Hostels in Perth
Perth is a must for backpackers to visit. The city has a great laid-back atmosphere, add to that the great weather it gets and it has to be added to your itinerary. The main issue with Perth is getting there - it is quite a distance from everywhere else in Australia so plan it as either your arrival or departure point from Australia. |
