Tour description
Perth is one of the most isolated cities in the world, yet also one of the sunniest and most relaxed, situated along the broad Swan River on the western edge of Australia. Built on wealth from gold and mining, the city combines heritage shopping arcades with a glittering modern waterfront. On this walking tour, a local guide will reveal the city’s history and laid-back charm.
You’ll stroll through the revitalized Elizabeth Quay, explore historic shopping arcades, and hear the story of the gold rushes that made the city wealthy. Along the way, you’ll experience the easygoing spirit of Western Australia. Sunny and spacious, Perth is a city best explored on foot.
