Need suggestion on itineraries for Perth family holiday.? |
Travel Info Hi, planning a holiday to Perth during first week of June with family (kids 13 & 11). Will be visiting for 9 days. Will be self driving. Need suggestion/guide on itineraries for 9 days for Perth and surrounding areas where we can self drive. All answers a highly appreciated in Advance. Cheers. Traveler 101 Travel Tips Hi, since you have a car, a favorite destination is the SouthWest: First stop in Mandurah (1 hour away) and enjoy the waterfront. Busselton (just over 2 hours): the Jetty is great and the Underwater Observatory is where you get to see the sealife without getting wet Another half hour away is the area surrounding Dunsborough & Margaret River for beaches, Canal Rocks, the bush, horse rides, etc. Maybe you can park the kids a while and go on a wine-tasting tour, if you enjoy that sort of thing of course! Closer to Perth, Fremantle has great attractions (the Markets, the Jail , the Maritime Museum. North of Perth is Hillarys Boat Harbour, apart from strolling the boardwalk shops, visiting AQWA (underwater clear acrylic tunnel where sharks and sting rays swim over your head), you can catch a ferry to Rottnest Island for a relaxing day of cycling, swimming and snorkeling. Oops, just read that you are coming in June! but depending on where you come from, you might find the ocean still warm enough ( lots still swim) Have a great time! Source(s): a local Other Travel Tips well where are you coming from? I live in perth and give you my favourite places. kings park, nice scenic park overlooking the swan river and the city. great for a picnic The maratime museum in freo and the fremantle prison, they have night time tours that are quite exciting.. I just realised that living here doesn't make it easy to answer! try these http://www.australianexplorer.com/touris... http://www.tripadvisor.com/tourism-g2551... http://www.freofocus.com/gettingaround/t... Within Perth and the suburbs there are plenty of things to do like bowling, skating, movies etc, however there are also many nice places to visit that are not so commercial! Try Hillarys Marina, also known as Sorrento Quay, for a relaxing day of seaside entertainment, plenty of eating places, shops, and a mini golf park etc. Adjacent to the marina is Aqwa, which is the aquarium of WA, very interesting and well worth a look. Whiteman Park is north east of perth, about 30 mins from city centre, and is a massive park filled with things to do for everyone, walks, bike riding, train and tram rides, an auto museum, wildlife park and a lot more. Its a beautiful place at any time of the year. Try visiting Scitech, which is a science activity centre for kids of all ages, including their parents. Full of interactive displays and scientific experiments to try. I hope this has been helpful! |
