My husband and I took the tour last Sunday and thought it was fantastic. The speed boat ride was lots of fun and the crew, Ollie and Talitha provided great commentary and went that extra mile to find the wildlife around the island. We then spent the rest of the day looking around the island and had lunch at the pub. It's a lovely place to visit whilst in WA. And yes it was very easy to see the quokkas.

We had a blast! Great way to see the beautiful coast of the island. We were fortunate to come across a seal pup just a few weeks old, really special moment, he was adorable. High speed boat was heaps of fun!!!

Friday the 16th of March my sister and I booked a trip to Rottnest leaving from Fremantle at 9.30 AM on the Rottnest Ferry. We had booked a speed boat outing for an hour and a half going around the whole island. Damo the captain and Des the wildlife expert were our hosts. Instructions were given on how to exspierence a safer ride sitting at the back or more like a roller coaster at the front of the boat. Informing us if Damo sees a opportunity for adventure he is going to hit that wave so be ready for the thrills. Seeing dolphins and seals and then heading back to finish off with a couple of donuts naturally not to eat. Im sure everyone enjoyed the speed boat ride, I know my sister and I did

Loved Rottnest Island and saw several Quokkas. The speed boat ride should not be missed. . We saw seals and stingrays up close riding in the boat. The boat took us to beautiful areas not accessed from the island.

Absolutely the best tour trip my wife and I have ever had the scenery around the island is amazing still pristine and unspoiled by tourism would recommend this tour to anyone you will get the thrill of your life and the crew of the fast speed boat Captain Guy and Des were excellent just make sure you sit at the middle to back of the boat as it can get pretty bumpy highly recommended

Everything about this trip fantastic except the lunch. Food inedible and really not necessary as plant of places to buy food or sit down and have a meal for far less.

I booked my tour over the phone with someone in Los Vegas. It was a pleasant interaction, and I thought all was in order. It turned out I was booked on the wrong tour. The one I did go on was nice, the boat ride was informative, but not worth the money. My time on the island was fun and interesting. Everyone should go over there if you are in Perth.

The Speed boat ride was really exciting, we watched a few humpback whales on the way to Rottnest Island! The guide was very friendly and informative. The dolphins and seals are great too, definitely worthwhile trip

One of our favourite tours, the wildlife trip was amazing and we got to see lots of whales and other wildlife. The weather was beautiful and we spent a good few hours chilling out on the island seeing the quokkas!

The Rottnest Island tour was our favorite activity in Perth. The fast boat ride around the island was fascinating full of fauna and lovely scenery. We enjoyed the beach, and loved seeing the quokkas on our walk back to the ferry.

This tour was amazing! After a ferry ride from Fremantle down the Swan river and across the ocean to Rottsnest Island, we were loaded onto the Speed boat. Had fun riding the waves. Saw surfing dolpins, sting rays, fighting seals, and other wild life. After all the sight seeing and a wild ride on the waves we returned to Thomson Bay and still had time for lunch or walk during which I went to the beach and observed the local birds and those little marsupials, quarka?? Rotts? anyways, they were really cute and they are not afraid of humans so please keep your distance to protect them. Would recommend this to anyone who has time for a full day trip while in Perth. This island also looks like a great place to spend a week or so for a great beach vacation with children. Would suggest taking this tour while there as well.

Had a really lovely day trip to Rottnest Island. The 90 minute high speed jet boat wildlife cruise around the island was both informative and thrilling. Absolutely fantastic. The lunch was adequate - A buffet. So, one could eat as much as one fancied and the choice was pretty extensive. After lunch, I had time to stroll around the main settlement area and walked to the nearby lighthouse, where there were some fantastic views back towards Perth. Sadly, I only saw one Quokka but I did see some Galahs.

Loved Rottnest and the wildlife cruise, we needed more time and will definitely go back. We were very disappointed in the meal, it was buffet style with limited dishes that were not refilled. Definitely regret doing the meal but loved Rottnest :

Wonderful tour.
Review by: Lorraine K, February 2017
I really enjoyed my day trip to Rottnest Island. However, I would skip the Wildlife Cruise as I had expected to see more wildlife it wasn't the time of year for whale watching or spotting dolphins. Also, because we were on a speedboat it got very cold and I did not anticipate that. I would have preferred doing the bike tour instead. I did the free guided tour of Rottnest and was amazed by what I learned and the Aboriginal history._br/_ This island is amazing and so worth it to see the Quokkas.

Really great tour and experience! Our best regards to our skipper and our guide this day on wildlife cruise! They are professionals and they were very friendly to us!!! Thank you!

Excellent day out, little swell on the crossing and wildlife cruise, but weather was sunny and very hot, after lunch hired a couple of bikes to cycle round Island. _br/_ Only point to add is that you need to queue at Quay B at the Rottnest ferry ticket office to exchange voucher for your tickets for day trip, this was missing from instructions issued by Viator
