The Hop–On Hop-Off City Explorer Tour takes guests on an extensive trip through Kings Park and allows unlimited hop on and hop off access at any of the stops through Kings Park and the Perth city centre including shopping areas, The Perth Mint, Swan Bell Tower, The Perth Zoo, Harbour Town, Art Gallery, Museum and Burswood Entertainment Complex. The drivers provide a live commentary along the way. Your ticket is valid for two consecutive days on both the bus and tram so it is great value for money and the perfect way to see a lot in a small amount of time if your stay is short.

“Hop on hop off bus”

Reviewed 30 April 2012

The tram company tour has stopped in Perth and the substitute is the Perth sightseeing hop on hop off bus. WE took this trip on 27 April 2012 and found it excellent. The commentary was informative and we saw some interesting places for a return visit. Recommended. More

“If time is pressing this tour gives you a good overview of Perth”

Reviewed 11 January 2012

We were on an 8 hour stopover in Perth and wanted an overview of the city. This tour did just that. We were impressed with the Kings Park part of the tour in particular and also in the drivers knowledge of the native plants - all which were glorious to see. The Boab tree i an iconic WA plant (think... More

“Just a vehicle with hop on/off but expensive ticket”

Reviewed 28 November 2011

person found this review helpful

We got free tram ticket after booking one of the hotels in the CBD. The tram ticket is rather expensive. However you can hop on/off the tram at any assigned stops that you like. The speed of tram is rather fast as probably it want to meet the scheduled time so you can't really got chance to see clearly the... More

Dear Feltroneu Lovely to hear from you. Yes, Kings Park is certainly one of the must see destinations in Perth and I am pleased you found the drivers commentary about Perth's sights helpful! It sounds like your *free* ticket was part of a package which entitled you to 1 day complimentary travel on the tram. This is an exclusive arrangement... More

“A fantastic way to see and learn about the city of Perth!”

How pleased we were that we chose this tour and how lucky we were to have such a fantastic tour guide - Ron (number 2). His knowledge, passion, energy and non stop presentation (not to mention his humor!) was truly the best we have ever experienced on an introductory tour of a city (and we have experienced many).

“Great Quick Way to See Perth CBD”

We booked the King's Park Trams tour online for A$27 per person (A$30 onboard), and had the pleasure of having Ron2 driving us around the city & King's Park. As we were the only passengers onboard, and traffic was all clear on a Saturday morning, we got off a few times at King's Park for some pictures. The ticket is... More

“Bouncy Trip”

Reviewed 1 October 2011

I was looking forward to this tour after reading the reviews, unfortunately it has changed somewhat from its advertised leaflets. You cannot take the Tram tour all the way around the city, instead the Tram does Kings Park and the top end of town to the Bell Tower. If you wish to do the other end of town you need... More
