Fremantle Tours and Trips

I must say that I throughly enjoyed my South Western Escape tour with AAT Kings bus company. Why, you say? Well… let’s start with the people they employ. People like Margaret, our tour guide and Mark, our driver. Such professional people who ensure the comfort and quality of the tour is their number one priority. Nothing was too big or small a request for these two to get right in there and give a helping hand. Then there’s the bus itself! Modern, clean and comfortable, with wide windows for picture taking and I shouldn’t forget the charging ports on board. Videos that relate to particular steps are shown to increase your awareness of what is coming up. Great accomodation, comfortable, clean, that are well positioned in the towns and cities you visit. There is a variety of meals to be had and every one of them were of a good standard and quality. Lastly, and it is by no means last, is the itinerary, which is really the reason that you wanted to go in the first place. Everything down to the last item is timed perfectly and meticulously planned. The information provided is most interesting and I found myself listening with baited breathe. There’s only one thing wrong that I can mention and that’s the last evening meal together. It means that you have to say good bye to the friends you’ve made along the way. However, sometimes, like me, you may meet up again with them on the next AAT trip that you take! Don’t wait, join an AAT Kings bus holiday today as you’ll never be this young again in your life!

A great way to get a taster of south west WA but due to the distances between towns/places of interest be prepared for a lot of hours sat on the bus and limited time at the stops. The accommodation and meals were good. The tour guide and driver were excellent. The itinerary could perhaps do with a few tweaks to make it more enjoyable e.g. why did we have to drive 40 mins to do a winery tour in Margaret River after an already long day of travelling. The coach had a few issues.

AAT staff are well trained to look after their customers. They seem to know just what the tourists are looking for. I have been on other tours with this company and they have covered all things I wanted to see. I recommend them who enjoys this sort of site seeing.. They call me The Happy Swaggie. (Neville Nolan)

Mark (our Driver) and Margaret (our Tour Guide) were both friendly, efficient and helpful. However, there was too much in too few days in the distances travelled. Half a day and evening at a Winery in Margaret River was inadequate as was Kalgoorlie which is more than a great hole in the ground and one remaining brothel. The first day was wasted as we did not depart until early afternoon for a tour of Perth and a "Welcome" Dinner... this could have been accomplished had we left in the morning and arrived at somewhere en route of the tour. I am not the only person not impressed with breakfast and bags on the bus at 6 am... definitely not suitable for octogenerians
