About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Nicole S0 contributionsRottnest TourIt was a great tour, the guides were knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. I learnt a lot about Rottnest’s history. I would recommend this tour. Lunch was delicious tooWritten 28 November 2024
- 910aarthig0 contributionsMeh…For the price the overall experience was average but justified to make up for the fuel given it’s an 800km journey to and fro. Lunch ended being sandwiches as they accidentally gave away our lunch to another tour group so this should have been managed better if charging so much especially when we were all so hungry and the timing was already delayed. Beck our guide was lovely and the 3 stars is just for herWritten 21 November 2024
- 535brigittea0 contributionsFabulous tour of Rottnest with amazing tour guide KevinFabulous tour of ‘Rotto’, with an amazing tour guide ‘Kevin’. He made it so interesting and informative.

- Katherine O0 contributionsGreat Day Out!A fantastic trip out to the pinnacles along with a bit of sand boarding! Absolutly beautiful scenery and some good commentary from our guide! A beautiful bbq followed by star gazing. A great way to meet people when travelling solo and a wide variety of people to chat to. A wonderful day out.Written 18 September 2024
- larrymcchu0 contributionsEnjoyable stargazing experienceWe were lucky to have Jonathan as our tour guide. He is a professional astronomer (and possibly physicist as well), and while on our way he gave the tour participants a very good overview about stars and astrophysics. He also gave vivid descriptions about the spots that we visited during the daytime. The most enjoyable part was the stargazing at the Pinnacles at night. It was not the best time of the month to gaze at the stars (as the moon was quite bright), but we did see a lot of stars which was almost mission impossible in cities. The experience was more enjoyable still with Jonathan's guide on which stars / constellations were which. Thanks Jonathan for bringing us the wonderful experience! Also thanks to Charlene the driver in taking us to the Pinnacles and safely back to Perth!Written 15 September 2024

A 12 hour day in a 4WD air conditioned bus.
The blurb states that they cater for morning and afternoon tea and lunch. Well the lunch was a single course of delicious fish but the teas were some shop bought fruit cake and sliced fruit and dry biscuits with the afternoon tea being the last dregs of the morning leftovers; poor.
There are 2 stops in local communities. 1 stop too many IMO. An hour spent in each one. This seemed to take priority over the chance to get to a beach which we were given a drive by of. It also seemed to take priority over lunch which felt rushed. There was also a schoolchild feel to the request to all sit at long inside tables.
The pearl factory was fascinating and well worth the visit. This also had a pool but we had no time or opportunity to stay there instead of going to the second community and a fish tank area.
The whole trip did however become chaotic and over long with driving back and forth to commute 3 passengers who were flying back to Broome.
Poor planning and very annoying when the trip was already into its 9th hour.
A long day that became a bore.

Quick and easy to book, you will be picked up from your hotel or hostel. Then picked up a lot of other people from their hotel. Truck is comfortable. Driver talks on the intercom with passengers. Not much is told about the environment, culture and history, so that is a bit of a shame. Every now and then we took a bathroom break and a drink break, during which we visited 2 villages (communities). The villages were completely silent, no interaction with the locals. You were allowed to take a photo of the pearl church. That was quite boring. I also saw a few tanks of fish somewhere and heard a short story about what it was like there in the past. Also visited a pearl farm at the end, where you got a clear picture of what it was like. Had a nice lunch. Swimming in the sea was not recommended, especially with the crocs. The passenger list consisted mainly of 60+. Price quality: 6/10. This trip is ideal for the elderly. The return journey could vary: fly back or take the truck again. Flying costs extra.
I personally thought it was a shame that you saw so little and that there was so little interaction with the locals. It mostly felt like entertaining tourists and selling souvenirs.

Very interesting and educational tour. The mission at Beagle Bay was particularly enlightening . The visit to the hatchery near Cape Leveque was brightened by the local guide Zak with his amusing commentary . We were shepherded all the way by our very capable and knowledgeable guide Maz who was attentive to our every need.

Australian Pinnacle Tours trip to Dampier Peninsula, Aboriginal Communities, Sea Safari and flight was a very full day. The stop off at Beagle Bay Church was very interesting. The trophy's shell hatchery stop off did not provide a lot of information and was a bit disappointing. The Cygnet Bay pearl farm was fascinating and the lunch provided delicious. The 2 hour sea Safari was exhilarating! It was lovely to fly back to Broome, which cut down on time, as the day started very early.
Angelica was a fantastic driver and guide for the day. She is passionate about the Kimberley and has a vast knowledge of history and issues affecting the area

To start the bus was 40 minutes late to pick us up. It would be courteous for someone from Pinnacle to message us to warn of the delay.
The driver was new to Broome and he got several names and facts wrong along the way.
The morning tea was dreadful, packet cakes from Woolworths not even put on plates!
The urn broke and no attempt to find another hot water source on Lombardina was made by the driver.
We missed half the fish tour due to our late arrival.
Cygnet bay lunch and the pearl farm tour was good. It was however very busy in Cygnet bay which took away from the beauty of the place.

We did the Dampier Peninsular trip with Pinnacle Tours our guide Brenda and driver Mark were excellent. Brenda’s knowledge of the area and history was brilliant and I took notes so I could write a journal of our whole trip. We visited the Cygnet Pearl farm and I was lucky enough to harvest a lustrous round pearl. Very exciting. The views were stunning and we also visited two aboriginal communities which impressed us, a great community spirit. The vehicle was comfortable. We highly recommend this trip. Vicki Smith

Overall an interesting tour. I found the pearl farm at Cygnet bay particularly interesting. Unfortunately the trip was somwhat marred by the driver/guide talking about the injustices done to the aboriginal people. Sure, no denies that they were sometimes treated appallingly, but if you are going to go on a rant to a captive audience make sure you are accurate. I did not pay good money to be lectured to with this inaccurate commentary. Stick to the facts driver , not just your opinion. Case in point, Aboriginals were not classed as fauna as claimed . This is an urban myth that can easily be checked with a simple online search. Yet it was stated it as fact to the group which included overseas visitors who will go away actually believing this to be true. I find that offensive. I could argue other points of the narrative, but will just leave it by saying, just check your facts before inflicting your views on us poor tourists. Other than this I found the overall experience worthwhile and very interesting.

We thoroughly enjoyed our day trip from Broome to Cape Leveque and return. Dave our driver and guide from the day was excellent, ensuring that we were briefed about the areas and aboriginal communities that we drove through. The bus was super comfortable, considering that at least 90 kms of the journey was on a corrugated gravel road. This was a drive we were reluctant to tackle ourselves due to distance and the rough terrain. It is a very long 12 hour day, but plenty of time to chill out on the bus. We loved the beach at Cape Leveque and the opportunity to enjoy a swim there. The included lunch at Cygnet Bay pearl farm delicious, and learnt a lot about pearl farming on the tour there.Some people took the option to fly back to Broome from Cape Leveque. We were happy to do the return drive on the bus.
Totally recommend this day tour with Adams.

We had a very enjoyable day travelling to Cape Leveque by a 4X4 truck and home the horizonal falls seaplane. We were given plenty of time at the falls and visited them twice via jetboat. we also flew over them on our return journey by seaplane. It was a pity that the return journey there was a lot of smoke from a bushfire which spoilt the view from the plane.
