    Anywhere except Rosie O'Gradys. If they wanted to be in a kip full of Irish people they'd be still at home.

    Go to Kings Park, Fremantle and Little Creatures during the day, Scarborough beach, Caversham Wildlife Park in the Swan Valley, Hillarys Boat Harbour and maybe the casino.

    I assume they didnt come to perth to see irish pubs. i agree with xavi6 apart from the casino.....take them places they'll remember when they get home.

    As someone who was a tourist there once, I'd say Fremantle, Rottnest Island (for a full day), Swan Valley. You can take a cruise down to Freo from the city center and they'll see a fair bit of nice property on the way down the river.

    Point Walter is a great spot for a picnic too iirc.

    If they've never been to a casino, then take them to Burswood. I was never at one before that, probably will never go to one again, but it was a fun night out.

    The Zoo is pretty cool too!

    Freemantle prison tours are excellent

    ^^^

    Yep the prison tour is awesome, especially the night one.

    Also, I found the zoo very poor and that's why I suggested Caversham which I've been to five or six times.

    Don't take them to the casino anyway. I lost my ring there last Saturday night... :(

    As a tourist there once upon a time I would say , Freo, Freo, Freo. I LOVED Fremantle, couldn't get enough of the place.
    The prison was well worth it, Rottnest / "Rotto" was good too. I didn't think much of Hilary's at all. Not sure what I was supposed to be looking at apart from expensive boats???
    Kings Park.
    If you had a car, I would defo drive the few hours up to the Pinnacles in Cervantes. I thought it was a fantastic experience. I went up there on my own for sunset. There were only 3 other people there, and it was a special thing to me anyways, and not so far from the city, but you are in the middle of nowhere....
