Afternoon Bliss

Great afternoon out guide was very informative lovely part of the Island that you would probably not have visited

Stunning sunset experience

Alli_P, Aug 2024
We had such a great time on this tour and would highly recommend it. Tim was just so knowledgeable about the island, it's history, and ecology. The sunset was spectacular and everything it was advertised to be. Didn't expect the lovely table laid with a beautiful platter of food, comfy chairs to sit and watch the sun set, while sipping on a glass of bubbly. Do yourself a favour and go. The road isn't accessible by hire car so this is an experience you may not otherwise get!

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Hi Alli and Annie, thank you for your awesome feedback, I'm so chuffed you enjoyed the tour. It was a privilege hosting you both. Regards, Tim

Lovely experience

Anna_I, Oct 2023
Magical experience. Tim was an excellent driver and so knowledgable. He prepped snacks and drinks for us and even set up some fairy lights. He provided us with blankets or chairs to sit back and enjoy the sunset

An unforgettable experience

Koala watching in the great outdoors you can't force, wildlife watching doesn't always succeed, but the Westpoint is a wonderful place for the sunset, our guide Tim was very accommodating and could tell a lot about the island, gladly again
