Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Popped in to ask for some information and was assisted by an extremely pleasant and helpful young Lady. She gave us all the information we needed and a few suggestions as well which were very helpful. She arranged bookings for us and ensured that we were understood everything about the tour before we left. A HUGE thank you to Shine for her assistance and professionalism all done in a cheerful and happy manner.

Good centre and staffed by very sensible mature ladies.
Just watch out - if you arrive after 12 noon on a Saturday ... It is closed until 9am Monday !

It is a DIY weekend ... and much valuable time wasted.

We've come to the centre after a long drive, and had to wait almost 30 minutes until someone reffered to help us - a few minutes before closing time.
The 2nd worker was helping other couple more then an hour, selling them tours etc.
She also guided a new emploee while people were waiting for service.
We have not got all the needed information , was a dissapointing service.

Very disappointing to stand there for for 20 minutes waiting for service. A young girl came out from the office and said she would get someone to help us as there were 5 groups waiting. We waited another 10 minutes and left. The couple in front of us were booking a camel ride. They were still booking a camel ride when we left. 30 minutes to book a camel ride? We googled souvenir shop and got our coolers for $5 each saving $9 a cooler.

Great customer service by a young lady that was very informative. Lots of tour ideas and they booked us to tour the Willi Creek Pearl farm, which was lovely to visit. Well worth going to, as it will definitely give you a better idea of what to do and see in Broome

We came here with a simple question. What is there to do in Broome. Centre worker couldn't have been more apathetic. We asked about the bird park, we'd heard of and we're regaled with details of the death of the owner, bird park closed down. No information about tours around Broome. Basically - it's boring, go to Cable Beach and have a liquid lunch! So we did!

Hi Judith. Thank you for taking the time to review the Broome Visitor Centre. Broome used to have an amazing bird park out at 12 Mile, and yes, it did close down due to the death of the owner who was involved in tourism for many years. Our centre is filled with brochures to browse through and our experienced staff are available at the counter to assist you to book tours in Broome. Sometimes, it does depend on the time of day you come into the centre as to what tours are available at short notice. November is tropical season in Broome, so some operators have finished up for the season. There are still lots of things to do and many tours operational at this time. We recommend during low season travellers and visitors should come into the visitor centre early to see what is on over the next few days (as some tours do not run daily). We hope you enjoyed your lunch at Cable Beach and had a nice time in Broome.

We travel quite a bit and visited the centre to ask about local attractions which included the crocodile park. The lady at the centre told us it "was ****" and don't waste our time. We are travelling with friends from the East and decided to go anyway. We found the park very interesting and our guide Wade was super informative with a great sense of humour. As we make a visitor's centre our first stop in new places we were really taken aback by the attitude and lack of interest here. Every single centre we have been to have been so informative and helpful. Very disappointed by this visitor's centre to say the least.
