A very good guide and there was also time to tour some of the sites on your own. The eating took place quite late in the afternoon, you should bring some snacks with you 😅

The tour was very good. The guide explained us very well everything. Don’t forget to bring a bottle of water cause it’s very hot. The ticket for the blue eye is 3€, the ticket for salt springs is 6€ and at shark bay if you don’t have beach shoes you can rent some for 3€.
