The weather was great, the waters were calm, I was so surprised how everything works so well on the island- great infrastructure. Awesome bus trip around the island- (we decided to just do the loop as I'm on crutches) lovely meal at the restaurant and got to see the Quokka's!

My ticketing experience with Headout was positive: easy to navigate my way around the site & delivery of eticket was excellent. Absolutely loved exploring Ngilgi Caves, seeing & learning about the different formations. Hubby is 84yrs & I'm 68 yrs, yet we managed the steps down & up because of the clever layout with benches to sit on in each resting spot. Because of the quality, we bought gifts in the store as well. Team was friendly & helpful. Honestly, this was the best 2-3 hrs spent and great value in all respects.

Great afternoon experience. We were 65 and my wife 63. She had a stroke 12 years ago and was uncertain if she would cope with the steps, but had a great time. Great handrails to help you climb the steps down and up. Fantastic rock formations. Nice and cool on a hot day. Very informative all the way around. Highly recommended

The tour was great but the communication with headout for poor, we needed to reschedule due to bad weather, they never responded to my email and had no choice to talk to Ai assistant, next time I'll be booking local and avoiding this service.
