Perth

Things to do

Perth is a beautiful, laidback city with plenty to offer the travelling family, friends or couples. Visit the museums or art galleries sprawled across the city, such as the Art Gallery of Western Australia. Or take a small road-trip further south to Fremantle and visit the Maritime Museum and old Fremantle Gaol. For the thrill seekers you may want to head to Adventure World to cool off or go to The Orchard Perth for some photo worthy shots and a bite to eat. If you’re a bit of a green thumb, check out the array of gardens Perth has to offer. In the city you can relax at Kings Park, a 400 hectare park with over 3,000 species of flora. Or drive into the hills and discover Araluen Botanic Park, the oldest botanic park in the Perth Hills sprawling across 59 hectares and in spring time you can see the 150,000 tulips bloom.

Family accommodation

In the city centre, Adina Apartment Hotel offers plenty of space and activities for families plus a full kitchen. If you prefer to wake up with a view of the city, stay at Quest South Perth just over the river. There's plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby and a playground too for the kids.

Family events
