Meet there. Fremantle''s Victoria Quay is rich in history - if only the Quay could talk! Join John Dowson, historian with the Fremantle Society, on a heritage walking tour that''ll bring Fremantle Quay to life while tapping into the rich and vibrant history of the area. You''ll have the unique opportunity to visit little-known areas of Slipway Precinct, Slip Street and the Steamship Buildings where much happened concerning Lumpers wages, strikes and other colourful business of the Port. Along with John''s professional commentary, this tour will also include a special, private interior visit to the former Adelaide Steamship Company Offices in Mouat Street. At the conclusion of the tour, enjoy a coffee with the group and reflect on the ships and shipping of days gone by! You might even decide to stay on for lunch at Gage Roads brewery (all drinks and food at own cost). Meet at 10.15am on the front steps of the WA Maritime Museum, Victoria Quay Road, Fremantle
