Perth Vacations


  • The Perth skyline from Kings Park is a great viewing area and a must inclusion for all Australia vacations.

Perth, capital of Western Australia, is Australia’s fourth largest city and is situated on the Swan River with its suburbs being located on the Indian Ocean. Although seemingly cut off from the rest of Australia, it has an easy-going, friendly and relaxed atmosphere and for those travellers with some extra time one of our Perth tours is a great addition on an Australia vacation.

It is the sunniest state capital and enjoys glorious sunny weather most of the year. This might explain the reason for the reputation of its beaches, 19 in total, all beautifully clean and uncrowded. Perth has been likened to a picture postcard.

A visit to Kings Park with its botanical garden will impress as it is larger than Central Park in New York. It is made up of not only sculpted gardens but also natural bushland.

You can take a cruise along the Swan River and view the surrounding parks and skyscrapers then discover Swan Valley and the Perth Zoo on Perth tours.

Nearby Rottnest Island is an excellent scuba diving centre and Rockingham is known for snorkeling and dolphins. Historic Fremantle is Perth’s oldest port where you can sample fresh seafood.

Nearby are Monkey Mia Resort in Shark Bay with its world famous bottlenose dolphins, Margaret River, a regional wine area and the Pinnacles Desert with its sand dunes and white sand beaches.

Perth is about as far away as you can travel. However if you have the time, one of our Perth tours is a great addition to your Australian tours . C’mon say G’day Downunder. Book one of our Australia vacations today and start exploring!
