Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Perth, Perth, Greater Perth, Western Australia

Join us on tour for a day exploring some of the West Coast’s most stunning natural regions. Located only a short drive from Perth, we’ll take you into Yanchep National Park first.

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Lancelin Sand Dunes, 13 Whitfield St Gingin Road, 102, Lancelin, Western Australia 6044 Australia

After 1.5 hours from Perth, we stop to stretch our legs and take in the views from Lancelin lookout, home to the largest network of sand dunes in Western Australia. These gigantic snow-white dunes are a stark contrast to the glistening turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean in the distance.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Nilgen Lookout, Indian Ocean Drive About 22 kms north of Lancelin, Lancelin, Western Australia 6044 Australia

Shake the sand out of your shoes, before we travel on to the Nilgen Nature Reserve. In a region abundant with flora and fauna, we’ll wander through a kaleidoscopic of wildflowers, including the likes of banksias, bottlebrush, heath, grass trees, and kangaroo paws; all bursting with life, when in season.

Duration: 45 minutes

Stop At: Hangover Bay, Indian Ocean Dr Nambung National Park, Coral Coast Region, Cervantes, Western Australia 6511 Australia

If the flowers are in hiding, we’ll instead head over to Hangover Bay, where you can dip your toes in the crystal-clear waters or spot the likes of bottlenose dolphins and sea lions.


Duration: 45 minutes

Stop At: Nambung National Park, 200 Km North of Perth Midwest Region, Cervantes, Western Australia 6511 Australia

With our lungs full of fresh sea air, it’s time to journey on to the Nambung National Park to witness the remarkable Pinnacles desert at sunset. Made up of shells, the Pinnacles date back millions of years to a time when the land was beneath the sea. Best explored at dusk when the crowds evaporate and the thousands of limestone pillars rise eerily out of the desert; watch the colours change over the rocks, creating a lunar-like atmosphere.

Duration: 45 minutes

Stop At: The Pinnacles, Pinnacles Drive Nambung National Park, Cervantes, Western Australia 6511 Australia

Enjoy a Picnic dinner accompanied by a glass of local product wine (all included), while we settle in for a spectacular light show of natural wonder, beneath the sky. As the darkness sets, it’s time to marvel at the other-worldly beauty of the stars and planets, swirling high above. Listen to the ancient stories of the Aboriginal Dreamtime and gaze light-years away.

Duration: 2 hours

On the way home to Perth, we will stop and take in the wonders of the night sky.

Tour was as described however to me was not worth paying for the tour guide and tour component. I’ve been on a lot of similar tours across the world and have never had a tour guide that doesn’t seem interested in doing anything other than the bare minimum. Tour stops were fine but no real explanations provided. Tour guide hardly interacted with group unless necessary. If you just want the trip to the pinnacles suggest hitting a car or lower your expectations of the tour itself.

What a great trip and experience. Summer, our tour guide and driver was fabulous. Summer was very knowledgable on the history/culture of the area and gave a great talk on the stars and planets which are spectacular at night at the Pinnacles, never seen the Milky Way so clear.! Would not recommend driving out there at night solo with no lights and kangaroos roaming, being on a tour bus was best way for safety. Perfectly organised and a great tour. Thank you Summer, you are the best. Love from the Welshies 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

We booked the ½ day Pinnacles Stargazing Tour with Wildlife Tours Australia (same company as Autopia but price was less- they merged during pandemic). We only wanted the half day tour which left midday, and we stopped along the way in Lancelin (very small town) to the lookout and stretch our legs, Hangover Bay (lovely looking beach) and Nilgen lookout. The bus was full with about 25 people (my husband felt his legs were cramped as he was very tall but I was fine) We then headed to Nambung National Park to see the Pinnacles. Wow - these limestone structures for as far as the eye can see. Somewhat eerie but beautiful. Our tour was only to walk around - there is a path (there is a car road but we did not drive) so everyone disbursed. It was windy so with sand blowing we tried to focus on having the wind at our backs, then headed to the deck to watch sunset. Our tour guide Denny was great. Meanwhile he was setting up the picnic dinner for us - very upscale picnic with cheese and crackers, strawberries, then nice salads and meat choices. He had Prosecco and juice (no water, so best to bring your own). Once it was dark, he gave us a stargazing tour - wow, wow and wow. It was a clear night and there were so many stars. It is pitch black so you could really see the stars. We brought flashlights (although cell phones do have that capability). We saw the Southern Cross, Jupiter, the Milky Way and so many more.

My wife and I started the tour with a slight hiccup, a couple who hadn't read the emails properly made us start late, but Erin and Summer, our tour advisors, took it in their stride. Erin started the tour with great information about Perth and continued it for most of the journey to the Pinnacles. On arrival, she gave us a great explanation for the Pinnacles and later really good information on the night sky and then showed us Jupiter through her telescope. The camaraderie shown by Erin and Summer to all of us on the tour was excellent, and the evening meal they organised was well laid out and enjoyable. I think I can say that all of us appreciated the care they took in looking after us. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone interested in a good day out from Perth, definitely 5 stars....
