You got a chance to feed kangaroos, touch the animals and take photos with them. Next was Lancelin sand dune- adventurous 4x4 bus ride going through the hilly sand dune like going on a roller coaster. You then get to do sand boarding- a must try! After that headed to lobster shack in a fishing village Cervantes for lunch. Finally to the Nambung National Park to experience fantastic view of the pinnacle dessert. Really enjoyed the trip. Good narrative by the tour driver Pete.”
