Hey, I am going there too from 16-Apr to 23-Apr, 7 days free and
easy. Haha... I am also looking for nice tourist spots and good
eateries too.
I will share what I've planned for my family which consists of 2
very small kids. So far, my planned iternary is
Day 1
>> 5 hrs flight to Australia (morning flight? not
confirm)
>> no touring around; just relax in hotel and vist at local
shops (Lakeside shopping city) for necessities; driving
familiarization for myself in MPV.
Day 2
>> Morning : Rottnest Island; Relax at the beach with the
kids playing sand/kite flying at the beach. Take boat from Hillary
Harbour.
>> Afternoon : Perth City Tour
Day 3
>> Morning : Perth Mint
>> Afternoon : Scitech - sth like Science Park (may change to
farm visit) you may want to
relook your Day 3 itenary. Perth Mint and Scitech are not worth the
trouble really. You can consider Caversham Wildlife park and zoo
(splendid for your kids - interact with joeys, koala, wombats, etc)
in the morning and spend the rest of the day in Swan
Valley.
Day 4
>> Join day tour for visit to WaveRock + Aborigine
very long bus trip. be physically
prepared. Not good for kids.
Day 5
>> Join day tour to Kalbarri (not sure of the specific
activities; but have activities 2 hr treking, whale and dolphin
watching; Fishing Kalbarri) don't
think it is the whale watching season in Apr. Journey to kalbarri
is long and tiring as well. not advisable to conquer Waverock and
Kalbarri back to back. Extemely not good for kids. To swim with
dolphins, go 45mins south to mandurah, or 90mins south to
Bunbury.
>> If Kalbarri trip is not ideal will change to Farm Visit,
alternative is to drive up to visit the wine farm at M???(can't
remeber place)
Day 6
>> Morning : Frementle
>> Afternoon : Picnic at Kings Park (their national park)
not a national park. its just the
park right in the heart of perth city. but a good place for
picnic.
Day 7
>> Return to Singapore (time not confirmed)
I've heard about other nice places to visit like the Pinnacles
which is a very nice place to go but which I've kept out because I
thought it is not suitable for my 2 little kids.
