We did the "Doing Time" tour.
The guide was excellent and took you through the whole experience from arrival of an inmate through life inside and finally execution.
You very much experience the "feel" of what it would have been like to have been an inmate and you leave wondering how tough this would have been for those who were...

We did both the Doing Time and Great Escape tours. You can only see the prison by tour which actually made the experience all that much better. The prison is pretty much as it was in 1991. It is very atmospheric and a great chance to take some great pictures. I am not sure the attraction would be 100% for...

The Fremantle Prison is a is a glimpse into horrific conditions and prisoner treatment. The tour is best for adults only as it is a fair amount of walking and stories and conditions not good for young kids. We went on the standard above ground tour as we had only limited time.

Our tour of Freemantle Prison was a fantastic experience we had the most wonderful tour guide (Moira) who knew everything there was to know about the history of the Prison, it was honestly worth the entrance fee and you left feeling like you had "Done Time": If you are visiting Freemantle and have a spare hour and a half I...

This was a much looked forward to day. The kids were mad with anticipation. I found it interesting and it may have been more enjoyable as an adult alone. The kids got bored with walking and standing around very quickly and it turned into a bit of a whinge fest. This was no fault of the guides however, just the...

This was a great view into prison life and the tour guide was an ex prison guard. We seen the development of the prison over a number of years and got told about yard life. The hanging room was a chilling experience and to learn that the last hanging was only 48 years ago sent shivers down my spine. This...
