What people love about Western Australia Tours for Seniors
- 4 Day Perth to Monkey Mia Coastal Loop Comfort-level (Accommodated) Tour
Great tour, had an amazing time. Made even better with tour guide/driver Erin who was great fun, very knowledgeable and always willing to help with anything. My only negative was the bus is a bit cramped considering the amount of time you spend on the bus.
- South Western Escape
Really great way to see Western Australia and what it has to offer, the coast was an absolute highlight
Our tour guide Geoff was incredible! He is a kind, gentle soul who really has a passion for the job and sharing his experiences. Our group was a mix of different ages, nationalities and life experiences which was really nice and refreshing. The shared accommodation was in mixed dorms which was absolutely fine, all had comfortable beds, hot water & AC. Food on tour was a group effort which provided a great group bonding session in the evening. There was quite a lot of driving involved, but this time passed very quickly with 2hly toilet/snack breaks and Geoff was a trooper with doing all the long drives (I wouldn't have been able to do it). The itinerary for this tour was incredible, it ticked off every single place that I wanted to go on the west coast if I would have explored it by myself! I couldn't have asked to see any more! Optional extras of abseiling in Kalbarri NP, Swimming with manta rays in Coral bay & Swimming with whale sharks in Exmouth were 100% worth paying for. Once in a lifetime experiences. The only minor downside of this tour is that the bus is quite small and cramped. 1000% will be booking with Autopia again.
