| Highlights | |
| Kakadu national park | a great mix of all: nice scenery, hiking opportunities, animals and rock paintings |
| Mereenie loop road | This road links the recommended MacDonnell ranges with the Kings Canon. A permit is required which you can get in Alice Springs. |
| Ayers rock | Not to be missed. But please respect the Aboriginal wish and don't climb it. |
| Olgas | Good hiking oportunities in moonlike landscape. |
| Grampiens national park | tame Kangaroos |
| Great Ocean Road | spectaclar rock formations |
| Phillip island | Don't miss the penguin parade |
| Sydney | one of the most pleasant cities that we have visited |
| Restaurants / Hotels | |
| Camping | Australia has a good infrastructure for camping. If you continue to New Zealand, try to rent Campers at the same company to get a reduction (for example Brits) |
| Tips | |
| flies | In the outback you will only be able to use one hand, the other will constantly fight the flies. Or do you really want to wear that silly hat with a net? Did I tell you that they bite ? |
| wine | For those who like wine, don't miss the Barossa valley where you can go wine tasting. |
| Aborigines | If you are interested in their culture, you best go to the north or center of the country. |
