Margaret River Bakery is something that you definitely cannot miss if you are traveling southbound from Perth. Well, it might be a little difficult searching for its signboard but they are actually located at the start of the busiest street of Margaret River. In fact, you can hardly miss it as you drive into the town coming from the north.
You might have probably heard of Jamie Oliver if you watch cooking programs on TV or wander around the culinary section of bookstores where you could easily find his books. He is one of the talented and famous celebrity chefs that many people would know. Sometimes, we do watch his cooking shows but never did we think that we would have the chance to dine at his restaurant. At the time of writing, his restaurant known as Jamie’s Italian is opened in more than 20 countries around the world.
Finally, this is the last part of our Perth adventure. Since it was the final day of our vacation, we kept our itinerary free-and-easy and just spent the day exploring the busy streets and attractions of Perth City at a relaxed pace. Nevertheless, the most important agenda of the day is to dine at the famous Jamie’s Italian!
Driving in Perth, Australia is easy and relaxing compared to driving in Northern Europe if you are a Malaysian or from countries which uses the right-hand drive system (driver on the right side of the car). But why do we need to trouble ourselves driving in Perth? If you intend to explore the beautiful scenic areas of Western Australia, it is difficult to avoid driving. I am not saying that it is impossible to get to where you want via public transport but you will probably spend half a day travelling there (perhaps only half the time by driving). Also, it will be perfect if you have the optimum number in your travelling party (eg. 3 – 4 persons in a small car, 5 – 6 persons in an MPV, etc.). This way, you can reduce the driving cost by sharing while having a flexible, fun and relaxing journey. Here, I will share out some information and tips which I think you should know if you are planning to drive in Perth, Australia.
DAY 6 SWAN VALLEY If you have missed out on Margaret River during your visit to Perth, you need to make sure that you don’t miss out on Swan Valley as well. Swan Valley is where you can easily locate a variety of wineries, cafés, restaurants and homemade products within 25 minutes of driving from the city of Perth.
Hunting for a clean, comfortable and nice accommodation is always time-consuming in a vacation planning process. It might be because we are similar to other travelers who always want the best yet cheapest deal!
Again, this is the third part of our Perth itinerary. Instead of a road trip to the south or north, we visited the wildlife park, garden and nearby island in Perth to experience the nature in/near Perth!
This blog post is the second part of our Western Australia itinerary. After travelling to the south and spending two days in Margaret River region, we were back in Perth City. But, our stay in Perth was only temporary as we traveled to the northern regions for more exciting activities!
We had never thought that Western Australia (WA) would be our first footstep in Australia until AirAsia’s FREE SEATS PROMOTION last year. As we doubted our decision to fly there, a friend of Miss J who graduated and worked there told us that Western Australia is well known for its wineries and natural wonders (beaches, caves, etc.)!
