TRANSPORTATION TO/FROM PERTH AIRPORT:
Buses run from Perth airport to the city busport and some hubs along the way.
A taxi from Perth airport to South Perth or the city will be about $40. You do not have to tip taxi drivers in Australia. Payments via credit cards attract a surcharge.
Buses go from both the city centre and South Perth to the ARRC building and will take 20-30 mins.
LOCAL TRANSPORTATION:
Perth has a good bus and train network. Fares are paid via the electronic “Smartrider” card system or via paying cash at selected ticket vending machines or directly to the driver on buses. Although drivers take cash and give change, it is advisable to have the correct or approximately correct money for the fare. See the Transperth website for more information.
If you plan to use public transport a lot during your visit then getting a Smartrider card at one of the info centres is advisable. More information here.
