1. Consider booking a 28-day grand Australia adventure trip from Qantas Vacations. This adventure trip package, which includes free airfare from Los Angeles, takes you throughout virtually the entire country. You start in Sydney and visit such places as the Outback and the east coast of Australia. Along the way, you'll have breathtaking sightseeing and adventures at each stop. If this sounds like the adventure trip for you, contact Qantas Vacations on their website or call them at [phone].
2. Look at other options at the Australia Visitor Center website. On the website, you can find adventure packages that consist of everything from swimming with dolphins to going to a koala park. You can get more information from the Australia Visitor Center by calling them at [phone].
3. Decide on the package that best fits your desires and book your reservation. If your travel package does not include airfare, book your airfare through Expedia. It's best to book both the reservation for the adventure trip and your airline tickets well ahead of time so that you avoid paying more as the date draws near.
4. Pack for your adventure. Consult with the tour company who booked your reservation and ask for a packing checklist. Bring clothing to protect you from the sun and purchase any gear that you need from an outdoor store such as REI.
5. Purchase a map of Australia once you arrive in the country. If time permits, you can go on your own to places that interest you. Since Australia is a relatively safe country, you can feel safe while you travel by yourself. Also, consider hiring a local travel guide to show you around to help boast your adventure trip.
