Shore Excursion: City of Perth Tour

The journey, in full

Your sightseeing adventure begins with pick-up at the Fremantle Cruise Ship Terminal. We start the day with a scenic stop at Cottesloe Beach, one of Perth’s most iconic coastal spots. Famous for its white sands and clear turquoise waters, it’s the perfect place for a photo opportunity and a taste of the city’s beautiful coastline. Next, drive along the prestigious “Millionaires Row” and admire the stunning waterfront mansions that line this exclusive part of Perth’s shoreline. Continue into the heart of Perth, where a unique blend of nature, history, and modern lifestyle awaits. Your guide will share interesting stories and insights into the city’s unique charm, stopping by a mix of iconic landmarks and local secrets, including: ✔ Perth Mint: Where you’ll step back in time to learn about the region’s golden history. Enjoy a guided tour of the Mint’s heritage building, witness a live gold pour, and marvel at the world’s largest gold coin—the one-tonne Australian Kangaroo Gold Coin. ✔ The Bell Tower: Experience a 30-minute Bell Chiming session, and discover the history behind the 18 bells, including a set from St. Martin-in-the-Fields in London. Enjoy panoramic views of Perth from the observation deck, and take home a Bell Chiming Certificate as a souvenir. ✔ Kings Park & Botanic Garden: One of the world’s largest inner-city parks. Perched atop Mount Eliza, it offers spectacular views of the city and Swan River. Enjoy a stroll through the lush native bushland and beautifully manicured gardens. The return journey takes you along the picturesque southern foreshore of the Swan River, offering stunning views of Perth’s skyline. You’ll be dropped off either at the Fremantle Cruise Ship Terminal or at the Fremantle Visitor Centre, where you can explore this historic port town at your leisure before returning to the ship.  Optional Perth Mint Personalised Medallions: Make your tour even more memorable with a Perth Mint Personalised Medallion– a thoughtful and lasting keepsake for special occasions such as anniversaries, birthdays, or as a heartfelt token of appreciation. Medallions are perfect for commemorating a special moment, and each is custom-inscribed with your message.
