Trips to Perth
Feel free to contact us and let’s start planning together!
A tour operator you can trust. 5 week tour of New Zealand and Australia, everything went as agreed and as stated in the itinerary. Great job Asko and Project tours. Really professional operation and service
A very well-organized trip to Australia and New Zealand. Thank you!
The concept worked perfectly for us:Peaceful vacation: We appreciated that it wasn’t a group trip. We were able to explore the destinations at our own pace, but the schedule and advance reservations gave the trip a clear framework.Reservations in order: All hotel and tour reservations worked flawlessly in principle.Safety net: When there were twists and turns along the way – such as flight cancellations – the office handled the situations for us nicely. It was relaxing to know that someone else would take care of the logistics if the original plan changed.
A 2-week tour of Australia tailored for us. Interesting destinations and good hotels. Exceptions to the planned program were handled very well. I highly recommend!
The trip went well. The destinations were interesting and the transportation was handled as planned. I definitely recommend this trip organizer.
Asko listened to our wishes and tailored the package to our needs. Highly recommended!
We had a wonderful 4,5 week tour across Australia and Project Matka made excellent job planning the trip and made all needed reservations including all travel, accommodation and activities. The schedule and all activities were really well planned and we saw a lot of Australia, its nature and animals and the culture during our trip. We absolutely loved our trip!
Big thanks to Asko and Project travel! I was on a 3-week vacation in Australia. All the details were carefully and carefully planned and thought out. The trip went without a hitch. I got to see amazing places and have new experiences. Super thanks. I can warmly recommend Asko and Project travel!
Many thanks to Asko and Project Matka. A wonderfully planned and executed three-week trip to Australia, during which we got to explore great city destinations and above all, wonderful nature, from rainforests to fabulously beautiful sandy beaches and, as the cherry on the cake, snorkeling on the reef. The arrangements were really well made. With the written and verbal instructions from Asko, it was easy and safe for even the most relaxed traveler to travel. I recommend Project Matka, with their help you can tailor a trip to your own preferences.
I can really recommend Projekt Matka. They planned a memorable New Zealand and Australia tour for me, everything went smoothly. Asko was always available quickly when I needed advice or directions. A well thought out trip!

It's the little details like these that make all the difference.Moreover, the communication with Project Matka was superb. Asko and his team made sure we felt like we were in exceptionally good hands throughout our entire journey.

If you are considering a trip to Australia and/or New Zealand don’t hesitate to use Project Matka. We are experienced travelers and never used an agent prior to this trip. Project Matka not only listened to our wants, preferences, style, likes and dislikes, but provided guidance and suggestions we hadn’t consider. Our final itinerary not only met but exceeded our expectations. The cities, hotels, tours which was a combination of self guided, private and semi-private tours was seamless and absolutely perfect. We spent 30 days between the two countries and it was a trip of a lifetime primarily due to the support we got for Project Matka.
Asko Project Matka helped me plan and implement a wonderful holiday in Melbourne. However, in a relatively short time I managed to see a lot. Thanks to the useful tips I received from Asko. His local knowledge of Melbourne is in a class of its own. I can warmly recommend Project Matka if you are looking for a holiday in Australia!
A thousand thanks to Asko and Project Matka for the absolutely fantastic arrangements for our trip to central Australia. Everything went perfectly, and the experiences were one after the other. We asked for an active itinerary with hiking in stunning landscapes as the main focus, and that's what we definitely got. Other highlights included dinner under the stars, a camel ride at sunrise, and the light art installation Field of Lights. Warm recommendation to Asko and the Project Matka team.
Enjoy (almost) guaranteed good weather in Perth
Perth, the capital of Western Australia with a population of over two million, is known for its sandy beaches, modern architecture and numerous green spaces. Its warm climate beckons visitors all year round, and it is said that Perth has more sunny days per year than any other Australian city. Because Perth is far from other major cities, it is also less crowded than other cities.
There’s plenty to see and do to suit all tastes on a trip to Perth, and you’ll find a variety of activities for your visit, from shopping in the modern city centre to traditional beach activities. You’ll also find interesting art galleries, small brewery restaurants and impressive street art. Just outside the city, you’ll find sandy beaches, wineries and stunning Australian nature.
The city lies on the Swan River, and a river cruise is an activity not to be missed in Perth. For example, you can take a ferry from the city centre to the Fremantle area or to the wineries of the Swan Valley. There are also other beautiful places nearby that are sure to make your visit a wonderful experience.

Beaches and activities galore in Perth
Perth is famous for its many beaches. The beaches are not right in the city centre, but are only a 20-minute drive away. The beaches are popular all year round, with Cottesloe Beach and City Beach being easy destinations to visit for beautiful sunsets.
For a picnic spot, visit Kings Park, one of the largest city centre parks in the world at over 400 hectares.
Sport and culture in Perth
Sports fans will also find something to do on their trip to Perth, where you can watch Australian football or cricket at the Optus Stadium. This 60 000-seat stadium is one of Perth’s greatest prides. There are also guided tours of the stadium, and on the Matagarup Bridge near the stadium, you can climb the top of the bridge or even slide down the zip line.
The Art Gallery of Western Australia is located in the Perth Cultural Centre, which also houses the state’s national library and theatres. There you can explore a wide range of Aboriginal art and other works of art. Museum visits are free.
Shopper’s Perth
On the Murray Street promenade you can easily find large department stores such as Myer and David Jones, as well as many international brand stores. Just a few blocks away, King Street is known for its historic buildings and many design and fashion shops.
On your trip to Perth, you’ll also find several grocery stores in the downtown area. Coles and Woolworths are Australia’s largest grocery chains. There are many smaller Woolworths Metro stores around the city.
Excursions from Perth to nearby areas
Beach lovers should head to the Margaret River area as part of a trip to Perth. It’s about 300 kilometres from Perth, but it’s well worth the drive, as the Margaret River is home to some of Australia’s most best vineyards as well as stunning beaches. As well as winery visits, you can also explore limestone caves, spot whales, relax on a yoga retreat or try surfing.
From Perth, it’s possible to do a one-day trip to the Margaret River, but be aware that it will be a long day: leaving early in the morning and returning late in the evening.
If you want to see the beautiful green scenery from the skies on your Perth trip, head to the Avon Valley for a hot air balloon flight over the historic city.
On Rottnest Island you can see happy quokkas
Rottnest Island is only about a 30-minute ferry ride from Perth, making it an easy day trip. The island is a nature reserve and therefore there are a limited number of cars on the island. You can hire a bike or explore the island on foot. Alternatively, group tours are available in the form of Segway rides. With a staggering 63 beaches, you’re sure to find one to your liking.
The island of Rottnest is known above all for its cute quokka marsupials. Quokka are very friendly and curious animals, and photographing them is certainly the most popular activity on the island. There is also plenty to do on the island, where you can go whale watching, snorkelling, diving, kayaking or enjoy a delicious lunch.
Public transport in Perth
Perth has an extensive public transport network, with convenient access to trains, ferries and buses. Trains and CAT buses are free in the city centre. Also note that the central area only covers the CBD and for trains you need a SmartRider card.
The SmartRider card is the easiest way to get around Perth, with a rechargeable card costing $10 but containing the same value. You can buy the card at bus or train stations, as well as at the airport Smart Carte kiosk and many kiosks or shops around the city. The card can be used on all public transport in Perth.
Single tickets for public transport are available from stations and ticket machines.
