Awesome bell ringing experience - Totally awesome experience. Loved learning how to ring a bell. They are extremely heavy. My favorite thing was seeing the Anzac 100 year commemoration bell and seeing/ hearing it ring.

Wonderful experience! - Howard gave an excellent tour! It was very knowledgeable and engaging and happy to answer any and all questions from the group. We all got a turn to have a go at chiming the bells and each received a certificate as well. If you time the visit right, you also get to see the ANZAC bell in action at midday! Overall, a lovely visit, with a wonderful view of the surrounds.

An interesting experience with opportunity to ring a bell. - A very interesting tour explaining the history of the bells and the erection of the tower. We were able to actually chime the bells after a brief lesson on how to pull the ropes. Then walked up to 6th floor for great views of Perth, walking down to see the Anzac Bell and watching it ring at 12 noon.
