Rottnest by bike - Very organised tour booking, Rottnest island is a must when visiting Perth.. make sure you take your swimmers, sunscreen plenty of water if riding around the island in the hotter months. Riding around the island is very achievable in a day with time for a swim, food and a drink when you get back.

Fabulous day out for everyone :) - This is the best day trip. It’s so organised. You book in advance for your ferry & bikes. Everything is waiting for you when u arrive at Hilary’s. The staff a super nice. The bikes are easy to ride, 7 gears & comfy seats. The ferry is clean and on time.
You can do as little or as much as you like on the island. Don’t miss a visit to the pie shop :))). The staff on the island are really friendly and very knowledgeable. And last but not least the Quokkas are adorable. It’s our 4 visit and I look forward to doing it again next year.

Kiwis on Rottnest - Loved Rottnest and would consider staying on the island next time…..ferry was great even in slightly rough weather. We hired bikes from Rottnest Fast Ferries- we are cyclists so it was fine but they weren’t the best and some other companies seemed to have better quality ones. Would not hire bikes next time but loved the island

Great Transport, Efficient polite+++. Make the bike snorkel combination better! - This was organised and pleasant regarding transport. Timely friendly no uglys. We overnighted on Rottnest island out and back with a just right fel to the Ferry abd bike service. The gripe we hve is that they combine bikes and snorkelling equipment with a $100 dollar bond. But the bike spring holders drop the good snorkelling gear, leading to distressing back tracks. We tried using our overnight back packs, but they are too small. My daughter and I loved the bike snorkel rest circle on Rottnest. First gear is too high even for fit people, on Rottnest hills. A basket, or fixing the holding springs and a Phone/GPS holder would help, not looking for fallen snorkel gear. This is handyman level stuff. For those overnighting on the island a great place. Wanting to to cycle snorkle resort. Fix up the bikes to hold the snorkelling gear and navigate. Consider bike up grades such as more gears for the fit or e bike for less fit or older. The service is nice effective friendly and timely. Make the bike snorkel combo work.

Over rated - The ferry trip was fine / well organised going out but a bit of a mess quayside coming back. No organisation on return quayside for 4 ferries leaving within 1/2 hour of each other . One big queue of passengers and bikes with little instruction from any staff . A complete free for all . Why not have ropes showing lines for each like airports ? Anyway the weather was great and we cycled to the south for the ‘best’ snorkelling. What a let down , little salmon bay was crowded with school kids shouting and screaming . There was not much to see in the water , grey and silver fish but little of any colour . It was the same at all our stops.
The beaches are good but very crowded.
It was nice to cycle round , a little hilly for some so walking was the solution .
The settlement provides shops and food plus plenty of Quokkas scurrying for food.
It reminded us of a Center Parcs Village with huts around it to stay in ( not as nice though ) and this central area for all your needs.
We were probably expecting too much from the snorkelling experience having been to the Great Barrier Reef, Maldives and Egypt but we enjoyed the day out .

Disappointed - The voucher says bike included but it wasn’t. I had a hard time finding the desk in the beggining and then when I said I had a voucher the lady at the desk didn’t look at the voucher she just gave me the ticket and said to get on the boat. I had to ask where to go.
I saw some bikes on the boat and didn’t realise you need to get the bike from the desk when you get your tickets.
When I arrived they looked at my voucher and checked my ticket and said the bike wasn’t included but it said on the voucher that it was. Then they asked if I’d like to hire a bike but then I thought I’d have to pay even more for that so I declined.
I was disappointed with the lack of communication or clear signage and the false advertising. I suggest to buy the ferry tickets and hire a bike when you get there. It’s a lot cheaper

If you pay by card the bond they don’t give it back - They still have to return my bond for the two bikes it’s a shame!! And i did the tour the 16th of February the 10 working days are passed already! I try to contact the operator through email, phone and another email and no one respond! For a company like this is not a good behavior!
In the meantime they are still keeping my bond! Of 50$!!
