    It is definitely a great tour. You will learn many things about plants vs fire, see the Indian Ocean and maybe dip your toes, visit isolated areas, wander through the Pinnacles and create your own thoughts of mystery, and the star gazing even through passing clouds was beautiful. Erin was very knowledgeable about it all. The dinner was also perfect for a picnic and plenty for all. It was a long drive in both directions but Erin did a great job. Thank you...

    Fantastic trip

    Sam_F, Mar 2026
    Had an amazing trip to see the Pinnacles Desert. The guides were really helpful and informative. It was lovely to meet the others on the trip too. It was nice to stop off on the way at Gilderston and Hangover Bay. There were some interesting stories as well. It was really good to see the pinnacles at the end and there were clearly marked out routes to see them all. We even managed to meet a young kangaroo and take some pictures with him. The dinner was very well provided for at the end with plenty of the of selection of food including vegan options. Got some nice photos of the sun setting over the see. We then concluded with looking at the stars which was very interesting and the guide was very knowledgeable about which astronomical figures were in the sky; indicating which were there by torch and even seeing the Southern Cross. Fantastic

    Do it!

    Karen_S, Jan 2026
    Highly recommend. The golden hour light at the pinnacles is beautiful. Tour structure gives you about an hour to explore on your own before sunset. Plus a couple of interesting coastal stops on the 2.5 hour drive from Perth to the pinnacles. We had a beautiful clear night for stargazing and took cool photos of the moon through the telescope.The picnic dinner is basic cold meat, salad, bread rolls, dips, Tim Tams, bubbly and juice, but it was nice. Erin was a fun and very informative guide.

    Response from Host, Jan 2026

    Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear you highly recommend the tour and enjoyed the stunning golden hour light at the Pinnacles. It’s great that the structure allowed enough time for you to explore on your own before sunset.

While the picnic dinner was simple, we're pleased it added to your experience. Erin is indeed a fantastic guide, and we’re happy she made your trip fun and informative. Thanks again for sharing your experience!

    Great experience,...

    William_T, Jan 2026
    Great experience, especially if you want to get out of the city and see something you can't see anywhere else. Casper was a fabulous guide, keeping us entertained with just the right information about Australia, the flora and fauna we saw, and the stars! The meal was very nice.

    First, our guide Kasper...

    Heather_H, Dec 2025
    First, our guide Kasper was great. Very knowledgable about area, animals, history and plants. For the cost of the tour, It wasnt really worth it. $154 and was really a bus ride for 1.5hr to a small park area where we walked for 40mjn. Than another bus ride to a little 20 min walk then another bus ride to hangover bay for 20 mjn then to pinnacles. We had about 1 hr to walk around to see the pinnacles before sunset . Meal was meats and salads, cheese, good for what it was. Star gazing was about 1-1.5 hr long and then a 2.5 hr drive back to Perth. Lots of driving. It was enjoyable and nice to see those places but not worth the pricey cost. Again, Kasper was great and the idea of the trip good just lots on on off little walks and not enough time for the pinnacles

    Response from Host, Dec 2025

    Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed Kasper’s guiding and the stargazing, and we’ll take your comments on pacing and value into consideration.

    Adolfo_V, Dec 2025
    We had a great time with Kasper and Erin. They were both friendly and gave us plenty of information about the local flora and fauna. Not to mention about the stars and constellations they pointed out during our stargazing. The dinner was also great with a wide variety of delicious selections and even a little bit of the bubbly! Highly recommend this tour and thanks again to Kasper and Erin.

    We’re happy to know Kasper and Erin helped create such a special evening for you.

    A day out of the city

    Gaye_S, Nov 2025
    Great day out of the city. Gives you a good glimpse of the Western Australia coast. And then the pinnacles are magical. Driver and guide Casper was very knowledgeable about the area, vegetation, wildlife and then at sunset he was a gifted astronomer. Take warm clothes just as it dropped cold at the meal and stargazing.

    Response from Host, Dec 2025

    We’re delighted you had such a magical Pinnacles Sunset and Stargazing experience! Casper will be thrilled to know his knowledge and astronomy skills made the day so memorable. Thank you for sharing your helpful tip about bringing warm clothes,it’s sure to benefit future guests.

    Wayne_C, Oct 2025
    False advertising. That picture attracting to join this tour would never appear. However the overall experience was fine. The tour guide was very heavy in Australian English accent but was funny. It’s just another stargazing experience.

    We booked the Pinnacles, desert, and stargazing trip through Viator and had a fantastic time. Be prepared for some time on the road, but there are a few nice stops along the way to stretch, see interesting sites, and use the washrooms. The food provided was awesome and well beyond our expectations. Erin, our guide and driver, was knowledgeable, friendly, and kept the day running smoothly. The Pinnacles themselves were stunning, and finishing the evening under the desert night sky was unforgettable. Overall, a great experience and well worth it!

    It's not as starry as the picture, but I was happy

    AKIKO_K, Nov 2025
    We don't see as many stars as we see in the image, but we did see about five times as many stars as we normally see. I joined in November, and when I left, it was daytime, so the sun felt strong and hot, but when the wind was strong and the clouds came out, it was cold at night, so I could have a coat. When I look at the starry sky, it doesn't move and it gets cold. I think it would be good if we were taking measures against the cold. I have a little over an hour of free time at Pinnacles, but the view was so spectacular that I took so many photos that I felt it very quickly. I arrived at the hotel around 23:30. It's a long tour, so we recommend a reasonable date to plan for the next day.
