Australia Road Trips

From the abundant marine life of the Great Barrier Reef to the iconic silhouette of Uluru; from bustling and glamorous Sydney to the laidback European charm of Melbourne; and from the hippy beaches of Queensland to the wineries of South Australia, Australia is a treasure trove of places to discover. The best way to see all of the different sides to this huge country is on an Australia road trip, where you can weave through the diverse landscapes of lush national park to arid red desert at your own pace. Stop off at small Outback towns and discover hidden beach coves on the coast in between city breaks in the various Australian cities, all which have their own distinct personalities. Whether you want an adventure to learn about Aboriginal history and culture; a wildlife- and nature-focussed itinerary to experience the endemic species of flora and fauna that call Australia home; or an action packed activity-rich trip from city to coast, a road trip through Australia will show you the best that this amazing country has to offer.

"Pre-booking phone call and emails were very helpful in planning our itinerary. As our trip involved travel and flights within Australia our Concierge was regularly in touch to check on our progress. The Original Services enabled us to relax. Our 4-week holiday in Australia was fabulous. We particularly enjoyed the two multi-day hikes, Spicers Scenic Rim Trail and the Arkaba Walk. We certainly would consider using Original Travel again."
