About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- janemccallum20 contributionsMount Barker Art Trail tourVery relaxing as a local not to have to think about where to go to see fine art work. The day felt very relaxed with no pressure to rush in the exhibitions. Lunch at one of the local wineries was plentiful and tasty. I would recommend this trip to anyone visiting the area.Written October 7, 2024
- Tour468466822410 contributionsNo GapI was very disappointed as the tour is advertised as The Gap and Natural Wonders but we didn't see The Gap as the road was closed and had been for several weeks. There was no warning of this on the website. The tour driver was very knowledgeable.Written September 24, 2024
- Rochelle A0 contributionsA tasty day outA great introduction to Denmark and its delights. We enjoyed Joy’s commentary and local knowledge as we sat back and relaxed.Written July 27, 2024
- Emma R0 contributionsFantastic tourGreat day out. Our guide was Tim and he had lots of information. Scenery was gorgeous and we saw so much of the area. We even got a quick visit to the War Memorial as an extra surprise. Really enjoyed the beauty of The Gap and Natural Bridge. Beautiful part of the world.Written June 22, 2024
- travelphleg0 contributionsFantastic day tasting our way around the areaWineries, charcuterie, chocolates etc. were all delicious and unique to the area. Was a lovely break for me on a driving holiday to have someone else take the wheel. Susan was very knowledgeable about the area and super helpful in considering my husband's limited mobility and parked as close as possible to the best entry points, as well as assisting him on/off the very comfy passenger van. Our purchases were safely stored for us, including an Esky for our cheeses.Written June 12, 2024
- Lee M0 contributionsGreat Tour CompanyMy friend and I were treated with care and respect. Our tour guides, Tim and Michelle were very informative and helpful. They were pleasant and respectful. We felt safe as 2 women on holiday in a foreign city. The vehicles used were clean and reliable. The day was highlighted with great conversations and laughter. The 2 tours we did were the Granite skywalk and on a separate day, Tasting delicious Denmark. I cannot recommend Busy Blue Bus highly enough. Very good value for money and excellent customer service. Thank you for making our holiday very enjoyable.Written May 9, 2024
- Paradise484227596380 contributionsUnbelievable experience!!There’s not more to say than this is an unbelievable experience!! We were picked up and taken early and had a very enjoyable and knowledgable journey to the bay. It started as a slightly grey and quiet day but that changed quickly. The sun came out and so did the whales. They tour guides were amazing and knew all the whales names ages and spotted them really early (which i know is unpredictable) and followed them all day with multiple sighting of single males, groups and babies! (I’m not good at catching them on camera though) I would recommend this to anyone. Although if you are prone to sickness a warning to get tablets - we luckily were ok but it nearly was a very expensive sleep for my husband - and we were lucky it was a calmer day (which is still pretty choppy) Then picked up and dropped home - thank you so much for a great experienceWritten April 29, 2024
- sargesita0 contributionsTour was cancelled ONE HOUR before it was scheduled to start & they didn't let me knowI’m really disappointed and quite unimpressed with how the cancellation of the tour was handled. The tour was cancelled ONE HOUR before it was scheduled to start because the minimum number of people was not met. It seems I was called an hour before the tour was supposed to start, but no message was left, so I didn’t think it required an urgent callback when I missed it. Moreover, there was no follow-up email or text to inform me that the tour had been cancelled, so I went to the meeting place as expected and waited around 15 minutes before I realised that no guide was showing up. I then received an email over an hour after the tour was scheduled to start saying that the tour had been cancelled and my ticket refunded [I've attached a screenshot]. Cancelling a tour ONE HOUR before it is scheduled to start and then not informing me is really appalling customer service.Written April 29, 2024
- eloisephillips345900 contributionsDenmark Wine TourMichelle, our tour guide was amazing. Had a great time exploring beautiful Denmark and the wineries along with it. Would definitely recommend this tour:)Written April 28, 2024
- Fergierc0 contributionsTouribleFirst time visitors to Albany and weren’t here for long so wanted to get the most out of our stay. We booked this tour and looked forward to it. We rocked up on the morning with 3 other passenger’s and off we set. The driver, I don’t know his name as he didn’t introduce himself or anything about our day, had in-depth knowledge of rock and boulder formation in the area, fossils, shark attacks and real estate etc but little of the history, anything we gained was from the information of our stops. The tour could have been arranged and booked by ourselves, there was very little gain of the history etc for the amount we paid and felt the tour was overvalued for what we got.Written April 26, 2024
- Mark M0 contributionsHistoryThis is a very interesting place, especially if you’re interested in the history of the Anzacs beautiful views of King George Sound and Princess Royal HarbourWritten March 6, 2024
- cleo54c0 contributionsThe Gap and Natural WondersPicked up from the cruise port and set off to see the sites of Albany. First stop was Stoney Hill where you could look out at the coastline see Albany in the distance and see some unusual stone formations. Onto The Gap where you can walk out on this steel structure over the waves pounding into a granite channel 82 feet down and also see the Natural Bridge which is a granite arch made by thundering waves, wind, rain and time. Quite amazing. A good time was had by all and would recommend to one and all especially if visiting by cruise shipWritten February 28, 2024
- Tony H0 contributionsGreat tour and guideWould recommend as very good eco tour to National park and of course the Gap and Arch. Very cool and windy so take a jacket. Excellent tour. Great guide.Written January 23, 2024
- Penelopina300 contributionsGreat Day Out!Lovely day out with Busy Blue Bus Tours! We went on the Mt Barker Grape Escape with Susan as tour guide. We even had the bus to ourselves so it was like a private tour! We learned a lot about wine production in the area, sampled so much great wine and had a lovely morning snack and great lunch. It was great to interact with the producers who were all friendly. We felt unrushed and welcomed. Would recommend!Written January 19, 2024

The walk from car park to top is roughly 2.4 kms but at your own pace it is doable for most. The rock scrambles at the top require a little bit of coordination but I guarantee you the view is worth it! We got up there quite early so still had some cloud cover which was amazing, then the clouds started to break and the view became breathe taking. We even got to see some small icicles in the air floating about. Unforgettable….

Sounds like you had the best experience on the Granite Skywalk tour. It is doable and with a Tour Guide to support and provide strategies, most people can do the rock scramble and get to the breathtaking views. Djeran (autumn) is such a great time of year to do this walk when it's a little cooler, but the clouds clear to brilliant sunshine.

It was a long walk uphill, make sure you bring at least 1x litre of water per person. Check the weather and ensure your shoes is good for hiking. Very challenging walk but also very worth it once youre on the top.

The walk was challenging but the end view was awesome. The only problem was the last 65 metres or so, due to the hand grips/foot steps were too far apart for vertically challenged people (short people). My wife (155cm) had trouble reaching them safely.

Steady walk uphill 2km to granite rocks and skywalk. Quite difficult climb up rock to the ladder then up to the skywalk. Not for faint hearted. Fantastic views from skywalk.

Amazing time,
Smiling happy Maryanne was amazing, she had so much knowledge of the local area (helps to be local) didn’t mind all the questions we gave her. It was a great day out with the activities we did.
From the walk up to the Skywalk, looking at the amazing views. {Bugging Maryanne with more questions} the enjoyable wine tasting and lunch to the gong session at Mt Romance.
We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Unfortunately the tour didn't go ahead as I was the only one booked, so a bit disappointing. However, I was advised of this the day before so I could make other arrangements.

Trip was cancelled by the provider. No notification of this was received until with great difficulty and after repeated attempts trying to contact someone in order to sort out arrangements for pick-up. Just a mess. Not sure whether the blame lies with the provider or with Viator, but wasted a lot of time trying to sort it out. Really poor communication and I'm still waiting on a refund.

Keirin your frustration is apparent and acknowledged. The tour was cancelled due to illness of Tour Guide two days prior. Your refund will be provided by the agency with which you booked as they hold payment.

Susan it was a great walk and the determination to reach the top was rewarded at Ironwood Estate Wines. Mary was very considerate of our wet and cold condition, handing out towels and knee rugs as we sat to yummy lunch.
