Passeios por Swan River

Perth–Fremantle One-Way Cruise — 14 August 2026 We had a wonderful experience on the Perth–Fremantle one-way cruise on 14 August. Our group of four really enjoyed the relaxing journey, especially with the beautiful weather and stunning views along the Swan River. The cruise provided a lovely opportunity to sit back, enjoy the scenery and take plenty of photos while travelling between Perth and Fremantle. Everything was comfortable and well organised, and the journey felt like an experience in itself rather than simply a way of getting from one place to another. The pleasant weather made the trip even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for families, friends and anyone looking for a relaxing and scenic way to experience Perth and Fremantle.

Tim picked us up at Barrack Square Jetty Pier No 4 - which was clearly informed and fairly on time. The van was comfortable. He also provided bottled water. Loved the fact that Tim had worked in Caversham Wildlife Park before that the entire trip within was on spot on time and well prepared (hint: a bag of food pellets to feed the kangaroos and other animals). We had our lunch at Mandoon Estate where we opted for vegetarian food. Food was served quick and hot and delicious. Next we continued our journey to Margaret River Chocolate Company - Tim gave us some chocolates for free tasting, bought some as souvenirs. Later we were visited the Scarborough Beach which was amazing as the weather was very good as well. And we end our trip to Kings Park, stroll around, took a few memorable pics. Overall, this kinda group tour is expected to be a bit rushed, but served our objectives for the day.

We met at the meeting point in the morning, boarded the bus, and departed. Upon arriving at the Crown Hotel, we transferred to another bus, and the entire itinerary proceeded on schedule. The bus driver also served as our guide, providing thorough explanations. Although the tour itinerary stated drop-off at Barrack Street Jetty, the driver checked with everyone to find out where was closest to their accommodation and dropped them off there.

Swan Valley is such a beautiful place to slow down, enjoy the vineyard views, taste some good wine, and simply enjoy the moment.

Although we visited many places in one day, and I understand that everyone has different preferences and we couldn't stay longer at places I liked, I was mostly satisfied with the itinerary. The hotel pick-up was very convenient, lunch was delicious, and the location was great. On this day, we encountered a major storm in Southwest Australia, which happens once every five years. The car felt very unstable on the highway, but fortunately, our guide Cindy was experienced and completed the entire trip smoothly!

I took a cruise, chatted with people, drank some wine, and then went to a winery where I listened intently to explanations and drank a lot of wine. It would be great for wine lovers, and I really enjoyed having plenty of time.
