Family run and they're clearly committed to offering a good service - everyone was knowledgeable, friendly, and professional.
We didn't see any sea-life but that's just luck. Twitchers were happy though as there were lots of birds.
The morning tea was tasty and generous, and the glass of bubbles turned into two!
While it means an early start it's worth going when there's a 'spring tide' (every other week) to get a sense of the how far the tide goes out.
Only feedback is that I would have preferred have more time to stop and properly look at the footprints, as there was a lot of explanation/ talking and then people asked to stand in the footprints, then we had to head back.

The whole morning was a delight, very professionally organised, entertaining and informative.
The supply of booties was excellent, the boat excellent, the general commentary from Rebecca and the dinosaur information and enthusiasm of Miles also excellent. Rebecca was a superb host.
The trip was finished with savouries and champagne, also excellent.
This is not an adventure tour but it was a delightful way to spend a morning in Broome.
Highly recommended.

There had to be a couple of day changes due to weather and June was very good in assisting us. Rebecca led the tour and was fantastic with her fun personality she made even the safety briefing fun. The walk out to the boat and then Miles talk as we walked over the rocks and studied the various footprints was very interesting. So much history in these rocks and so well preserved. This trip is certainly worth taking.

What a fantastic tour organized by a very friendly and knowledgeable couple. This is a family-owned business , and the family cares about the visitor. Not only is the scenery breathtaking, the boat ride fun but you will learn about how dinosaurs footprints ended up in the Broome surroundings. A must-go

It was the best tour of the holiday. Loved that our guide Miles was so very knowledgeable about the dinosaurs.

Wonderful family run business with the couple, Myles (boat driver cum dinosaur guide) & Bec (tour guide) and Bec's mum June (driver who picked us up). Information given on the huge variation on the tides and great that Bec highlighted to pay attention to our surroundings before we left to compare with the rising tide when we came back. Interesting dinosaur info given by Myles and only wished that we could have more time exploring the area. Fortunate to even see turtles and birdlife and a relaxing time having champagne/juice/coffee/tea with a platter of delicious pastries, cheese and fruit. It was all the more special as it was hubby's birthday.

This tour was my most memorable Broome experience. I learnt so much. Experienced the super tide changes, saw marine life and dinosaur footprints. Very friendly and enthusiastic family operating the tour. Walking back to the beach at low tide made my new profile picture. Amazing experience

The whole trip from start to finish was absolutely amazing. The tour operated were born to do this job and live their lifestyle. I would highly recommend if visiting Broome to make sure this trio is on your list.
I will do it every time I visit now.
