During my first landing to Perth last February, I merely visited the Fremantle!
On 24 Dec 2009, we decided to visit Fremantle again ~ Hubby was highly depending on me "the manual GPS" (Note: I was relying on the map neither!). As we're almost reaching our destination, I directed him the wrong way so we're had to go around the alternate route! Without much expectation, we're at the downhill car-parking of Fremantle Prison.(Below photos: Entrance to Fremantle Prison)-I suggested to take a look of it!
After entrance, you'll reach the Cafeteria and Visitor Centre (No fee incurred if hanging around this area)
After a 10-min discussion, we planned to go for one of the tour - Doing Time Tour. The tour is mainly reflecting the life of convicts and prisoners!
Length: 1 hour 15 min
Price: AUD18 (for adult) and AUD9.50 (for children)
Before entering the prison- Larger Window (Chapel) and Tiny Window (Prison)
