There’s no denying that the Land of Down Under ranks high on the list of top travel destinations. With the exchange rate being nearly 1:1, you get the feeling of being in an ang moh country without having to double the digits everytime you make a purchase. 

But Aussie ain’t just about the Sydney Opera House and kangaroos. There’s a lot to discover in cities like Perth, where you’ll find activities that can’t really be seen in Singapore like glamping spots under the stars and haunted prison tours.

Read on to find out some perks for NTUC members. Hint: it includes a free trip to anywhere via Scoot network. 

 

Things to do in Perth and beyond

 

1. Go glamping under the stars

Take advantage of Western Australia’s picturesque landscape by ditching the hotels and springing for a night under the stars.

Mile End Glamping lets you glamp in extreme luxury as you’ll be encased in geodesic domes with an unobstructed view of Margaret River and millions of stars at night, giving you the best of both worlds.

A visit to Fremantle Prison is a true test of courage. Opt for their exclusive Torchlight Tour where you will use your own torchlights to explore the prison compound. But be careful where you shine at as rumour has it, the place is haunted and floating light spectres have been sighted around tour groups.

Just a short 30-minute ferry ride from Fremantle, Rottnest Island is home to a maze of World War II tunnels, snorkelling hot spots, and, most importantly, quokkas aka the friendliest animals you’ll ever see.

To locate these elusive critters on the 19 kilometre-squared island, bikes are the way to go. Thankfully, the island is blessed with many bicycle tracks for easy pedaling and amazing sightseeing. 

We recommend cycling via the Gabbi Karniny Bidi route, a 9.7km loop that gives you easy access to glistening salt lakes and the surrounding wildlife.
