Worst tour ever
Don’t do this tour it’s the biggest rip off. Paid over $600 for someone to drive us to the jetty and back. The whole thing was poorly organised. The dolphin experience was a joke, you don’t see any dolphins as you don’t go near the water. Hire yourself a really nice car and drive yourself.
Response from the operator: Hello Rachelle - Sorry to note your review. We have discussed your review with the coach captain who gave you 3 a private tour throughout. Before tour we had informed you that you are only 3 people on tour, and even thought our minimum numbers are not met with, so as to not spoil your day we continued with the tour.Sadly with wild animals we cannot gaurantee sightings all the time, which is also clearly mentioned on our tour information.He commented throughout the day to you all, and he clearly remembers you were happy at end of day. You booked the tour, after reading all information & received exactly what is on brochure and website & more, so your comments are really surprising.Anyway we wish you have a great day

Guide Graham had very good knowledge of the area. I was worried about the extra time I had since I was the only one for this tour while he send the other tourists to Margaret river. He provide me much assurance by giving me information and helped me via a phone call when I needed help. Lots of local knowledge from the guide.
Response from the operator: Gday Daphne, Thanks a lot for your lovely comments. Glad to know you had a great time with Graham, and enjoyed Busselton. If we can assist in any manner to you or friends do allow us an opportunity to provide our services to them Have a great day

Full-Day Busselton Jetty, Train Ride & Dophin Discovery: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Perth.
How much does Full-Day Busselton Jetty, Train Ride & Dophin Discovery cost?
+
Prices start at $207 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 Full-Day Busselton Jetty, Train Ride & Dophin Discovery take?
+
Plan for about 11 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 Full-Day Busselton Jetty, Train Ride & Dophin Discovery worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Perth, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Busselton Jetty, Train Ride & Dophin Discovery?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Full-Day Busselton Jetty, Train Ride & Dophin Discovery suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Busselton Jetty, Train Ride & Dophin Discovery?
+
Around 1 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 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Busselton Jetty, Train Ride & Dophin Discovery 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 Full-Day Busselton Jetty, Train Ride & Dophin Discovery?
+
Included: Hotel pickup and drop-off (selected CBD hotels only); Bottled water; National Park fees; GST (Goods and Services Tax); and All taxes, fees and handling charges. Not included: Food and drinks, unless specified; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Full-Day Busselton Jetty, Train Ride & Dophin Discovery include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 71 listed pickup locations in and around Perth. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Full-Day Busselton Jetty, Train Ride & Dophin Discovery offered in?
+
