Incredibly interesting. - Learning how the bells are rung and how hard it is to be a Bell ringer. Being able to see the bell’s actually being rung, especially the magnificent Anzac bell.

Thoroughly enjoyable Bell Tour and Bell Chiming experience - The view from the 6th floor of the Bell Tower was great. We also took the session where they allowed us to chime the swan bells and that was a fantastic experience with Paul giving a great introduction and excellent explanations.

Wonderful experience! - Howard gave an excellent tour! It was very knowledgeable and engaging and happy to answer any and all questions from the group. We all got a turn to have a go at chiming the bells and each received a certificate as well. If you time the visit right, you also get to see the ANZAC bell in action at midday! Overall, a lovely visit, with a wonderful view of the surrounds.

For the lovers of bells 🔔 and all things historical - Located alongside the swan river located in the heart of Perth. This iconic structure is not one to be missed. Ring the bells during the day. See the lights at night. Pair this experience with the Perth Mint for extra discount.
