Travel & Tourism Guide for Australia

<h1>Travel & Tourism Guide for Australia</h1>Author: <a title="Adrian" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/adrian/23998.htm">Adrian</a> For organised tours, you should contact your travel agent. For general information and brochures which will help you plan your Australian vacation contact the Australian Tourist Commission or the appropriate state tourism bodies for the states you'll be visiting.

Generally speaking (unless you don't drive) the best way to see the country is to hire a car, which can be combined with inter-state hops by plane e.g. you could combine any of the trips described below with a flight to another location such as Ayers Rock (NT), Kangaroo Island (SA), Tasmania, Melbourne (and Great Ocean Rd) or Cairns (Qld). If you're used to driving on the right, and are apprehensive about driving on the left, don't worry unnecessarily. If you take it slowly, have a good map, and only use the car for getting out of major cities (rather than driving in them), your Australia vacation should work out fine.

One technique is to leave Sydney as soon as you've got there. The airport is south of the city, so pickup an airport rental car and head south to Berry and Jervis Bay without having to go through the CBD. When you've practiced driving in the country, you'll be more confident, and ready to head back to Sydney, where you can leave the car and use public transport. If hiring a car, it's best to do circular trips that take several days than day trips, because with day trips at least 50% of your time will be spent just getting in and out of Sydney each day.

If you stay in B&B(bed &breakfast) and guesthouses you'll have a more interesting experience than motels as the hosts can help you plan your australia holiday, and are good sources of usefel information on sights to see and things to do, but you'll need to book in advance (especially at weekends and in summer).

If you live in a large city and have come to see something different, then 2-3 days in Sydney should be enough. It's a beautiful city, but cities are cities. Try to spend most of your Australia vacation in the countryside if you want to experience the real Australia.
