Subiaco
1.9 miles from city centre
“Subi” is a classy place. Affluence is writ large here, with its well-heeled residents, the snazzy townhouses and a glut of gourmet restaurants. Start your day with a nutrient-rich brunch at Health Freak Café and pick out a shiny bauble in Rokeby Road’s jewellers. Then slum it with the Aussie Rules fans for a game at the Subiaco Oval!

West Perth
0.8 miles from city centre
The West isn’t that wild after all. Quiet West Perth is home to young professionals who commute into the city. You’ll see them pushing new-fangled prams or zooming towards Kings Park in a blur of logoed lycra. Tap into the contentment with a trip to Harbour Town Shopping Centre. Then head to Perth Observatory to contemplate the cosmos.

Perth CBD
In the city centre
Money makes the world go round. And Perth’s “CBD” does its bit to keep the whole thing spinning. The city’s commercial capital is a whirl of taxi horns, suits and the “ker-ching” of cash registers. Splash your cash on King Street before sampling award-winning cakes at Jean Pierre Sancho. Cap it off with a cocktail at lofty rooftop bar The Aviary.

Cottesloe
6.8 miles from city centre
Cottesloe’s all about fun in the sun. With bodyboarding, beach cricket and good old sunbathing, “Cott Beach” is Perth’s go-to spot for seaside frolics. Set your alarm early and grab breakfast at Vans Café (pancakes with honeycomb butter are their speciality!). Stay till dusk to catch picture-postcard sunsets over the Indian Ocean. You little ripper!

North Perth
1.5 miles from city centre
North Perth is distinctly Mediterranean. Decades ago, a fair few Greeks and Italians migrated south to set up shop here, as joints like Maurizio or Metrio & Co will attest. It’s a quiet, safe suburb where you’ll see uniformed schoolkids scampering down tree-lined streets. For a grade-A tipple, head to The Classroom Bar. School’s out!

Leederville
1.6 miles from city centre
Leederville’s a place to let your hair down. Its mix of cutesy cafés, quality restaurants and quirky knick-knackeries will keep you busy from 9 to 5. Grab a caffeinated cuppa from Foam Coffee Bar before nibbling on passion-fruit cheesecake at Greens & Co. Come sundown, “Leedy” keeps the party going at joints like HipE Club and Niche. Rock on!

Nature and urban life coexist harmoniously in Perth, the capital of Western Australia. This is where the winding Swan River flows into the southern Indian Ocean, past steel-clad skyscrapers, lively waterfronts and pristine parkland – all under a relentless canopy of clear blue sky.
Kings Park – a huge green space spanning four square kilometres – sits at the city’s heart, containing giant white-trunked trees, botanical gardens and the State War Memorial which overlooks the river, named after its black swans. Across the river, Perth Zoo is home to more native animals such as koalas, crocodiles and free-roaming kangaroos.
Perth’s main draw is its surrounding natural beauty. From the flower-filled bushlands and the lush Swan Valley wine region, to golden sandy stretches like Cottesloe Beach and Trigg Beach, there are numerous landscapes to escape to.
Just offshore from Perth is Rottnest Island, a protected nature reserve that's home to white-sand beaches, secluded coves and wildlife including the quokka – a small wallaby-like marsupial. The island is also popular with surfers who come to ride the breaks of Strickland Bay. Spend a day or two by taking the ferry from the port town of Fremantle, known for its Maritime Museum and 19th-century prison.
Back in Perth, you can find hip boutiques, galleries, pubs and an array of laid-back restaurants in the Northbridge area.

There is a general opinion that Perth is the most isolated city in the world. Maybe geographically, but one doesn't feel that because Perth is a vibrant city, with a selection of great shops, wonderful restaurants, cafes and bars and the views to die for! There is so much to do for any visitor and a short drive away will take you to some spectacular nature phenomenon. The beaches all around Perth can compete with the best in the world, and all of them offer great eateries in the neighbourhood. The public transport is great and free within the city. A double-decker tourist bus is a great start to the trip and recommended.

Obviously as the State captial, central to all events and tourist sites. Clean and relatively small in comparison to state captials around Australia. A good starting point for visits to Western Australia.

There are lots of things to enjoy in Perth. We enjoyed our experience at the Bell Tower becoming amateur bell ringers on the tour. The Perth Mint was very interesting especially watching the Gold pour. The WA Museum and Art Gallery were well worth the visit as was the tour of St. Mary's Cathedral. A big highlight was visiting Kings Park Botanic Gardens. It is a very beautiful place with spectacular views. The tour to Rottnest Island was great We enjoyed learning about its importance during WW2 seeing the huge cannon. The train ride was fun too. Our trip to the Margaret River area was full of interest. We enjoyed visiting Busselton Jetty, Mammoth Cave and Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse among other things. Fremantle was only thirty minutes from Perth on the train. Visiting Freemantle Prison was excellent especially the Tunnel Tour. There were lots of quirky shops to visit and places to eat along the main street. There were lots of other tours and places we could have visited in Perth and its surroundings but we only had a week. We packed a lot in and had a fabulous holiday.
Clean city with plenty to offer all.

Clean city with plenty to offer all. Greenery with some beautiful trees and kings park is a must for a view of the city and river. From the metro south a short drive or walkable if you’re a bit fitter, there is a lovely ferry into the city.
