Fremantle & Perth Orientation

OVERVIEW

Discover the charms of Fremantle and its vivacious twin city Perth through their historical architecture and idyllic parks on the meandering Swan River. The meticulous restoration of Fremantle’s Victorian and Edwardian architecture has helped to revitalize the downtown, where you will drive from one landmark to another. It’s the only UNESCO World Heritage site in Western Australia. You will also see the even older Round House, which has 12 sides and only looks round, and Burswood Park, where you will pause for photos before continuing on to Fremantle’s twin city of Perth. With the Darling Ranges as a natural backdrop and much of the city overlooking the river, it is beautiful setting. Perth’s prosperity is evident throughout, but especially along Millionaire’s Row, which you will pass on the way to King’s Park, a serene oasis where you will enjoy free time.
