Awesome walking tour, highly recommend - We did the Discover Perth Walking Tour with Alex. She was AMAZING!!! Perfectly paced with just the right amount of everything. Alex covered everything from history, street art, indigenous culture, fun facts/stories and her love for Perth. Alex was great about answering any and all questions. She also offered great hints and suggestions for activities and eateries. This is a perfect tour for anyone!! It is just the right length, so you don't get tour fatigue and the distance covered is not excessive. So the tour is accessible for most. We highly recommend this tour company and guide.

Five out of five - Super to learn more about the local art and history of Perth. Lucy was helpful and knowledgeable. She was careful to keep us out of the intense sun as much as possible while still walking around the signs of Perth.
