Such a great service for many visitors who have to vacate accommodation by 10am and who only fly out in the afternoon. Lovely people, easy to locate.

Western Australia is home to Fremantle, just 16 kilometres outside of Perth. Fremantle is a port city known for its maritime history. Nicknamed Freo by locals, the city is a perfect blend of new and old. Freemantle’s architecture, history and art are ideal for culture vultures. Travellers seeking great nights out and must-see landmarks will also find plenty to enjoy on a trip to the Western Australia city.
Fremantle’s close proximity to Perth makes it possible to arrive in the Western Australia capital and make the short journey to Freo.
