The Ultimate Guide to Experience Gifts in Perth

Whether it's a birthday, Christmas, anniversary, graduation, or any other day of the year, if you're looking to give the best gift possible, there's really nothing better than a fun and adventurous experience gift. Let's find out what the best experiences in Perth are!

What to Expect in This Article:

What Is an Experience Gift?

An experience gift is something special - much better than any physical gift could ever be. Sure, video games, wristwatches, clothing, and other such presents are fine in some cases, but if you want to make a purchase that will really stand out, taking your family, friends, kids, and loved ones on an experience just can't be beat.

Experience gifts are activities - things to be experienced in person, not held in your hand. For example, if you want to take your whole family on an experience that they won't soon forget, a Rotor One helicopter tour gift voucher is the way to go - Rotor One has plenty of helicopter tours and experiences that any and every recipient can enjoy, no matter the time of day.

Simply put, experience gifts allow you to explore, go on an adventure, and actually do something fun - bring along the family and discover how much better it is to go on an experience in Perth rather than sitting around and unwrapping dusty gifts.

Types of Experience Gifts

Something you might be wondering is what kinds of experience gifts you have the chance to go on - we guarantee that you probably haven't thought of too many of these!

Adventure Experience Gifts

Adventure experiences are all about engaging in some kind of thrilling activity, such as hang gliding, skydiving, motorboating, abseiling, and helicopter rides, too.

The keyword here is adventure, and if you want to book an adventure that you'll remember forever, Rotor One gift vouchers are always a solid choice.

Attraction Experience Gifts

If we're talking about Perth, there are plenty of attractions here. Top attractions in Perth include Kings Park and Botanic Garden, Elizabeth Quay, Cottesloe Beach, Perth Zoo, the Bell Tower, WA Museum Boola Bardip, Swan River, and the Perth Mint. These are all great places you can choose to go for the experience of a lifetime. Even better is when you get to see these places from a helicopter!

Travel Experience Gifts

Another type of experience gift, one that is easy going, where you might actually learn something, is the travel experience gift. This could include travelling outside of Perth to one of the many wineries nearby, such as Millbrook or the Margaret River Winery - or it could mean taking a helicopter tour to one of the many famous islands around Perth, with Rottnest Island always being a fan-favourite.

Dining Experience Gifts

One of the best types of experiences to get gifts cards or vouchers for are dining experiences. The fact of the matter is that eating at a gourmet restaurant is always much better than having to go to the market and fill your cart with food that you then have to cook. It's much better to enter a venue that takes care of everything for you.

For example, you'll find that the Millbrook Winery has a wide range of food to choose from and hands down some of the best cuisine in the country.

Why Experience Gifts Are Better Than Traditional Gifts

Going on a whole experience is just so much better than getting a random gift. When you go on an experience, you get to explore the world around you and watch adventures unfold in real-time. Here's why experience gifts are the best.

  • Experience gifts create memories that any material gift just can't match. Just imagine going on a helicopter tour to Rottnest Island and seeing its majesty from the sky! That's the kind of thing that a pair of socks just doesn't come close to.
  • Another great aspect of experience gifts is that they give you the chance to spend the day with the most special people in your life, all while having a good deal of fun. Mums, dads, kids, and that special someone will all love an experience gift purchase.
  • Experience gifts are great because they really let the recipient do what they love, whether it's riding in a chopper, enjoying a fine-dining establishment, or going to a sporting event.
  • The fact is that experience gifts are unique, thoughtful, and meaningful. They show that you really care about the gift recipient. It's all about putting thought, time, and effort into choosing an experience that you know your recipient will enjoy.
  • Some people can be difficult to please, but when they learn that they're going on the adventure of a lifetime, all of a sudden, things look much better!

Who Are Experiences the Perfect Gift For?

The neat thing about experience gifts is that they really are perfect for just about anyone and everyone. Kids will love taking a scenic helicopter tour, parents will love spending the day on Rottnest Island, and your special someone will absolutely adore a day spent wining and dining at one of Perth's best wineries or restaurants.

Landing on an island might not be for everyone, but you might still want to take to the skies in a state-of-the-art chopper. If so, a great experience gift is a Perth scenic helicopter ride, where everyone onboard will get to soar through the sky and enjoy seeing locations such as Kings Park, Elizabeth Quay, Optus Stadium, and the Swan River.
