Most Enjoyable - On the way to fishing and fountain fun with three seven year olds, I decided to take them to the Bell Tower. I wasn't sure if the history would hold their interest, but the dulcet tone, and humour of the tour guide Howard was very engaging. The children said the experience was noisy (ANZAC bell!), nice and cool.

Ring a ding ding! - Such a fun experience. It's not everyday you get to ring a bell! It was fascinating learning the history of the bells and hearing the different sounds each make. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. The tower is wheelchair friendly.

Very enjoyable - Very informative tour with Mary, particularly loved being able to actually have a go at chiming the bells. Definitely worth a visit & if you want to visit again later in the day you can. Nice views from level 6 & a certificate to say your an official bell chimer

Lots of Fun. Howard was great. - This was fun and interesting. Our softly spoken tour guide Howard regaled us with many interesting stories about the bells and the tower. He then led us in a fun bell ringing demonstration. Our expectations were low but were well exceeded. Be sure to view the 12:00 ringing of the Anzac bell.

Ringing the bells - What a fantastic experience - highly recommended. Right from the start we had a lovely welcome and tour. Obviously the highlight was being able to ring the bells some of which were from St Martin’s in the Field church in London - which we have seen and visited. Thanks to Ilona our expert guide for a great start to our day in Perth.
