Perth (Australia) Reviews

Perth is the city I've recenty spent about 3 months in. My review will of course be different to others, and that's because I always seem to have the craziest of experiences. I wonder has anyone else stayed at East Backpackers in room 7, next door to the Russian cleaner lady? One night (the walls are fake so we hear everything) she decided to ...  Read the complete review

Perth City, Australia. I kind of wished I was a member on here 5 years ago when I decided to travel to Aus for a year but its still all in my memory and Perth stands way way out, it is easily the best place I have ever visited in my life. I travelled out August 2004 and my flight was from Dublin to Perth via Kuala ...  Read the complete review

Perth, Western Australia. Where is Perth? Perth is the Capital city of the state of Western Australia which is physically about a third of the entire country of Australia but the population is small - only about 10% of the nation's population. This population of about 2 million most actually live in Perth ( 1.5 million) and the ...  Read the complete review

Following on from my Sydney in General Opinion, I thought I would expand the series to Perth, where I spent many, many months, living and working as we built a 400 position call centre from scratch, in the area of Joondalup. Thankfully, I had plenty of time at the weekends to explore the region, and taste the wine, which in my expert opinion is ...  Read the complete review

Well, people consider Australia as the lucky country. Beautiful weather, clean cities, nice people - so if you were to live anywhere in Australia, where would it be? I think it would be Perth. This is the fourth biggest city population wise in the country, and is the most secluded capital city on earth. When surveyed through a point ...  Read the complete review

I have read all the guides and listened to opinions of friends who had been to Perth, Western Australia before. No ones opinion can prepare you for the true experience. I’m an 18 year old and I went to stay with my uncle. I travelled with my mum and dad and my sister. I know it’s a bit sad at 18 going on holiday with your parents, ...  Read the complete review

Perth is the gateway to Fremantle, (the yacht racing harbour that everyone remembers). Perth has a wonderful skyline that can be perfect picture material from the other side of Swan River. There is a great big green in the middle of the town, kind of like a mini Central Park. (It might not smack bang in the middle). ...  Read the complete review

Perth comes very high on my list of favourite cities.
