“Great tour! Found out about a lot of history that isn't taught in schools! Ryan was a great bloke, very friendly and knew his stuff! Would highly recommend this tour through Fremantle for tourists and locals who want to know more about the history or Fremantle and Perth. Loved the stop off at the chocolate shop!”

Overview

Two Feet & a Heartbeat delivers curriculum-compliant school excursions through professionally guided walking tours in Perth and Fremantle. Each experience is tailored for primary, secondary and tertiary groups and aligned with the Western Australian Curriculum (SCSA) and ACARA HASS learning outcomes — with explicit alignment to ACARA codes by year level and a full curriculum mapping document supplied.

Developed in consultation with the National Trust of Australia (WA) and a former headmaster with over 55 years of experience, these excursions immerse students in the local environment, heritage and civic identity via the main streets, laneways, parks and heritage spaces — engaging, fun and genuinely educational.

Pricing is $15–$20 per student. Tell us your year level, subject focus and preferred date, and we'll tailor the excursion to your unit of work.

Meeting point

Designated meeting point (confirmed at booking)

Perth CBD or Fremantle. Exact location in your booking confirmation

Scavenger hunts, school excursions and private events start wherever suits your group: your own hotel, office or a landmark you pick. The exact spot is confirmed in your booking confirmation. If you have no preference we default to the undercover area in front of the main doors of Perth Town Hall. School excursions start where the bus can set down, usually the Cultural Centre or Bell Tower. Your guide will be waiting in a bright red shirt and will be on the lookout for you as much as you are looking for them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Explore tour specifics, booking steps, and prep tips to ensure a seamless experience.

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. With more than 24 hours' notice you can change your tour date (subject to availability) or receive a full refund on retail tours. If Two Feet has to cancel a tour, prior payments are fully refunded (excluding third-party booking fees). Private, corporate and group bookings have their own cancellation terms to protect your exclusive experience, and gift certificates are not refundable.

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.
