The trip was nice overall however there are ALOT OF FLIES and we had to buy our own face nets only to find out that when we got back to the bus they had some and didn’t say anything to anyone because they only had a few. So essentially the people that didn’t buy them got them for free which was disappointing, also there were no bathrooms for a good 2-3 hours whilst you’re at the desert eating, watching the sunset and star gazing which I think again is disappointing especially if you have kids. The drivers were nice and very friendly.

The trip was astounding made more so by our guide Skip , both amusing and informative. Sand boarding was a superb experience Hampered by a cloudy night but again Skips humour and night sky knowledge saw us through A long day but worth it

Lying down and look up to see the whole sky full of stars. This is after viewing the beautiful sunset in front of the Pinnacle Desert. The tour also provided telescope that we can view Jupiter with 3 of its moons. We had a nice BBQ dinner just before sunset provided as part of the tour. At the end of the tour, we had a safe ride back to Perth City in the dark by our experience and alert driver, Sam who is also our guide.

We were not sure exactly what we were in for before jumping on the bus and heading a couple of hours from Perth. It was immediately clear that we were in good hands with both Erin and Summer engaging the whole group from the moment we took our seats on the bus. Erin was a wealth of knowledge regarding local landmarks and as we travelled to the pinnacles she regaled us with interesting anecdotes along the way. For those that don’t know (and yes we were those people) the Pinnacles are an amazing geological phenomenon that is still steeped in mystery as to how they formed. The whole group were catered for excellently with clear instructions on where to walk safely and what to look for. After a delightful picnic meal, the darkening sky took our attention. Again Erin took us on a journey stepping into dreaming stories and pointing out celestial bodies of interest. The whole evening was awe inspiring! Even the packing up was swiftly catered for with the girls having us ready for the return trip in no time. Summer drove us home with quiet competency and great skill. We could not have hoped for a better pair of guides for our trip. Well done Autopia tours!
