Australia · PERTH TOURS
Perth is the jumping-off point for Rottnest, the Swan Valley and the Pinnacles, and each is a different kind of day. The 15 here compare the ferries, the wine buses and the desert runs on price, length and how early they leave.
Rottnest Island day trip with return ferries from Perth or Fremantle, plus an air-conditioned live bus tour to quokka spots and top lookouts.
“We loved this tour to Rottnest Island from Perth. The Island bus tour was well worth including. Our guide was Barney, he was amazing! We loved seeing the Quokkas”
Watch the Pinnacles turn gold, sandboard at Lancelin, then eat BBQ and stargaze with telescopes from Perth.
“Go with the flow. Stopped at a very good pub for those who didn’t want to do the sand boarding, good views”
Ferry from Fremantle plus bike hire for a flexible Rottnest Island day, with helmet and admission, quokkas, and swims.
“Rottnest is a beautiful island with lots to see and do. Bike hire is great to get around. I’m not very fit but managed to get around ok, some of the hills were very steep but you just stop and take in the scenery. The quokkas were very cute. Had a nice lunch at one of the hotels. Some of the beaches were very busy- salmon bay was the nicest. I think $120 is a lot of money for a 30 min ferry ride however the island was beautiful and must be done while in Perth.”
Pinnacles at sunset, ocean-and-desert scenic stops, then telescope stargazing plus a picnic dinner with sparkling wine in Western Australia.
“We were with Erin our guide who was brilliant! We went on the 27th January which was my husband’s birthday. Erin worked very hard to make the day fabulous - and it certainly was! We loved everything! Thank you, Erin.”
Ferry and coach day trip to Rottnest Island from Fremantle or Perth, with quokka spotting, lighthouse stops, and free afternoon time.
“A trip you shouldn’t miss when visiting Perth! We absolutely loved the biking activity at Rottnest Island — it was the highlight of our day! We only wish we had more time to explore because the island is incredibly beautiful. The bus tour is also worth doing on your first visit since it gives a great overview of the island, but next time we’re definitely going straight to biking and swimming. November was a great time to visit — a bit hot, but perfect for swimming and enjoying the beaches. ☀️🚲🌊”

A full-day Swan Valley food and wine trip from Perth with multiple tastings, a gourmet lunch, cheese and chocolates, plus beer.

Perth to Rottnest Island by fast ferry, then explore solo on an included bike. Quokkas, beaches, and a full day outdoors.
“My sister, visiting from the UK, loved the unspoiled beauty of the island and the respect ofr it's flora and fauna. She recognised the good management of the island's transport and also its waste management processes. We were very limited with time so only skimmed the surface, however the whole day, including lunch, was excellent. Just sorry we missed the museum as we got back from our bike ride after it had closed - I'm sure it would have been exceptional to experience more of the island's history.”
See a one-tonne gold coin, handle bullion, and watch molten gold pour into a bar on a guided Perth Mint tour in about an hour.
