What to expect
Download the World City Trail app, enter your ticket number, and start walking whenever suits you. The app delivers GPS-guided navigation between sites and presents location-based puzzles to solve at each stop. You'll listen to audio commentary about the history and features of landmarks like Spanda, the Bell Tower, and the Perth Mint as you move through the city. All puzzles focus on outdoor areas, so you won't need to pay entry or go inside buildings.
You control the rhythm entirely—photograph a location, listen to the full audio, move on, or stop for lunch and pick up later. The route doesn't loop back to the start, so you finish wherever makes sense for you. Live chat support is available if the app encounters issues or you need help.

Good to know
This suits anyone who enjoys a self-directed pace and likes a puzzle element with their sightseeing—couples, families with older kids, and groups all work well. No fitness or experience requirements apply; the walk is manageable for all levels. Practical points: you absolutely need a fully charged smartphone and active mobile data (not city Wi-Fi), and you must disable any VPN or the app will malfunction. Book groups of up to 15; larger parties need separate bookings. Bring weather-appropriate clothes and comfortable shoes. Service animals are welcome. The 24/7 support is chat-only, not phone. Bad weather or illness? Reschedule to any other day at no extra cost.
