When you have just 24 hours in Perth, it’s easy to take the taxi to your hotel, dump your bags, grab some food at the hotel restaurant and sleep until you have to leave. Thanks to the excellent public transport, you can travel a lot of ground even with just 24 hours in Perth. Here are five options for things to do during your visit.

Couple your tour with the Twilight Outdoor Cinema to enjoy a night under the stars with a picnic blanket and film during your 24 hours in Perth.

If you like hiking, try the steep walking path from the Swan River and take in the views from the top. Those who are interested in the park’s flora and fauna will not want to miss seeing many of the 2,000 different species of plants on view in the 17-hectare Botanic Gardens.
