About Australia - Australian Travel

“Which Australian cities should I visit?” is the first thing most travelers ask when they call us. The honest answer depends on how you like to travel. Most first-timers pair Sydney with Cairns or Port Douglas for the Great Barrier Reef. If you’re into food and w**e, add Melbourne or Adelaide, and if you want the Outback, head to Uluru.

Quick tip: plan at least three nights in each city. On a 10-day trip, two cities is the sweet spot.

We break down 12 cities and what each one does best in the full post: https://bit.ly/4krwu65

“Should I hire a travel agent or book myself?” It’s a question we hear a lot from travelers in the first stages of planning a trip to Australia, and the honest answer is that it depends on the trip. If you enjoy researching and you’re planning a short, simple getaway with flexible dates, booking it yourself can work well. For a longer or more complicated Australia trip, especially one with domestic flights, ferries, or mobility or dietary needs, a specialist can save you money and a lot of stress.

Quick tip: check the local events calendar for your destinations in Australia before you book your flights. A big festival or school holiday can push hotel prices up fast.

We cover who’s better off with each option in the full post: https://aboutaustralia.com/blog/should-i-hire-a-travel-agent-or-book-myself/?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=Social-Post&utm_campaign=General-Marketing
