Talkabout Tours and Charters since 1999
Talkabout Tours & Charters has been under the same family management since its inception in 1999. Our core business focused on overseas students, billeting them into local family homes and showing them the best that WA has to offer, always with an emphasis on learning. Covid-19 put a stop to international tourism early in 2020, but, we are now offering our extensive knowledge of Perth, Fremantle and surrounds to locals and interstate visitors as Show on the Road Tours and Charters.

Show on the Road
Talkabout Show on the Road aims to make the journey as interesting and fun as the destination. We understand bus travel can be arduous and a little boring at times so we have USB’s at every seat, and a wireless microphone on our larger vehicle. Passengers are able to play their own music on either of our buses - both have a great sound system and AV displays. We can organize comedians, musicians or experts in various fields to keep your group entertained, and if you give us a little notice, we will make the trip particularly fun for the guest of honour. Due to licensing regulations, alcohol is not permitted on our our larger vehicle, but is permitted on our 12-passenger mini-bus.
Talkabout Homestay
Talkabout Homestay has been placing International students, studying in Perth, into local homes for over 20 years. Since students are currently unable to physically enter Australia, we have created an online, virtual Homestay experience so that students can still gain insight into our lives and culture. Students connect with local families twice a week, via video chat, for a cultural exchange.
If this sounds of interest, or you would like to register to be a Host family, please visit Talkabout Homestay.
