Getting There & Around
Fremantle sits within Zone 2 of the Perth public-transport system (Transperth) and is only
30 minutes away by train. There are numerous buses between Perth's city centre and Fre-
mantle, including routes 103, 106, 107, 111 and 158.
Another very pleasant way to get here from Perth is by the 1ΒΌ-hour river cruise run by
Captain Cook Cruises (

).
There are numerous one-way streets and parking meters in Freo. It's easy enough to
travel by foot or on the free CAT bus service, which takes in all the major sights on a con-
tinuous loop every 10 minutes from 7.30am to 6.30pm on weekdays, until 9pm on Friday
and 10am to 6.30pm on the weekend.
Bicycles
(Kings Sq, Fremantle Visitors Centre; 9.30am-4.30pm Mon-Fri, to 3.30pm Sat, 10.30am-3.30pm Sun)
can be rented for free at the visitor centre, an ideal way to get around Freo's storied
streets. A refundable bond of $200 applies.
