as they took us to sites they know well. We sighted animals and plants we wouldn't have spotted without them. We took photos. They named and described the animals, fungi, plants we saw, gave us geological and historical information also. In three and a half hours, we were able to gather a comprehensive overview of the captivating Cape Naturaliste area. And we were given a surprise too. Friendly, genuine, and generous guides. And very professional.

5.00We were arriving in the area by cruise ship and booked our 4 hour tour directly only the day before. Despite there being only 4 of us (2 couples) we had the full size van to ourselves. The vehicle is well cared for and very comfortable. Our guide, Ryan, met us at the port and dropped us back there afterwards. Our tour included a platter of local nibbles and drinks too at about the midway point. Very nice touch and all the local cheeses, honey, and nibbles were delicious! As for the guided tour, it was awesome. We have travelled the world over and have had many tour guides along our adventures, Ryan was honestly the most informative, interesting, thoughtful, and add to that he has a great sense of humour! Along the drive to our first hike, Ryan provided us with a great narrative of the local area and people. Our short hike through the bush let us see many interesting sights and learn how historically the aborigines used the different plants for medicinal purposes and making fire. Our second hike was longer, the Cape to Cape trek provided us with amazing vistas and photo-ops of the beautiful sand beaches. It was midday so we didn’t see much in the way of reptiles, but the variety of birds were plentiful. We stopped at several view points along the coast for pics before heading to the “Kangaroo Safari” portion of the trip. Ryan took us to a local golf course that has essentially been taken over by the bouncing wonders. Tee to green, the kangaroos ruled the fairways! We were able to get out and take some great shots of a wild mob grazing in the local schoolyard, a sight we don’t see everyday back in Canada. Along the drive back to the port, Ryan shared a video relating to the eco efforts being taken to preserve the great outdoors and oceans. Well done Ryan, fabulous trip! Thank you!
One must do in Busselton!

5.00The best thing you can do in WA (probably in Australia)! This has been hands down the best tour/activity we have ever done on holidays! Our guide, Ryan, was so knowledgeable, friendly and fun! We got to see so much of the South-West from the pristine coastline, to the amazing wildlife, all the while being informed by a guide with SO MUCH local knowledge!! The local produce that we got to taste was amazing and should not be missed! Seriously, if you have a short stay in Busselton (eg. Tour ship stop, quick weekend WA visit), this should be the only activity you book! Well worth it and true value for money! Well done Ryan and the whole team and manu thanks for a memorable experience!!
Just brilliant!

5.00Mick our guide was a local whose passion for the animals and environment of WA was endless. His knowledge of the history and development of this part of Australia was really impressive. The local produce was a real treat. I would highly recommend this tour…

5.00Ryan is a brilliant guide - personable and knowledgeable. A local boy, he knows all the most interesting locations. We saw dolphins, got up close with kangaroos, learned traditional usage of various flora and - not usually my favourite subject - we got a practical and fascinating understanding of local geology. A selection of snacks from local produce completed an excellent four hours together.
A wonderful way to spend the day and learn more what is available at our doorstep!!
