Finally I found a trip that covered the places in Southern Western Australia that I I wanted to visit.

Accommodation was varied(sometimes motel rooms, sometimes big hotels. Always clean and comfortable. Those in the remotest locations seemed to provide the best dinners (e.g. our night at Wave Rock). Only criticism is most did not provide a safety deposit box for valuables so you were always having to carry items with you.
Anonymous | Traveled in June
In the brochure for my trip it stated 10 dinners provided..A month before my trip started l got some pre trip information and noticed there were 7 dinners provided.. I also booked and paid my deposit 6 months before... I did have notification of a hotel change but nothing re the 3 missing dinners. I will not travel with AAT again.. Anna our tour guide was absolutely lovely.. Martin our bus driver was a very safe and careful driver..

All accommodation was clean and comfortable. Margaret River had shower over bath, not suitable for seniors. Some places lacked handrails or non slip bathmat.
