Happy Canadian Posted December 26, 2012 #1 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Sailing on Celebrity Solstice and wondering where ship docks in Perth. Itinerary indicates we dock in Perth but attached map would indicate the cruise ship terminal is in Freemantle at the mouth of the river. I'm hoping it is Freemantle. Can anyone enlighten me? http://crew-center.com/perth Danielle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega1 Posted December 26, 2012 #2 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Yes, the Solstice will dock in Fremantle. If you zoom in on the map, through he link you provided, you will see 'Fremantle Passenger Terminal'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted December 27, 2012 #3 Share Posted December 27, 2012 HAPPY CANADIAN: Danielle, Yes, get around Freo (Fremantle) nice port town, great Maritime Museum, well worth a visit, plus visit the old Gaol (jail.) Great markets as well. You can walk into the town from the cruise ship berth, about 15 minutes flat stroll. If you want to get into Perth City, take the train, about 10 minutes walk from the ship. Takes around 30 minutes into the City. Above all, ENJOY ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkmw Posted December 27, 2012 #4 Share Posted December 27, 2012 when you dock in Fremantle they run free buses the Red & Blue Cat http://www.fremantle.wa.gov.au/sustainability/CAT_bus if you walk over the railway bridge at the pier you can catch the Red Cat which takes you into Fremantle and you can ride on the Blue Cat if you wish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizzy1948 Posted December 27, 2012 #8 Share Posted December 27, 2012 It is exactly (according to the "where is") 22.2 kms from Fremantle Port to Perth International Airport. A rough taxi calculation is: $49.00 - and believe it or not - the taxi calculation says: 27 kms to the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus Traveller Posted December 27, 2012 #9 Share Posted December 27, 2012 It is exactly (according to the "where is") 22.2 kms from Fremantle Port to Perth International Airport. A rough taxi calculation is: $49.00 - and believe it or not - the taxi calculation says: 27 kms to the airport. When we were there, people were paying around $65 for the taxi fare to the airport. By the way, I have noticed previously that the 'taxi calculator' seems to quote low fares. It is usually cheaper to take the transfers offered by the cruiseline.
