We were w group of 6 coming off a cruise ship and needing a tour of Perth before heading to Sydney. Peter was fantastic. His love and knowledge of Perth was fantastic and he helped us fall in love with the city too. We were a group with many different interests and abilities and he made the trip special for each of us. Kudos to Peter. 11 out of 10!

Iconic Cottesloe Beach is Perths most famous and well loved beach. A popular seaside cafe,bar & restaurant strip also famous for the annual "Sculptures by the Sea" Festival. If the time is right we can take in a sunset here. My Sunsets & City Lights Tour is possibly more appropriate though.

Great city tour ! Peter is such a nice companion. And we did have a good sense of almost the whole city of Perth. NB: we had a nice lunch by the river,,, got to specifically ask this to him … super !
Peter is a joyful person, a prepared and available guide who accurately explains what you are visiting. He suggests the right timing for a successful tour and anticipates the wishes of his guests. Thanks Peter for such wonderful day in Perth.
Peter was a wonderful guide. He filled our day with knowledge, scenery, experiences, history and quirky stops during our tour of Freemantle and Perth. He is pleasant, punctual and a very nice person to spend the tour with. We would highly recommebd Peter as your guide! Patti & Dave Morrison
We spent a day with Pete in Perth and the surrounding area Fremantle etc was a fantastic day. Pete took us to places that we would never have found by ourselves. Pete an easy going guy who wants to make sure that you enjoy the day as much as possible. When we come back to Perth will definitely give him a call
Peter picked us up from our hotel and took us on a road trip to the Pinnacles. On the way we had some kooky stops, which entertained and informed. At the Pinnacles , Peter introduced us to the weird rocks, which clearly had been left by aliens to confuse the locals. This was followed by lunch at the Lobster Shack before returning to our hotel. It was a great pleasure to spend time on the road discussing a wide range of subjects, whilst listening to his great playlist. Poms on tour with a top Aussie bloke, no worries!
My tour guide Peter took on a comprehensive tour of the city of Perth, a place I had not visited before. The day went quickly but full of a great experience. As I told Peter, I’ve got my invitation to come back!
I organised a solo Big Perth Day Tour for myself with Peter. Honestly, I had the best time, saw many wonderful sights, experiencing what Perth and surrounds has to offer and more. Peter is very knowledgeable of Perth, being a local and loves showing people around his home town. As someone famous once said, "do yourself a favour" ... book with Peter and you will be in for a treat!!
A very unique and personable experience with Peter! It was our first time in Australia, the entire morning was sunny till afternoon as it started showering, Peter would make sure we find shelter and wait for him while he rushed to his car to pick us up. We feel the passion in Peter, as he is genuine and sincere, the things he shared with us are what friends would rather than the other typical tours. He drove us to find Kangaroos upon our request, there is no guarantee, but we managed to spot them, how lucky!! I shall let the pictures do the talking. If you want a private tour, don't hesitate, because I will also recommend Peter to my friends.
This day tour of Perth and Fremantle with Peter was just what I was looking for as I only had one day there. Peter arrived on time, was very knowledgeable about the city and was great company. I would definitely recommend this tour and, when I next come to Perth, I’ll book one of Peter’s other tours.
We arrived in Freemantle by cruise ship and Peter was waiting. As this was the end of our cruise we arranged for a day tour ending at our hotel. Peter was a fantastic guide and showed us so much of Perth and surrounding area. We can highly recommend him if you need a tour while in this area.
Peter was quite simply the best in every respect. He quickly established a connection with the three of us and from then onwards the day flowed effortlessly as Peter’s expert knowledge of Perth allowed him to fill every moment of our day with the iconic landmarks intermingled with some well kept secret places that only a local with a passion for what he is doing can impart to his visitors. A thoroughly enjoyable day for all of us. Thankyou Peter. You are the best. Graeme,Lois and Helen
Peter was really friendly. We were introduced to interesting places, which we wouldn’t have known/ outside of the mainstream itinerary. Peter was also really thoughtful and took great care of us throughout the day. 10/10 would recommend Peter to anyone visiting Perth!
Personalised tour to suit us. Peter was very polite & arrived on time. We would recommend him to our friends.
We had a fantastic day with Pete. We saw everything we wanted to and more! Pete also went out of his way to take us on a detour to the airport to collect our lost luggage (not happy Qantas!). Would recommend Pete to all!
We 7 of us went a complete day tour Big Perth. First of all we aren't local neither Australian. So No idea about anything in Perth or around. Found Peter and tiny tour online. Must say this one man is complete army. Full stop with my search. Speaking about tour it was really great. And more importantly, I wanna speak about Mr. Peter... A lovely Gentleman. Hats off to you... You tolerated Us so long with thousands questions and answers. Everyone of us enjoyed fullest. Such a day finished so early with a blink man. I wanna say Thank You to you on behalf of all 6 friends of mine, for a lovely day. Thanks thanks and thanks. Really appreciated. Hope to see you soon again. :))
We were on a cruise and had a specific time we were in port. Peter met us at the terminal and gave a great tour of Fremantle and Perth. He customized it to our time and interests. He obviously loves his city and we were fortunate to share it with him for a few hours.
Peter took care of all of our needs, from meeting us at the cruise port, to taking us to not only the “tourist” sites, but to exciting and educational “off the beaten path” sites, to a great lunch site and terrific “quench your thirst” sites. His personality, great driving skills and knowledge of Fremantle and Perth, created a 7 star experience!
This is a great for a taste of real Perth and get to see places you might miss without a guide. I visited Perth with my father and we landed at 5am, faced with the prospect of dragging cases and a 70 yo around (although a pretty fit one) it was great news that Peter could start the tour early from the airport. We had a wonderful day and Peter was very flexible and considerate, along with lots of local info. We were very happy with our choice of tour and guide and would highly recommend it!
I took Big Perth private day tour with Peter yesterday. I was impressed by his knowledge, friendliness, patience and flexibility. He was able to organise the trip itinerary based on my request which includes lesser known sights, and was able to get through all of them. He also shared lots of informative (and sometimes funny) backgound on the sites. I absolutely had a wonderful day in Perth & Fremantle with him, and will definitely recommend him as a tour guide.
