Great day on Rottnest
Great day.very easy with complimentary shuttle bus pick up from easy to find pick up point in city.If last tour like us it also includes return shuttle to Perth which is so convenient. Our cray dog lunch was excellent and our Simmos icecream huge and delicious. We saw few Quokkas mainly around the cafe and old settlement buildings. Hop on off bus a little overcrowded we stayed on for the complete loop which proved best choice. Nice day all up.
Response from the operator: Hi nanamarie2015, Thank you for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear you had a great day on Rottnest and enjoyed the convenience of the shuttle bus, delicious lunch, and ice cream. It's also wonderful that you had the chance to see some quokkas! We appreciate your feedback on the hop-on-hop-off bus and will take it into account for future improvements. We hope to welcome you back soon for another fantastic experience! Thanks, from the team at Rottnest Fast Ferries.

The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Perth.
How much does The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package cost?
+
Prices start at $114 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 The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package take?
+
Plan for about 7.5 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 The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Perth, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package?
+
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 The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package?
+
Around 0 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 7.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package 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 The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package?
+
Included: Lunch; anding and/or facility fees; Bicycle use; Snacks; and Tea and coffee. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 15 listed pickup locations in and around Perth. Be ready about 120 minutes before the start time.
What languages is The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Not suitable for infants. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to The Best of Rotto – The Local Experience Package if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
