    Disappointing not as described

    The first warning this was a very basic tour was the lockup mini van. The windows were covered with stick on baggy looking mesh shades. The first stop Clifton lake was closed for renovations. The company should have been aware as it had been shut since July 13. We weren’t given any history or background d on our tour unlike other companies.. we originally wanted to go to the Nigilgi Caves but were told it wasn’t possible only to find out the last stop at the Canal Rocks was 4.7km from these caves and we would have had plenty of time to see them. When I asked the guide/driver he said he’d never heard of them. We had plenty of time to visit in our own as the Laje Clifton was a no go and the people on tour didn’t want to stay long at Canal Rocks.. I thought at the chocolate factory or lavender tea house we get a bit of dialogue about or see the making of it’s just a stop and shop. Like I said it’s just a driver . We really were hoping they would deliver but fell very short. The road house stops are just toilet stops not for food. The only real place to eat is Busselton Jetty. We only booked this company as the other company we have done tours with and enjoyed we’re booked out.

    Response from the operator: You initially booked the cave tour, we rejected your booking due to lack of number. Then, not long after, you booked the chocolate factory tour, we confirmed your booking. You should not have booked this tour if you don’t like the itinerary, certainly not only because the tour run by other tour operator was sold out. You can do a self-drive or hire a car with driver, it may cost more, but you will be satisfied, I hope. You didn't want this itinerary in the first place, why go on and ruin our product like this? You hardly participate any of the activities, didn't even get off the bus to see the canal rock which is a highlight of this tour. We don't appreciate your review, cannot agree with your logic either. Regarding the food, we spend at least 2 hours and 15 minutes on the Jetty, didn't you eat anything? It’s up to you if you want to bring some snacks, you can also buy some food at the chocolate factory or cape lavender even the petrol station when your driver topped up fuel tank. You can eat anytime, all meals are at your own expense, so not sure why mention food. We arrived back in Perth before 7:30pm, you would have plenty of time to enjoy your dinner? You paid for the chocolate factory tour, then you don't ask to go to the cave. Regarding the Lake Cliffton, yes, it's closed due to safety concerns, no, we didn't get a notice. Lake Cliffton is only scheduled for 20 minutes, the cave visiting requires 90 minutes, how it’s possible? We don’t think your review will help anyone, but one good point is made that you don’t seek alternatives from what you truly want, otherwise, you will end up to be very disappointed like this, this is your own fault. We have nothing to apologize for. All other customer’s were very happy with this tour and showed their appreciate to the Jon (driver tour guide).

    Wonderful trip to Margaret River

    Our tour guide, Jon, was excellent. Safe driver, very open to share information to enhance our trip. He constantly checks in on our safety and wellbeing. The places we visited were stunning too, especially under the perfect weather.

    Margaret River - don't miss it.

    It is a long day, but we'll worth it. Lots of stops along the way. The Margaret River area is such a different landscape. Our driver Jon gave a great commentary. We were a small group, but that made it better.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our...

    We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and were impressed with our tour guide Robert's professionalism. We would like to thank him for his kindness in helping my mother with her leg pain while getting on and off the bus. We will definitely consider taking another tour with use when we visit Perth again. 10/10

    1 Day Margaret River Busselton Jetty Sightseeing Tour from Perth: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Perth.

    How much does 1 Day Margaret River Busselton Jetty Sightseeing Tour from Perth cost?

    +

    Prices start at $147 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Perth usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 1 Day Margaret River Busselton Jetty Sightseeing Tour from Perth take?

    +

    Plan for about 12 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Perth is not rushed.

    Is 1 Day Margaret River Busselton Jetty Sightseeing Tour from Perth worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Perth, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 1 Day Margaret River Busselton Jetty Sightseeing Tour from Perth?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is 1 Day Margaret River Busselton Jetty Sightseeing Tour from Perth suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 1 Day Margaret River Busselton Jetty Sightseeing Tour from Perth?

    +

    Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Perth can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Perth and add a light layer if any part of the 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 1 Day Margaret River Busselton Jetty Sightseeing Tour from Perth start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Perth within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Perth?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Perth experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Optus Stadium Tour, Discover Perth Walking Tour: History, Art, Local Insights + More!, Pinnacles Desert Sunset Dinner and Stargazing Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Perth?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Perth?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 1 Day Margaret River Busselton Jetty Sightseeing Tour from Perth?

    Included: Busselton Jetty Train return ticket; In-vehicle air conditioning; PERTH CENTRAL HOTEL PICKUP/DROPOFF; and Bottle drinking water.

    +

    What languages is 1 Day Margaret River Busselton Jetty Sightseeing Tour from Perth offered in?

    +

    Is 1 Day Margaret River Busselton Jetty Sightseeing Tour from Perth wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
