“Chase the Sunset at the Majestic Pinnacles
Desert”
Join us for an unforgettable adventure tailor-made for those
with limited time but an insatiable desire to witness the enchanting
transformation of the desert limestone landscape as the sun dips below the
horizon.
Depart from Perth and journey north along the Mitchell Freeway, where you’ll
pass by Powis Lake, home to graceful Black swans. Continue through Karrynup,
renowned for the prestigious Johny Walker Golf tournament, and venture into the
picturesque Joondalup areas. As you drive through Yanchep and rustic Australian
countryside, you’ll find yourself on the doorstep of Nambung National Park,
home to the otherworldly wonder known as The Majestic Pinnacles Desert.
The Nambung National Park is an otherworldly landscape in the making for
thousands of years. This unique limestone formation appears like an
extraterrestrial terrain, a sight that defies imagination. The Pinnacles, of
varying shapes, sizes, formations, and textures, create a breathtaking backdrop
for unforgettable photo opportunities. Each Pinnacle is a testament to the
marvels of nature, with no two formations alike.
As the sun begins its descent in the west, watch in awe as the Pinnacles
undergo a stunning transformation in both color and texture. The fading light
creates a surreal spectacle, casting a kaleidoscope of hues across the natural
formations. With minimal light pollution, the sky becomes a canvas of stars,
bringing the night to life.
Don’t miss the opportunity to capture these extraordinary moments with your
camera or smartphone. The Pinnacles Desert offers an ever-changing, dreamlike
backdrop for unforgettable photo and selfie sessions.
After an exhilarating time in this surreal landscape, we return to Perth,
leaving you with memories of a day filled with enchantment and wonder.
Savor this unique chance to witness the Pinnacles Desert at
its most magical during sunset. A truly special experience, perfect for those
seeking an otherworldly adventure in the heart of Western Australia.
Unveil the Mysteries of Nambung National Park and its Enigmatic Pinnacles Desert
Just a scenic 2-hour drive from Perth, you’ll find yourself amidst the captivating Nambung National Park, home to the extraordinary Pinnacles Desert. Here, you’ll bear witness to a mesmerizing natural wonder – thousands of limestone pillars that rise from the earth like ancient sentinels. These pillars are the remnants of time, sculpted from limestone beds formed by ancient marine life such as coral and mollusks.
The Pinnacles vary in form and size, with some soaring to majestic heights of up to 3.5 meters above the golden sands, resembling stately columns. Others stand as shorter, enigmatic figures, resembling ancient tombstones. As you explore this otherworldly landscape, you’ll notice intricate cross-bedding structures, evidence of the ever-changing winds during the limestone formation.
Discover Pinnacles with tops resembling mushrooms, a testament to the resilience of nature. The calcrete capping on these pillars is more robust than the limestone layer beneath, causing the softer lower layers to weather and erode, leaving behind these unique formations. Nambung National Park is a treasure trove of natural wonders waiting to be explored.

I have booked with them to pinnacle it was wonderful tour









The tour didn't start well. I tried to call and confirm the pick up time and location, and also inform Aussie Perth Tours about a potential road closure at my hotel. Nobody bothered to reply to my message and calls were engaged all the time.
The driver came to pick us up at 9am. We were shocked to learn that we were the only 2 customers. That didn't bode well
As it turned out, this is the most over-sold, and over-priced tours I had in Perth.
Along the way, commentary was minimal, almost non existent. The places we visited were anything but interesting. The cave tour was boring, very badly lit, and the guide was basically talking to himself most of the time. Then, the driver dropped us at a spot in Yanchep Park, telling us to roam around for 15 min, without telling us anything else -- eg the significance of the place, or what to see or do. So we wondered off, trying to spend the 15 minutes meaningfully. Basically there is nothing to see or do. We went back to the van, and the driver wasn't even there. 8 minutes later, he returned to the van, with his breakfast. I guess the spot was chosen so that he can get his breakfast?
Then, a short distance drive later, we arrived at the Koala place. All the koalas were all high up in the trees. Nothing to see there. Then, the driver said to drive us to another place, without saying what is there. I thought we were supposed to have some kind of bushwalk or something or see some kangaroos in the wild, like what the tour description said . but no.
We arrived at this park. Again, he dropped us off, and told us to roam around for 30 mins, again, without offering more information about the significance of the place, what to do, what to see. Again, we had to try to spend 30 minutes of our time meaningfully at this park, which we failed.
After the agonizing 30 minutes passed, he drove us to the Hillarys. After telling us there are food places in the mall, and there is this Aqua place we can visit (tickets not included), he again dropped us off, without any further information. He then said another van will pick us up and return us to the hotel at 3:30pm. If we ended up earlier, we can call them to send a driver early.
The marina was nice, but the mall was very run-down. Nothing to shop there and nothing much to eat. Again, we had to somehow stretch our time to fill up the 2.5 hours we have. Again, we failed because there is simply nothing to do there. (The Aqua tickets were expensive. We are not doing to spend more $$ after spending $200+ each pax for this useless tour).
After lunch, we couldn't stand it any longer and called them to pick us up at 3:15pm.
In summary, this tour is the worst !!!!! DO NOT sign up for this tour. This is the MOST OVERSOLD and OVERPRICED tour. Considering the fact that a full day Wave Rock tour (by another agency) costs $200+ person, covered 10+ hours of driving (this tour only covers 2+ hours of driving), and included lunch (this tour doesn't include any meals. The only entry was to Yanchep which is just A$17 per vehicle).

Mary of Aussie Perth tours gave us possibility to fully appreciate Wildlife Park according to our interests.
We also had possibility to have good wine and chocolate tasting in two farms of Swan Valley.
We suggest to do this tour with Aussie Perth tours.

The only good thing was the kindness of the guide, the driver of the minibus.

If anyone wants to get a stupid tour wasting money, Aussie Perth tour is your best choice.
To Aussie Perth tour: Do not reply to me, any word from Aussie Perth tour will make me sick again.



Thank you

They picked us up on time and got us to all of the spots we wanted to go to. We were able to stop at a couple of places we wanted to (including the beach!) and even took us to a second winery. Huge thumbs up!
saw lot of things in short time.hotels 100pc
suggest out wave rock ,long drive last day.
try to busselton then south coast to albany
poss 2 nights there.then esperence 2 night
if not head back to perth via wellington dam/collie.

Here you get transport to the area and the cave and that’s it.
Do yourself a favour. If you want to visit Yanchep rent a car for the day and you’ll do it for a fraction of the cost of this tour


I had a wonderful time as the tour was fantastic. Graham is a very informative and friendly tour guide and we had a instant connection. It felt like an old friend had given me the tour to places that I have never been before.
Once again, thank you Phil. You truly made my day!



BE AWARE THAT AUSSIE PERTH TOURS DOES NOT HAVE THE NECESSARY (FINANCIAL) KNOWLEDGE TO MAKE A REFUND
Aussie Perth Tours lacks the necessary (finacial) knowledge to make a refund through the credit card used to pay or via a bank transfer.
Explanation: I live in the Netherlands. English is therefore not my native language. Apologies for any mistakes.
I will try to make the story as short as possible, it covers many months.
Before covid broke out I had booked in 2019 a tour in 2020 through Australia for my partner and me. I had paid for all transport, all hotels and all excursions.
Due to covid I have had to cancel that trip twice (2020 and 2021)
I have asked all organizations to put the paid amounts on an account for the future.
Many complied with that request, but a few preferred a refund and did so through the credit card I paid with.
Aussie Perth Tours agreed that the two booked and paid excursions could be rescheduled.
Through repeated emails I have asked to reschedule the excursions.
Because I received no response for a very long time, I called the number mentioned on their website several times (26X)
I did not get an employee on the line.
Finally I turned to the CPA (Consumer Protection Australia) and after many email exchanges, the CPA indicated that I was entiteled to the refund, but that they didn’t have the resources to enforce the refund. (complaint reference No. 214362)
Aussie Perth Tours informed me that they have tried to refund the money through the credit card, but that this was unseccessful, and they sent copies of those attempts.
I have been in contact with my bank who was surprised that it had not worked out. The bank provided me with all the necessary information for a refund through the credit card, which information I forwarded to Aussie Perth Tours.
I also indicated that a refund was also possible via a bank transfer and that I would pay the associated costs. This can be indicated when making a bank transfer: who bears the costs.
I also provided all the necessary data for the bank transfer (such as the name of my bank, de the number of my account, the BIC/SWIFT Code)
This happened well before we left to Australia.
Before leaving to Australia (our trip: November 22, 2022 to Januari 24, 2023) , I found out that I still had not received a refund.
Because their office was located – according to their website – in Perth and our hotel (Pan Pacific) was only a few hundred meters away from that office, we walked there.
On the door was the message that the office was no longer located there and that Aussie Perth Tours only could be contacted via the website or by telephone.
Because our bad telephone experiences in the past, I sent Aussie Perth Tours an email, in which I explained in which hotel and how long we were staying in Perth.
I didn’t receive any response on that email.
To date I have not received a refund.
Remarkable detail: only when CAP contacted Aussie Perth Tours, I immediatly received a somewhat angry email from them.
I repeat again: other organizations were able to do a refund through the credit card or bank transfer. (Royal Carabian gave a refund via a bank transfer when they had cancelled the cruise leaving from Sydney on January 9, 2023; I had paid them too via a bank transfer)
IN SHORT: BE AWARE THAT AUSSIE PERTH TOURS DOES NOT HAVE TE NECESSARY KNOWLEDGE TO MAKE A REFUND
Bernard The Netherlands, June 26, 2023.
thanks very much!

It's unfortunate that I have to strongly recommend against this company since the tour itself, and the tour guide, were fine, and this tour is great for first time visitors to Perth. I would recommend this type of tour, but from another tour company that does not engage in deceptive business practices like this one. Customers should be told about all fees at the time of booking so they can make an informed decision whether to take the tour or not.



Thanks again




1. Caversham Wildlife Park and Swan Valley: see native animals, eat local chocolate and drink local wine. YOUR GONNA HAVE A GREAT FUTURE, EH?
2. Pinnacles and Yanchep: Yanchep is boring, but does have Koalas, but they are far away. Pinnacles are amazing, Ive seen them dozens of times, still like them.
3. Wave Rock. An endurance tour, a big day, but worth it. Wave Rock, Hippo Yawn, the Salt Lake, York, Dog Cemetery, etc.
4. Margaret River Tour: Awesome. If you do this tour please ask to do Canal Rocks as an extra. Worth seeing.
5. Kalbarri National Park and Shark Bay: Monkey Mia Dolphins aren't guaranteed. Lots of driving. But you get to see some beautiful coast.
6. Perth Mint and Fremantle: you will love this, but I will loathe it. There's never any parking.
Shop around and book early to avoid this over priced, disappointing day. Our driver/guide tried very hard but was inexperienced with these tours but was very entertaining. Arranging and confirming bookings was challenging.

Many thanks



Thank you.























Graham was professional, friendly and kind. He was punctual and picked us right outside our hotel. My husband and I had a lovely time and felt well taken care of when we visited various food/wine tasting stores. He gave great recommendations for the food/wine and sightseeing around Perth. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing the wildlife at Caversham and the farm show. The tour extended beyond the duration and he was still all smiles. Highly recommend!
