My daughter recently had the idea to be a tourist in her own city, so I took her and 3 friends on this open-top double-decker tourist bus around Perth CBD. There are 2 buses that make the route everyday so you are never more than an hour from the next one, and you can hop off and on at any of the stops. The stops were pretty basic -- several in Kings Park, Barrack St Jetty, the Mint, Cultural Plaza, Harbourtown, the Crowne Casino, the CBD shopping area -- but in order to get an overview of the city it was a pleasant way to get around and the stops are all clearly marked. The tour info is all on audio, which was sometimes hard to hear, but what I did hear was informative and interesting. The price is fairly reasonable and it was a fun way to spend the day. There is another bus that goes through Fremantle and I may try that one too.

Approximate cost: $approx $30 adults, $12 kids
