Triple Tour

Start your Triple Tour on the Fremantle Tram Tour. You’ll have time to venture around all of the best spots in Fremantle before heading outside the city for a unique experience. Transfer from the tram to the Swan River Cruise for the second leg of the tour. Cruise along Swan River where you’ll witness the more affluent side of Fremantle. You’ll pass multi-million dollar houses on either side, so you don’t have to be picky where you sit on the boat. The panoramic view of Perth greets you as you dock at the Elizabeth Quay. Choose your favourite restaurant at the quay to spend lunch. Welcome to Perth.

The Perth Explorer Open Top Bus awaits you to take you on a loop of the metropolis. You’ll have a great vantage point of the city while you ride on the elevated bus.

Ghostly Tour w/Dinner

When the night falls on Fremantle, the dark history of the city will be revealed on the Ghostly Tour. Hop on the tram tour held every Friday night beginning at the Fremantle Town Hall. Stay close to the group as you arrive at some of Fremantle’s oldest buildings and cemeteries.

The unique tour takes you up close and personal with landmarks that many wouldn’t dare hang around in the night hours. Hear the cries of tortured prisoners at The Roundhouse and the Fremantle Prison. The Fremantle Arts Centre, by day, was once an old asylum, with the dark energy still lingering in the atmosphere. The final destination on the tour, and hopefully not yours, is the Fremantle Cemetery. Walk among the tombs of deceased prisoners buried on these grounds.

Be sure to keep an eye out for any ghosts on the Ghostly Tour, as they won’t be far. If fear hasn’t taken you over, you’ll be treated to dinner during the tour. Trams are converted into dining carts where fish and chips are served along with drinks. Age restrictions apply to the tour so leave the young and afraid in your hotel.
