Discover the best things to do in Perth
Looking for exciting excursions? Here are our picks for the best things to do in Perth, from relaxing river cruises to shopping in one of Perth’s bustling suburbs.
The Swan River
Explore the Swan River’s Aboriginal heritage by boat during your stay in Perth! With over 28 kilometres of river shore, the Swan River comprises Bayswater, Belmont, and Bassendean. Take a 2-5 hour cruise from Perth to Fremantle and back, and bask in breathtaking views of the picturesque waters. On your voyage, you can gape at some of Australia’s most exclusive properties and private yachts dotted along the northern banks. Feel like a workout? Why not walk or cycle the trails beside the river rather than go by boat? Both are great ways to explore Perth and would make a delightful excursion!
