Review the Pinnacles sunset BBQ, Lancelin sandboarding and stargazing tour from Perth, with practical tips on value, timing, food and comfort.

“Gavin the tour guide was amazing! Very knowledgeable and happy to answer all questions. The tour is also perfect for vegetarians. They even wrapped the veggie patty in extra parchment paper so it doesn’t come in contact with the meat grill!! We very much appreciate this gesture and were sooo surprised about the thoughtfulness! Thank you all very much! We can absolutely recommend this tour!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 1,122 reviews · from $89

Sydney Harbour sunset dinner cruise review with Opera House views, three-course dining, live music, window-seat tips, price, and practical advice.

“It was a great way to see Sydney Harbour from the water. The timing is too early for a 'Sunset' dinner in Summertime but it was still a great experience dining with good food on a ship. Wait staff were attentive and helpful. We had a window seat, but you could go out on deck to look if you wanted.”
