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
Such a fabulous experience. A monster sized Thankyou to our guides Flick & Jas- tremendous job guys! Many friendships & memories made.
West Coast & Karijini Adventure
Western Australia is not visited by many people, but more really should visit. What am amazing tour we had! Autopia took us to all the greatest sites, and even some extra ones not in the itinerary to enhance our experience. There is a lot of driving as the tour stretches from Perth to exmouth and then back again, but the scenery is so different from anything you will have seen before, and the tour guide gave us lots of stops to stretch and grab snacks. Our guide was Geoff and he was extraordinary. The best of the best! Kind, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. He made sure we were well taken care of. Thanks Geoff!!
Perth to Exmouth Explorer & Ningaloo Reef 7 Day Original Tour
- Perth to Exmouth: 6 Day Coral Coaster One Way Adventure Tour
I had a wonderful time with fantastic people! Saw mostly everything we could up the coast, meals were good, accomodations (shared room option for me) were reasonable. The bus was comfortable, however I'm a small person & activities on offer were enjoyable. Massive shout-out to our Awesome Tour Guide Rhett, who was asked to fill in for the usual guy. It was Rhett's first Perth to Exmouth tour after driving 6 days from Gold Coast to Perth to then drive 23 people up to Exmouth, giving us really interesting information, and managing to entertain also. Not to mention the brilliant driving! To make it even more difficult for Rhett, we all had different iteneries (from booking through different companies) & some changes were made, so we wouldn't miss any of the highlights. All round, I would recommend this trip for people traveling on their own, that don't want to do the drive themselves. It does work out cheaper for us solo traveling.
