Itinerary
If you'd like, hop on and hop off, or stay on board for the entire two-hour circle. How you use your ticket is entirely up to you. We truly don't mind if you choose to spend the entire day on the bus!
The moment you step onto the bus is when time begins. Simply present your ticket voucher—either printed or on your tablet or smartphone - to the bus driver. When the bus arrives, get aboard at any stop, any time. There are fifteen stops located throughout Kings Park and the city.
See the Town Hall's architecture, the Museum of Western Australia, the Perth Cultural Centre, or the Heath Ledger Theatre—named for the late actor. Go to King's Park for a breathtaking perspective of the city and the Swan River, or explore the Botanic Gardens, which are home to more than 3,000 different plant varieties.
Depending on what you want to see in Perth, choose the 24- or 48-hour option when making your reservation. A complete tour loop takes around two hours, and you can choose to enhance your trip with a tram tour of the old port city or a Swan Riverboat excursion to Fremantle.
