Pinnacles Sunset Dinner & Star Gazing Tour with Sandboarding

mark and peter were our guides for the day, and they were really knowledgeable and fun! peter pulled over to let us see a wild emu, and spoke of the sand dunes and holiday life in lancelin as we were driving over for a pit stop. sand boarding was fun too, even though the hike up the dune was slightly arduous (and had a few grains to crunch on in my mouth). as we moved up further, mark brought us down to the grasslands where we got to learn about these ancient trees in great detail. the sunset over at pinnacles was really beautiful this sunday, and the telescope set up enabled us to see the moon's beautiful craters. there was a variety of homemade foods prepared alongside bbq meat! we grabbed full plates and sat around peter as he talked to us about the solar system, milky way and wayfinding with stars. i left with a lot of new knowledge about the universe, an appreciation for the slow life and admiration for our guides' dedication to creating such an impressive experience. thank you!!!

This was an amazing tour. Started with pickup by Sam from Lumineer at 12.25pm from our chosen hotel in a Toyota Coaster minibus; there were 13 of us on this tour, a comfortable group with people from Australia, US, Asia. Then we picked up Keith (the astronomer), then sandboarding, and finally about 4+pm while still bright, at the Pinnacles desert until dark. *What we love: (1) Sam & Keith: engaging, informative, knowledgeable, hands on. (2) BBQ dinner cooked by Sam. Fantastic spread with steak, chicken and sausages; wine, bubbly, and instant coffee & soup. (Alas the cold weather hardened the meat quickly). (3) The stargazing: beyond amazing. Keith directed us what to look out for - we saw Venus and the milky way. *Misses for us: (1) Minibus: wife sat where the back wheel was protruding; no recline for the long drive; no mobile charging capability; (2) Sandboarding: fun, but climbing up the sand was tiring, unless you're young:) Overall: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, thank u Sam & Keith!

Super fun and well thought out tour! We really enjoyed the activities and our guide Aaron was also very knowledgeable and friendly, helping to cook the barbecue and share fun facts about Western Australia and the different wildlife 😋 Thank you so much !!

It was an incredible experience joining the trip. I especially enjoyed sand skiing and taking in the beautiful scenery. Watching the sunset in such a stunning environment was unforgettable, and seeing the stars at night in the vast, dark open space made it a truly memorable experience.

Very knowledgeable guide! Well planned and organised. BBQ spread was good with vegetarian options as well. Everything was thought of - from binoculars, telescope to blankets for the chilly time at the desert. Also had an extremely fun time sandboarding. Definitely recommend this experience!

My husband and I had an amazing time on this tour! The scenery at each location was beautiful and our guide, Leighton was fantastic. He explained to us various facts about each location and was an amazing driver throughout the journey. The guides even helped us get the best photographs at the park and pointed out different planets and star systems. Their astronomy knowledge made the stargazing that much better. I’d absolutely go on this tour again.

Wonderful experience and weather to the Pinnacles, friendly tour guide Sam and Gavin guided us throughout while explaining on topics such as national exports of WA, types of wild plants, and also alternatives to tours around WA area. Lovely experience. Beautiful moon and stars sighting as well. ☀️🏜️🌕🐚

Sandboarding at Lancelin Sand dunes is a good fun experience, especially for my two kids 14 and 9. The lookout to Indian Ocean is beautiful. The Pinnacles Desert is a beauty during the evening. Very nice eventful trip. Only disappointing part is that we could not see any stars, probably because of the cloudy weather. Can only spot a few faint stars.

bus came on time at hotel to pick-up. about 2 hrs drive from Perth city centre. driver/guide was very friendly & talkative, which was good. views were superb during the drive. provided sandboarding boards at sand dunes, the beach was so beautiful, can take a dip too, pinnacle was beautiful only that at night it was a full moon hence not much stars were visible. dinner was sausages & some crackers with dips. it was a wholesome experience!

had lots of fun! unfortunately we didn’t manage to see the stars due to cloudy skies, but all the guides were super knowledgeable & entertaining. sand boarding was the stand out! and we loved our guide’s Sam sarcastic humour too. would recommend if you have time!
