About this tour
Climb to the Bell Tower in Perth to ring the 6,500kg ANZAC Bell yourself, then learn its significance in Australian military history from your guide. This 45-minute to one-hour experience pairs hands-on chiming with stories of the ANZAC legend, finishing on the observation deck overlooking the Swan River and Perth's skyline. You'll receive a commemorative medallion (redeemable for free engraving at the Perth Mint) and a certificate marking your visit.

What to expect
You'll enter the Bell Tower and ascend to the working chamber where the massive bell hangs. Your guide walks you through ANZAC history and the bell's role in Australian remembrance. Then it's your turn: you'll operate the chiming mechanism yourself under supervision, feeling the bell respond to your pull. Expect the sound to be loud and the sensation physical. Your guide will then play a pre-recorded WWI track on the coin carillon. Finally, you'll move to the observation deck for unobstructed views across Perth and the river before collecting your medallion and certificate on departure.
