About this tour

A 10-hour air and ground tour combining two of Western Australia's most distinctive landscapes in a single day. You'll fly from Perth over farmland to Wave Rock, explore the massive natural rock formation and surrounding bushland, then fly to Rottnest Island for time on the beach with quokkas before returning to Perth. All transport and entry fees are covered; bring your own food or budget for meals on the island.

Highlights

  • Scenic flights over Perth foothills and farmland to Wave Rock
  • Walk around the iconic curved rock formation and wildflower reserves
  • Visit Wave Rock museum and bushland exploration
  • Fly over the coast to Rottnest Island
  • Beach time with wild quokkas on Perth's island holiday spot
  • Return flight to Perth included
  • Wheelchair-accessible transport and accessible facilities

What to expect

You'll meet your group early and head to the airfield for a scenic flight westward over Perth's outskirts and farming regions toward Wave Rock. Once you land, you'll have time to walk around the distinctive pale granite formation, visit the on-site museum, and explore the surrounding bushland and wildflower areas. After your ground exploration, you'll fly again—this time heading south toward the coast and landing at Rottnest Island, where you'll have time to relax on the beach, spot quokkas in their natural habitat, and take in the island atmosphere. The return flight to Perth caps the day.

Good to know

This suits anyone wanting to see two major WA attractions without multiple separate bookings or long road journeys—the flights replace driving time. Fitness levels of all types are catered for, though the pace involves some walking and standing. Book a minimum of two adults. The tour is weather-dependent; poor conditions may trigger a cancellation with a rescheduled date or refund offered. Wheelchair users and families with infants are well accommodated—prams are allowed and infants sit on an adult's lap in the aircraft. Food is not included, so either pack snacks or budget for meals at Rottnest. Peak times in summer may mean busier beaches and quokka spotting.
