The trip is pretty far in distance but I personally think it is worth going. My tour guide is very good. Patient, friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed a lot at Wave Rock because we have sufficient time to explore the scenic. Thanks!

We were picked up at the stated time and made our way to a central pick up point to start our journey with the allotted bus, complete with on board loo, and our driver Gordon. We started off and made our way to the very pretty town of York. After a short comfort stop we had time to purchase a coffee and breakfast from a main street bakery. Lovely. Then it was onward through the vast expanse of the Wheat belts to Corrigin for another comfort stop. Just on the edge of the town was a cemetery dedicated to the dogs from the area. Through Hyden and onward to our first stop at Hippos Yawn for a photo opportunity. Afterwards we arrived at Wave Rock resort for a true 'Aussie lunch'. We did have a small amount of time to see the eclectic collections of lace, model soldiers, wildlife park and more. Then it was on to Mulkas Cave to see the cave hand prints and hear the story of Mulka. Our final stop was Wave Rock. Wow. Not to be missed. Fantastic. Unfortunately, due to getting on in years, we couldn't climb to the top, but the view from the bottom did just as well for us. All in all, it is a very long way in a day (approx 750 km/ 450mile but very well worth it. Would I do it again - Yes certainly.

Although the travel time is a bit long, but the scene of the wave rock is marvelous. It worths the time spent.

Long journey but the driver shared many interesting stories with us. York was smaller than expected. The Wave Rock was worth the visit, larger and higher than expected. We didn’t know it was claimable and enjoyed the climb. Lunch was a disappointment, basic, no guidance on serving arrangements.

This was a very long trip and lucky that we did not consider driving there ourselves. The tour was well organised with toilet stops every 2 hours. Glen was our driver/guide for this tour. Glen was great in providing us with great commentary. On our way back, it was very thoughtful of Glen to stop by the Road house so that we could get some food for "dinner". By the time we got back to the city, it was close to 8:30pm.
