My husband and I enjoyed a fun and fascinating tour of the Pinnacles with Peter yesterday. We thought our plans would have to be cancelled when our cruise ship was delayed a day out of Geraldton. Peter was so gracious and accommodating to meet us early morning on a Sunday instead so that we could fit the tour in during our shortened stay. The tour started with an informative drive around Fremantle which is a very pretty town. We then proceeded through Perth and up to the Pinnacles with Peter explaining a lot about the flora and the fauna of the area. Being November, the "Christmas trees" were in bloom so it was a very nice ride. The car was extremely comfortable and clean. When we got to the Pinnacles, it was an experience not only observing the geology but also using one's imagination (guided by the very knowledgeable Peter) of what all the rock shapes looked like. Imagine the "art of cloud watching" turned into the "art of rock watching." After Pinnacles, Peter took us to the Lobster Shack for lunch. It was delicious! We had lobster chowder, calamari (squid) rings and abalone that were all excellent, all the while enjoying the lunch overlooking the sea and the lobster boats moored in the bay. We heartily recommend a trip to the Pinnacles with Peter and Perths Tiny Tours. You will not be disappointed!

Magical Day - Traveling North from Perth to the Pinnacles with stops along the way at King Neptune Sculpture andTwo Rocks Beach, Lancelin and Cervantes for Lunch. This was our first trip to Perth so we chose to do two trips with Peter - North and South. I chose the Pinnacles because of the trip along the coast and into the red desert with the petrified forest. We stopped along the way to see some of the Australian Fauna and the Lake Thetis Stromatolites - one of the oldest living organisms on earth. We were lucky to see a blue tongued lizard along the side of the walkway here. The Pinnacles - Amazing - Incredible - Wonderful - you must visit the centre before you visit the actual area where the Pinnacles so you can get an idea of the history of the area and how the pinnacles have been formed 25 - 30Ths years ago. Peter was great at pointing out some of the names the pinnacles had been given by travellers to the area and kindly took pictures for us with the pinnacles and provided fly protection when we asked for it. The flies weren't that bad really but why not makes for a great photo and a fuss free experience. Peter was a fabulous guide for the day - was able to impart heaps of interesting information, answered questions and obliged taking photos of the obligatory animal road signs on the road when it was safe to do so. If you are looking to do a small group tour - Peter is your man - relaxed fun day excellent safe driver arrived on time and dropped us off at the door of our hotel after.

Peter went above and beyond for my wife and I. We ended up doing two tours with him. He completely customized both tours for what we were looking to do. First tour we did was the Pinnacles day tour. Was originally scheduled for a different day but due to possible weather Peter reached out about doing it a day earlier. Turned out to be the best move. Had we done it on the day it was originally scheduled we would have been stuck in the rain!! Also on the Pinnacles tour Peter organized a coast route going out from Perth and a inner country route going back to Perth. Gave my wife and I a chance to get two different perspectives of the country. Also that night he took us around to a few other spots in the city to see different perspectives with the city lights on. Also went to couple view points to get a really good view of the city at night. The second tour we did was the Caversham wildlife park plus tour. This was an awesome tour to see some of the local animals native to the west side of Australia and country of Australia. Even had the chance to hold a koala, feed some Kangaroos, and see a kookaburra up close among many others. The part of being able to hold a koala was a bucket list thing for my wife. :) after spending time at the wildlife park we went and visited some other local spots and towns close to Perth. The Gin tasting at GinGinGin was amazing. Highly recommend doing that! Going to Fremantle was fun as well. In between though we went to an amazing bakery and got some food for lunch that was hard to beat!! All in all the two days were amazing and I would highly recommend Peter to anyone. He was very personable and friendly. His knowledge and stories were great to listen to.

My sister and I had an absolutely brilliant day exploring the Pinnacles with Peter as our guide! He was incredibly informative, engaging and thoughtful, showing us numerous sights on the way to the Pinnacles and back. We really couldn’t recommend Tiny Tours enough after such a great time! Thank you again!
