    This is a great way to see the Northern Territory at its best. Great communication from the company and quick responses to queries. The guides were very knowledgeable and friendly and great fun too. Absolute highlight has to be the East Alligator river cruise with Hilton as the fantastic and engaging guide.

    Delightful Travel’s 7-day Perth tour is a well-paced with professional tour guide itinerary that covers key highlights like Fremantle, Rottnest Island, the Pinnacles, and Margaret River, though it suits laid-back travelers more than those seeking in-depth local immersion. Highly recommended.
