Yes, on a full port day. Ships for Perth berth at the Fremantle Passenger Terminal on Victoria Quay, about 20-25 km from Perth city centre. Walk 10-15 minutes to Fremantle station and take the Transperth Fremantle line to Perth station, around 30-35 minutes, then walk to Spanda on Elizabeth Quay, where our scavenger hunt starts. Allow roughly an hour each way. The hunt takes about 3 hours, so it fits if you head to the train promptly.

Tips for Perth when time is short
- Allow roughly an hour each way between the ship and central Perth: the walk to Fremantle station, the wait, the train and the walk in the city.
- Shuttle and train times change: check the day's arrangements and the last train back before you leave the ship.
- Perth summers are hot and sunny, so carry water and sun protection for a 3-hour outdoor game.
- If your port day turns out shorter than planned, Fremantle town centre is only about 15 minutes' walk from the terminal, and a free shuttle to Kings Square runs on some calls.
Why a self-guided game works on a port day
- You start when you step off the ship, not at a fixed tour time, and nobody waits for a group.
- Everyone in your party can follow on their own phone with one booking reference.
- You can stop for lunch or a swim and carry on later, and end the game whenever you need to head back.
- Google Maps guides you from stop to stop, and the game needs no entry tickets.
Perth cruise stop: questions

How do I get from the Fremantle cruise terminal to Perth?

Can I walk into Fremantle from the cruise terminal?

How long do I need ashore for the Perth game?

Do I need to book a time slot?
