This is a Private tour for you or your group only. The highlight of this tour for many is the beautiful natural feature of Wave Rock. The Wheatbelt is a massive agricultural region extending from Geraldton (about 400km north of Perth) to Esperance (around 800km southeast of Perth). This full day private tour includes heritage towns and many natural attractions all located in the central Wheatbelt Region directly east of Perth. I offer a lot of flexibility in this tour. If you prefer to stay a little longer at the expense of another location thats totally fine. The day can offer many things to different people. There are a lot of changes in landscape simply because we cover a lot of ground in approximately 10 – 12 hours. It’s a visual feast for photographers and random stops are welcome!

Wave Rock & Beyond
What a brilliant full day. I had the most fantastic trip with Peter. Not only does he know the history and geography of the area so well he spent time understanding my expectations for the visit. We stopped at lots of interesting locations for me to take photographs, walked all over Wave Rock and visited the many sites listed in the itinerary. He is a fun chap to be with and made the day truly memorable. Thanks Copey.
Response from the operator: Cheers Copey 👍👍👍

A wonderful day tour with Peter
We had a wonderful day tour to Wave Rock with Peter, he is very knowledgeable, we learned a lot about Wave Rock, Perth and West Australia, Peter is an extremely nice person who is always ready to help others, his designer background make him good at taking lovely photos, I highly recommend him to everyone who would like to have a memorable trip
Response from the operator: Thanks so much Tracy for your kindness. Safe travels & hope to see you all in Shanghai one day....

Long Drive with Great Views
Be prepared for a long day in a vehicle with a fantastic payoff when you arrive at the wave rock. There is much to see and learn about this part of Australia during the drive and Peter, our guide, provided a lot of historical tidbits and interesting context wrapped up in funny anecdotes and past experiences. It was worth the drive and the Wave Rock walk was awesome.

FANTASTIC
Thank you Peter for a wonderful day visiting Wave Rock we saw everything we wanted to see and much more thanks to your extensive knowledge of the area and interesting insight. Once again thank you. Wendy & Greg
Response from the operator: Thanks guys it was a pleasure. Safe travels & all the best. Peter

Simply the BEST!
We booked a 1 day trip with Peter to Wave Rock- and what a fantastic decision that was! It is not just the destination but the journey that was memorable. Peter will hunt for the wild flowers to show us (bear in mind we are 2 weeks early and they are only starting to show), explain about the shrubs native to Western Australia and the uses, spell put the names for us (think Balga, Galah, Lechenaultia, etc). He has sharp eyes! He was considerate and was hospitable - one can really sense his passion . At Wave Rock, we had a leisurely walk around the area, not just the 50 metre rock that most people come to see, but behind and above it. He would explain about the water catchment, the grounds and why the soil color is different, he is truly knowledgeable about flora, fauna, history , construction & general knowledge; yet unassuming and calm. We had such a lovely day snd went away with nuggets of info. We just had another trip with another company; and the experience is the total opposite. I will not say more except, go with Peter from Perths Tiny Tours!
Response from the operator: Thanks so much both of you for this beautiful, generous and kind review. It was a pleasure to take you "out bush" for the day and show you a few things. Safe travels & hope to see you again in the future.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
The Big Wave Rock Private Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Perth.
How much does The Big Wave Rock Private Day Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $467 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 Big Wave Rock Private Day Tour take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 Big Wave Rock Private Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 21 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 The Big Wave Rock Private Day Tour?
+
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 Big Wave Rock Private Day Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book The Big Wave Rock Private Day Tour?
+
Around 7 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does The Big Wave Rock Private Day Tour 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 Big Wave Rock Private Day Tour?
+
Included: A very comfortable air conditioned car with a broad range of "roadtrip" music; Bottled water; Lots of photo options - and I take photos of/for you as well!; Umbrellas provided if wet weather is expected; and A local, experienced, fun guide to keep you amused on the longer stretches. Not included: Lunch can be "On The Road" Cheap & Cheerful sandwiches means you see more; and Hats & sunscreen are required in Summer. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does The Big Wave Rock Private Day Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 122 listed pickup locations in and around Perth. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is The Big Wave Rock Private Day Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

+
