Tour of East Perth Cemeteries
Overview
Journey back in time through this tranquil and unique group of cemeteries dating to the 1830s, when Perth was first established. Situated high on a hill above the Swan River, these colonial cemeteries — and the people buried in them between 1830 and 1899 — tell the stories of our city and state across their first seventy years.
As the tour winds through the grounds you'll encounter the graves of notable members of the Swan River Colony alongside lesser-known people who lived extraordinary lives in extremely difficult circumstances: tales of murder, migration, adversity and involuntary transportation to one of the most remote places on Earth.
This tour is run in partnership with the National Trust of Australia (WA); $5 from every tour goes towards the conservation and management of the site. Not suitable for children under 16.

Where does my tour start, and how will I find the guide?
Every tour has a designated meeting point, shown on the tour page and in your booking confirmation. Your guide will be waiting in a bright red shirt — and they'll be looking out for you as much as you're looking for them.
Are bookings essential?
Yes. Book online for real-time availability — online bookings close 24 hours before departure. For last-minute spots, call us on 1800 459 388.
What is the cancellation policy?
Cancellations less than 24 hours before travel are charged 100% of the booking as a cancellation fee.

What if I'm running late?
Please arrive 10 minutes early. Tours depart on time, and once underway our guides switch their phones off — catching up to a departed tour is difficult, if not impossible.
