Our family had a great tour with Peter. He was happy to accommodate our itinerary and made the day interesting with his vast knowledge of the places we visited. We would recommend Peter’s tour to all without hesitation.

Itinerary
**This is generally only a photo stretch and look stop only. A beautiful protected sandy beach and clear blue water makes this a popular local swimming beach. An off shore reef barrier protects and shelters the lagoon and there are public change rooms and showers if you want to plan this as a swimming stop in advance. Bring appropriate swimming gear. goggles and towels if you want to go for a dip in the Indian Ocean before heading up to the Pinnacles later. Optional swim/dive determines other stop durations and inclusions in your day. Potentially consider a 45 minute stop if snorkeling is your thing.
**Optional stop. By request only. Entry to the Yanchep National Park is optional and the entry fee of $10 per person not included in the tour price. The Park is home to Kangaroos which roam freely and a small number of Koalas which are in an open viewing enclosure.
"Imaginatively" named after the two large limestone features off the beach, Two Rocks is a quirky little seaside town with an unusual past that is worth passing through. A giant "King Neptune" statue looks out to sea and is a fun photo stop. There are also a few obscure links to the Pinnacles at the Two Rocks marina which are included in the stop.
** Optional stop for those with plenty of energy to burn, the Lancelin Sand Dunes offer a fun opportunity to hire a board and test your sand dune surfing skills! Board Hire is not included in the tour and costs $10 for an hour for one board. Goggles are recommended if its windy as sand blowing in your face can be unpleasant. If you dont want to try the sandboarding, the landscape makes for a great photo stop.
The Pinnacles Desert landscape is a natural gallery of hundreds of randomly shaped and differently coloured & sized "stones" much like a type of Stonehenge. Scientists have varying theories to their origins and you can choose the "Alien" option if you like - but the desert will leave you with more questions than answers. Sandy winding pathways enable vehicle access through the Pinnacles Desert park and there are sidings which allow temporary parking and photography stops to take place. Buses stay in the car park. This tour shows you much more as you drive into the desert. Its common for visitors to take photos of the Pinnacles Desert as a natural background landscape. There is a modern Discovery Centre at the entrance to the Desert. Displays of the wildlife and flora of the Park are also part of the Discovery Centre as well as a souvenir shop.
The seaside fishing town of Cervantes is a 15 minute drive north of the Pinnacles and is the preferred lunch stop for the day. There are two great restaurants to choose from which both offer the local Lobster on the menu. The Lobster Shack is the busier more well known choice and the Cervantes Bistro also offers a broad menu of seafood, steaks, pasta and drinks. Please advise which you might prefer so tables can be booked prior. Lunch is at your expense.

An excellent day out with Peter who was interesting and informative and clearly loves his job. We recommend a trip to the Pinnacles either him.
The pinnacles are a unique experience that must be seen to be appreciated-it’s a fascinating landscape. From start to finish, everything was simply excellent. Peter's expertise and friendly demeanor made the tour both enjoyable and educational. We were particularly impressed with his detailed knowledge and storytelling. Lunch at the Lobster Shack was also very good and it’s nice to support a local business. We highly recommend this tour for anyone that wants to see something unique and memorable.
We enjoyed a tour of the Pinnacles with Peter tremendously. He contacted me in advance, which was really nice since we don't have to worry about the pick-up at the hotel (we encountered some mistake in the past with a different tour), and we made an arrangement for the drop-off. He was a delightful fun person and gave us explanations not only about the pinnacles but also about Western Australia's unique plants and the history of the area. We are quite happy that we chose Peter's tour.
Peter was courteous and informed with a very comfortable car. He went above and beyond. We cannot recommend this tour highly enough!
Peter was the consummate guide — knowledgeable, creative, easy-going. His willingness to custom-design our itinerary — first in advance and then modifying it during the day when we asked for something — was deeply appreciated. There was NO sense of being rushed. Our experience was 540 degrees different from that had we been in a group tour. My wife and I will seek Peter out when we next return to Perth.
My husband and I enjoyed a fun and fascinating tour of the Pinnacles with Peter yesterday. We thought our plans would have to be cancelled when our cruise ship was delayed a day out of Geraldton. Peter was so gracious and accommodating to meet us early morning on a Sunday instead so that we could fit the tour in during our shortened stay. The tour started with an informative drive around Fremantle which is a very pretty town. We then proceeded through Perth and up to the Pinnacles with Peter explaining a lot about the flora and the fauna of the area. Being November, the "Christmas trees" were in bloom so it was a very nice ride. The car was extremely comfortable and clean. When we got to the Pinnacles, it was an experience not only observing the geology but also using one's imagination (guided by the very knowledgeable Peter) of what all the rock shapes looked like. Imagine the "art of cloud watching" turned into the "art of rock watching." After Pinnacles, Peter took us to the Lobster Shack for lunch. It was delicious! We had lobster chowder, calamari (squid) rings and abalone that were all excellent, all the while enjoying the lunch overlooking the sea and the lobster boats moored in the bay. We heartily recommend a trip to the Pinnacles with Peter and Perths Tiny Tours. You will not be disappointed!
Magical Day - Traveling North from Perth to the Pinnacles with stops along the way at King Neptune Sculpture andTwo Rocks Beach, Lancelin and Cervantes for Lunch. This was our first trip to Perth so we chose to do two trips with Peter - North and South. I chose the Pinnacles because of the trip along the coast and into the red desert with the petrified forest. We stopped along the way to see some of the Australian Fauna and the Lake Thetis Stromatolites - one of the oldest living organisms on earth. We were lucky to see a blue tongued lizard along the side of the walkway here. The Pinnacles - Amazing - Incredible - Wonderful - you must visit the centre before you visit the actual area where the Pinnacles so you can get an idea of the history of the area and how the pinnacles have been formed 25 - 30Ths years ago. Peter was great at pointing out some of the names the pinnacles had been given by travellers to the area and kindly took pictures for us with the pinnacles and provided fly protection when we asked for it. The flies weren't that bad really but why not makes for a great photo and a fuss free experience. Peter was a fabulous guide for the day - was able to impart heaps of interesting information, answered questions and obliged taking photos of the obligatory animal road signs on the road when it was safe to do so. If you are looking to do a small group tour - Peter is your man - relaxed fun day excellent safe driver arrived on time and dropped us off at the door of our hotel after.
Peter went above and beyond for my wife and I. We ended up doing two tours with him. He completely customized both tours for what we were looking to do. First tour we did was the Pinnacles day tour. Was originally scheduled for a different day but due to possible weather Peter reached out about doing it a day earlier. Turned out to be the best move. Had we done it on the day it was originally scheduled we would have been stuck in the rain!! Also on the Pinnacles tour Peter organized a coast route going out from Perth and a inner country route going back to Perth. Gave my wife and I a chance to get two different perspectives of the country. Also that night he took us around to a few other spots in the city to see different perspectives with the city lights on. Also went to couple view points to get a really good view of the city at night. The second tour we did was the Caversham wildlife park plus tour. This was an awesome tour to see some of the local animals native to the west side of Australia and country of Australia. Even had the chance to hold a koala, feed some Kangaroos, and see a kookaburra up close among many others. The part of being able to hold a koala was a bucket list thing for my wife. :) after spending time at the wildlife park we went and visited some other local spots and towns close to Perth. The Gin tasting at GinGinGin was amazing. Highly recommend doing that! Going to Fremantle was fun as well. In between though we went to an amazing bakery and got some food for lunch that was hard to beat!! All in all the two days were amazing and I would highly recommend Peter to anyone. He was very personable and friendly. His knowledge and stories were great to listen to.
My sister and I had an absolutely brilliant day exploring the Pinnacles with Peter as our guide! He was incredibly informative, engaging and thoughtful, showing us numerous sights on the way to the Pinnacles and back. We really couldn’t recommend Tiny Tours enough after such a great time! Thank you again!
We had an amazing time with Peter on our Pinnacles tour! He was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all of our questions and catered the tour to our group! Would highly recommend this tour to anyone!
Peter customized our tour to the Pinnacles Desert, adding stops to fit our interests. He was very responsive in the planning stages and delivered just what we wanted. Go for the private tour splurge and you won't be sorry!
I was in Freemantle for a conference and only had Sunday to do the Pinnacles so booked Peter to take me. He was fantastic, great communication beforehand and had so many interesting facts and info that he shared on the journey. We stopped at New Norcia on the way up which was nice. The weather was amazing, and the Pinnacles were just incredible. We went to the Lobster Shack for a very late lunch, I was really surprised how good the food was. We drove back via the coast road and stopped to look at the grass trees in close up All in all a really fantastic day. Definitely recommend people book Peter. Far far better value than the coach tours and you get to see what you want and have great company as well.
Another grand day out with Peter. Did his best to enliven what could have been a tedious journey there with frequent stops at coastal towns along with his usual string of anecdotes and comments. The Pinnacles, when we arrived fully lived up to expectations again brought to life by all our imaginations.
We had an amazing day with Peter, he is so knowledgeable on the area and will tweak the tour to suit you. Peter is so flexible you can spend as long or as short at the destinations that suit you. The Pinnacles are magical and the huge sand dunes are amazing.
If you want a private and personalized experience Peter is the one. I did the Pinnacles/Cervantes day tour in Jan 2023 fab day to be out, great sunshine, clear day, no bugs and all the ins and outs that you wouldn't get on those prefab tour itineraries...lookouts with ocean views; Two Rocks town; white sand dunes; lancelin lookout; lobster shack is a must do for lunch out that way; the pinnacles in all their sandy glory, canola fields and New Norcia Monestary to round out the day. After that first fabulous day out...Peter agreed to take me out again... to Freemantle and we freestyled it for the day...went to Heirisson Island to search out the resident kangaroos (found them..."happy dance"); took in the art scene at East West Design Co...so fab...respect and recognition to the artists please; went to Freemantle Harbour (pop in at Cicerellos) and don't forget to pay homage to the one and only Bon Scott; drove, strolled, walked along the river banks...LoQuay River cafe for lunch was legit. Lookout at Blackwall Beach is a must see/must do. Trek to waterfall...On the way to airport...quick trip down the switch backs...couldnt have spent the last few hours in Perth better than this. For sure...if you want to maximize your trip experience Perth Tiny Tours is the partner of choice. See you again in Aug/Sept Peter.
Outstanding. Thoroughly enjoyed the tour! Thoughtful and comprehensive. Great way to spend a day exploring North of Perth.
It's when things go wrong when you discover just how good a tour company is and Peter at Perths Tiny Tours proved to be of the very best when our cruise ship docked two hours late. Our private tour to Pinnacles Desert went ahead as though nothing had happened. We visited every location we had expected to visit and our time at Pinnacles Desert wasn't impacted. By the time we arrived back in Perth and Fremantle night had fallen but Peter insisted in showing us around to ensure our tour was complete! Throughout the day we were treated to a very comprehensive commentary full of information and anecdotes and our questions were treated to very full answers. If a visit to Pinnacles Desert is on the cards then Perths Tiny Tours comes highly recommended.
Wonderful day visiting the Pinnacles, Cervantes and Lancelin Dunes with Peter. Great fun on the dunes and the Pinnacles were beautiful. Peter is hugely personable and knowledgeable, answering all our questions and ensuring we had a fun day out well suited to our family with 2 teens. Highly recommended.
Peter is a fantastic, knowledgeable guide. Our entire day was full of interesting stops. The tour has plenty of flexibility and Peter makes suggestions about what to see at different points, depending on your interests and current mood. We were a 16 year old and his father, and the teen had an amazing time as well! Don’t miss the tour if you happen to be in Perth for a few days.
Best way to see Perth with a fantastic tour guide. Peter is fun, easy to get along with and knows where all the good things to see are. We did the Pinnacles tour and the Margaret River tour. Saw many amazing places that were not on the itinerary of any other coach trips from other big companies. As it is a private tour Peter caters the tour to suit your group and what you would like to see. I couldn't imagine a better way to see Perth. Avoid the stress of getting Lost and enjoy a few cheecky drinks if you wish. Peters tours are great value for money and we will do another tour with Peter next time we come to Perth to explore more good places that western Australia has to offer.
I strongly recommend Perths Tiny tour / Peter. We did 2 tours with Peter: the pinnacles day tour and the Margaret river tour. For each tour, he picked us at our hotel and dropped us off at the end of the tour. The tours were well organized and we saw really nice things: the must sees like the Pinnacles but also more peculiar things like the gnomes'village. Peter was also a really informative guide telling us a lot about western Australia. FYI, we booked 2 tours with other companies and they cancelled last minute. Peter saved us and took us last minute on the Margaret river tour. Thank you Peter!
An excellent day tour, very worth the price. pick up and drop off was provided. Peter was very helpful and knowable about the area and things to do. All five kids aged 11-18 had a great time. 10/10 would recommend to others
We had a great day with Pete. Besides the Pinnacles, where we spent as much time as we wanted, we stopped many times to see interesting plants, took a detour to a lake with stromatolites and visited huge dunes of white sand where sand boarding was happening. He provided refreshing snacks along the way. He took pictures throughout the day that he willingly shared to add to our record of the day. A wonderful day all around.
I don’t think whatever I write does justice to the service we received from Peter. He is downright a superstar tour guide and a gem of person. We thoroughly enjoyed our time during the Pinnacles tour. Peter also made a few stops along the way and back, which helped us to see some pristine Western Australian landscape. Peter also had some gastronomic surprises for us along the way which were delightful. There is absolutely no doubt that we will recommend Peter for whatever tours he provides as part of his service.
With only limited time in Perth, my wife and I wanted to choose a small tour operator that maximized our time at each location. Peter did not disappoint. He picked us up directly at our hotel, taking us to Yanchep National park to see koalas, kangaroos, and a go on a cave tour. Next, we visited the expansive sand dunes of Lancelin. Our final stop was at the Pinnacles to view the rock formations. Peter was a wonderful guide. He provided insights at each location and never made us feel rushed as we explored. We had an amazing experience and would definitely recommend Perth Tiny Tours to anyone else looking to visit Western Australia.
We were really surprised that we could get a tour for our small company of three persons. We were picked up and dropped of at our hotel and had the most friendly guide. No effort was too much. All we had to do was ask and Peter fulfilled our wishes. Even more, he made suggestions so we really got the most out of our day. We felt like millionaires for a day!!
Guide was great! Well prepared, described the Pinnacles, the plantation, Guilderton and Two Rocks in great details. Highly recommended
Peter is a wonderful guide and we had a great time, the day we spent with him was probably our best day in Perth. Am traveling with my mum who is in her late 60 and Pete took care of her really well, things were all arranged according to our pace and needs, and when he knew my mum loves flowers he took us to a bushwalking on the way back, though it was a short walk but it was the best experience (sorry pinnacles) as the forest was full of that rich earthy / mushroom smell. Communication with Pete was easy, he picked us up as scheduled, took us to a tasty lunch, and offered yummy fruits on the way. The key attraction is the Pinnacle, but there were lots of little things to see along the way, we could stop and enjoy the scenery as we like, which is a very good way to tour Perth. Best of all he captured quite some lovely moments and took some really nice shots for us, we are grateful to have some good record of our journey, Thank you Pete~
Peter from Tiny Tours is a diamond of a person and a terrific tour guide. The He is so warm, friendly and knowledgeable. He cannot do enough to make your day as nice as humanly possible. Highly recommended for any tour in/around Perth. He will tailor your experience to exactly what you want (and has a great eye for photography so will capture any fantastic moment you'd like perfectly). Thank you so much. A+++
Beautiful experience and family time! Peter provides a full personalised tour, best in class for sure! There are lot of things to do around Perth, but the right guide makes the difference, ensuring unforgettable moments. Difficult to forget all those magical moments in Perth!!!!
