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.

We went on a tour and our guide was Gabby and she was exceptionally helpful and had a lot of fun facts for me and the other participants. The scuba diving was absolutely beautiful and the services were amazing!!! Highly recommend!

The kids wanted to go on a glass bottom boat and boy are we glad we booked with this company. We did the 1 hour tour as we weren't sure how long we could keep the kids interested, luckily our guide Caitlin was brilliant! Not only was she excellent keeping everyone's attention, her knowledge of the area, coral and sea life was next level.
I definitely recommend looking them up when up visiting Exmouth.

We went on the four hour trip. The two guides were amazing - we got an interesting commentary throughout. (Much better than the snorkelling trip by a different glass bottomed boat company in Coral Bay which had very little information provided.) Recommend highly.

Fabulous experience snorkeling and viewing coral reef with two competent female crew members. Both knowledgeable and experienced marine biologists who provided great insights of the reef as well as the two local sites we visited. Tash pointed out turtles swimming near the Mildura wreck which was a bonus and Caitlin pointed out spectacular coral formations. All in all a great experience exploring the magnificent Ningaloo Reef.

Totally exceeded expectations, thank you for an amazing half day. Boat and viewing glass panels clean and seating accessible for everybody to get a good chance to see below. Staff were knowledgeable and passionate and I could see they genuinely wanted to do the little things to make people’s trip one to remember. Commentary was interesting and enjoyable to listen to. Willingness to offer and provide assistance to my young children outstanding and comforting to see they have an understanding of young children’s needs. Perfect way to spend a half day while in Exmouth. Totally recommend.

We had a fantastic time with NGBB. The tour was great fun, informative and brilliant. Caitlin was incredibly knowledgeable and we learnt a lot in such a fun way. Danni's snorkelling assistance was brilliant. We saw turtles and rays and amazing coral.
Would highly recommend!!!

Our cruise ship Regatta will be in Exmouth on 8 January 2018, and I like to make a reservation for 2 adults for that day. Can you help me?

Exmouth, Australia1 contribution
Hello;
Thank you for your question - it is a FAQ from the cruise ship patrons.
While we certainly have glass bottom boat tours operating on the cruise ship day all bookings are handled by the cruise ships’ onboard travel agency.
We kindly advise to book early as despite multiple departures space is very limited.
Good luck and looking forward to host you onboard!
Kind Regards,

Hello Vicky;
During Christmas/New Year period we run the Coral Viewing, Snorkelling, and Coastal Explorer tour. As the sea breezes come early in the summer we only run one tour per day, everyday.
Take Care, safe travels and hope to host you onboard!

We hope to host you onboard next month and safe travels from Canada!
