Perth - The Gateway

Perth and Surrounds

Perth is the gateway city for most visitors to Western Australia, set on the banks of the broad Swan River. This modern city is often described as the most isolated city of its size in the Western World. A fun city where the Mediterranean climate allows for plenty of outdoor activities.

The whole region around Perth has been likened to one big holiday resort with so many attractions, great climate, miles of clean beaches and waterways, theatre, fine dining and sports of every kind and accommodation to suit every budget. A World class Casino and entertainment complex right in the heart of the city, tours, cruises, self-drive options and a year round programme of special events.
