Western Australia Small Group Tours
Western Australia is a little different from the east. Ready to see how? Imagine Perth's laid-back vibe, Margaret River's wines, swimming with whale sharks at Ningaloo Reef, those weird Pinnacles in the desert, and taking quokka selfies on Rottnest Island. WA feels more remote and wild than the eastern cities, and it’s captivating.

Reviews of Small Group tours to Western Australia
- Perth to Exmouth Explorer & Ningaloo Reef 7 Day Original Tour
If I could give 10 stars, I would! If I could give 10 stars for Beth, our guide, I absolutely would! When I first saw such a young driver and tour guide, I must admit I didn’t know what to expect—but Beth completely exceeded every expectation. From the moment she greeted us in the morning to the very end of our long day, she had the most wonderful smile and positive energy. She was incredibly knowledgeable about every place we visited, and always patient, organized, and efficient. Even during our 13-hour return journey, she remained calm, cheerful, and patient through all the extra toilet stops—honestly, I don’t know how she did it! I also really appreciated how well everything was arranged. I was in a private room, and all the accommodation and stops along the way were great—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully chosen. Beth truly made this tour special. She’s an absolute gem, and I can’t recommend her (and this tour) highly enough!
- Perth to Exmouth: 6 Day Coral Coaster One Way Adventure Tour
This tour was by far the most satisfying one I have been on. The other tourists were friendly, the activities were full on and exciting, and our tour guide,Geoff, was attentive to all our needs. I would not only recommend this tour to my friends but would encourage them to take it.
