Perth Tours & Day Trips
Private door-to-door day tours of Swan Valley wineries, Fremantle harbour and the Perth Hills — driven and guided by a 10-year-plus local.
A private taxi tour of Perth pairs the convenience of door-to-door pickup with a driver-guide who actually lives here, knows the cellar-door owners by name, and tailors the day to your group's pace. Three core itineraries — Swan Valley wine and food, Fremantle history and harbour, Perth Hills weir and wineries — plus fully custom days built around your interests. Sedans for couples, SUVs for families, 10-seater maxis for groups. Hotel, cruise-terminal or private address pickup; sunset return.

Swan Valley — Australia's oldest wine region 25 minutes from the CBD
The Swan Valley sits just 25 minutes north-east of Perth CBD and is Western Australia's oldest wine region — first vines planted in 1829. A typical 6-hour tour visits 5 cellar doors (Houghton, Sandalford, Lancaster, Olive Farm, Pinelli or Talijancich on rotation), a chocolate or honey producer, and lunch at a winery restaurant such as Mash Brewing or RiverBank Estate. The driver pre-arranges every tasting, holds your purchases in a cooler in the boot, and times the day so you finish at sunset back at your hotel.
- 5 cellar-door tastings pre-arranged
- Sit-down lunch at a winery restaurant
- Chocolate, nougat or honey producer stop
- Cooler in vehicle for purchases
- 25 min from CBD — short driving day
Fremantle — port history, Round House, harbour and markets
Fremantle is 30 minutes south-west of Perth CBD and packs Australia's best-preserved port architecture into a walkable kilometre. A 4-hour tour covers the Round House (1831, Australia's oldest public building), the WA Maritime Museum, Fremantle Prison (UNESCO World Heritage), the Fremantle Markets (Friday–Sunday), and a fish-and-chips lunch at the Fishing Boat Harbour. Cruise-ship passengers booking on a port-call day can extend to a 6-hour tour combining Fremantle and the Swan Valley.
Perth Hills — Mundaring Weir, Zig Zag Scenic Drive, Bickley wineries
The Darling Scarp rises 30 km east of Perth and the Hills tour shows Perth from above. Mundaring Weir (1903, supplies water 560 km to the goldfields), Zig Zag Scenic Drive (panoramic CBD-to-coast views), and Bickley Valley boutique wineries (Brookside, Lawnbrook, Hainault) make a relaxed 5-hour loop. Winter and spring add wildflower stops; summer adds a swimming hole at Lesmurdie Falls. Rugged dirt sections handled by SUV — sedans stay on sealed roads.
