We were picked up by Mike at our hotel and it turned out we were the only 2 on the tour! The first half was looking at areas on the two sides of the Naturiste peninsula. Mike was very knowledgeable and clearly loved the area, so we learned a lot. We had a lovely stop at Sugarloaf Rock, with stunning views and a glass of wine or beer. We then visited two wineries for tastings, which were included in the price. Both were good but different. The first one had lovely views and we sat on the terrace. The lady told us about a wine and gave us a taste but each time she went off for a while, as there were other people there too. I felt we spent a bit too long here. The second was more corporate but we had a lovely French assistant who stayed with us all the time, so we could discuss the differences between French and Australian wines. We then stopped at a place where they make skin products, olive oil and all sorts. This was nice and there were lovely things to buy. It was a really good, varied and interesting tour.

Did the tour with Mick today. I can highly recommend giving this a try. Mick was knowledgeable and enthusiastic throughout the morning. Just a shame we aren't here long enough to take part in the wine tour...

We did the Nocturnal Wildlife tour and it was absolutely amazing! The guides were excellent and so knowledgable. Even being Aussies, just down from Perth, we learnt so much about the animals, plants and general region. The animal experience was wonderful, getting to pat and feed animals and see others that you wouldn't nornally see. I also really enjoyed learning more about the Wardandi people and their knowledge and use of the different plants. A fantastic tour that I thoroughly recommend to everyone visiting the region!

We are not new to this tour, but we never tire of it. Every time we visit Margaret River with family or friends, we always recommend Mick and Ryan’s Nocturnal Walk. They are a wealth of knowledge, incredibly respectful of the wildlife, aboriginal culture and create such an engaging experience for all ages. We’ve done this tour several times with our children from aged 1 - 18 who says , its his favourite part of Margaret river. An absolute must do
