Naturaliste Tours is monitoring the ongoing situation and working closely with the relevant authorities.

Safety of our customers and colleagues is our top priority and we are following all the advice and guidance issued by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and Australia’s Department of Health. We are emphasizing the importance of frequent hand washing and good personal hygiene.

Our Operations Team is assessing the likely impact of COVID-19 on our services.

The official advice highlights that the most effective way to avoid contracting the virus is to wash your hands with soap and hot water. Naturaliste Tours is therefore reminding customers and staff of the importance of hygiene such as frequent hand washing. We have hand sanitizer available on the bus.

Staff clean and sanitize the tour bus after every tour, including the wiping down of surfaces.
