Discover Rottnest with Coach from Perth PM

Spend the afternoon exploring Rottnest Island, Perth’s much-loved coastal escape just offshore in the Indian Ocean. After a fast ferry ride from Perth or Fremantle, settle in for a 1.5-hour guided coach tour that gives you a great first look at the island’s highlights, from the rugged West End to the historic Wadjemup Lighthouse.

With your guide sharing stories along the way, you’ll get a feel for Rottnest’s landscape, history and easygoing island rhythm before enjoying free time to wander at your own pace. Stroll along the car-free streets, find a quiet bay, or simply soak up the sea air and the bright blue water. If you’d like to make the day even easier, you can add lunch when booking. Arrive a little early for the ferry and you’re set for a smooth, relaxed island escape.

Know before you go: - Please arrive at the ferry terminal at least 20 minutes before departure for smooth boarding. - This tour visits Rottnest Island, which is car-free, so expect to explore on foot during your free time. - Comfortable walking shoes are a good idea for wandering around the island after your coach tour. - Bring sun protection, water, and a hat, especially if you plan to spend time outside in the afternoon. - If you want lunch included, be sure to select the upgrade when booking. - Check your ferry departure point carefully, as you can travel from either Perth or Fremantle depending on your preference.
