Overview of your Fremantle tour:

The history of Fremantle has seen many influential and iconic people who have contributed to the character of this unique and special port city. These include the Irish Fenian convict who escaped Fremantle Prison who settled in Boston where he became one of USA's most beloved poets. The lead singer of one of the greatest rock bands in history, AC/DC, who was raised and went to school in Fremantle. To the brash local businessman who took on the establishment of the New York Yacht Club and broke the longest winning streak in the history of world sport. Join me, Captain Dave, as I relay these and many other fascinating stories on this walking tour through the historic streets of Fremantle. I have lived and worked in Fremantle all my life and I am a working marine pilot at the Port of Fremantle. In my spare time, I have studied history to masters level at the Fremantle based University of Notre Dame Australia. It is fair to say that I have a deep understanding and passion for this fascinating port city, Freo!
