The Perth Experience
NZ Rugby World|Issue 199, April - May, 2019

See more of Perth and go beyond its urban cool – choose your day trip in the city, on the coast or in country.

The Perth Experience

At the helm of Bledisloe Cup hitting the shores of the west coast of Australia, the city of Perth and its surrounding regions boasts a plethora of experiences ready to be encountered and consumed. You can experience the locals’ life and loves in a number of days with some of Perth’s best and unique experiences within an hours’ drive from the city centre.

CITY LIVING, SIDE BY SIDE WITH NATURAL LANDSCAPES

If you’re not sure where to start your sightseeing adventures, then a visit to Kings Park is a great starting point. From its elevated vantage point, be blown away by awesome city views and a perspective of the Swan River like no other.

A new forward-thinking perspective on the city’s developments and economic growth has given Perth City a boost of cultural confidence, making its mark on the city skyline and on other aspects of urban life. Enjoy river cruises, Segway, walking and bar hop tours and explore new and trusted food and dining precincts adding to the vibrancy of the capital city.

Stepping on to the back streets of Perth, you’ll soon discover the hidden haunts and laneways brimming with small bars, cafes and an emerging craft beer scene. Little Creatures, Feral Brewing Co., and Gage Roads are well-known brands, but there’s also the unassuming like Mash, Nail, and Last Drop available at a few establishments in town and that are not to be dismissed from the bar menu.
