Day Trips

Travel and tourism is not just about getting in the car or hoping on a plane and travelling for hours before arriving at your accommodation where you will spend the next week or two. It also includes day trips. Sometimes these trips are well planned and thought out destinations and sometimes it’s spur of the moment.

Here in Perth we are so lucky with options; a picnic up to the hills in the bush, wine tasting in The Swan Valley, a stroll along the river, or a day at the beach.

Like Toddlers on Tour on Facebook, or Follow us on Twitter, Google+ and Pinterest to see how we have spent a day in our home town. Hopefully we can inspire you to explore your home town.

Not sure what to take with you on your day trips check out the “Packing for Day Trips” page.
