Australian Working Holiday And Touring
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel-sea,
Her beauty and her terror –
The wide brown land for me!
Dorothea Mackellar - My Country - 1908
​
Never has the Australian experience been better summed up than by the then 19 year old Mackellar. Far horizons, jewelled sea, beauty and terror in equal parts. The kind of awe inspired terror only a boundless, untameable, unknowable land can impart. It's not all pretty beaches and quirky opera houses, you know! Get off the beaten track in any of Australia's wild places and you'll know what she meant.
​
There's a reason Australia features highly on every young travellers must-do list.
​
Actually there's thousands of reasons.
​
From the steamy jungles, endless wilderness and breath taking reefs of the far north, through the vast open plains of the rugged yet serene Outback to the spectacular highlands, beaches and untouched rainforests of Victoria and Tasmania in the south, Australia offers a climate, a vista and an experience for everyone.
​
Australia's cities are vibrant, cosmopolitan and safe. The regions are welcoming, vast and diverse.
​
Working holiday makers can live and travel the country for up to 3 years while earning one of highest minimum wages in the world.
East Coast - Melbourne To Cairns
The classic "backpacker route". Beautiful beaches, famous surf breaks, vibrant cities, quirky towns, breath-taking reefs, spectacular islands and the endless Pacific Ocean.
​
The Outback -
Often referred to as "The Real Australia" the outback is a place unto itself. Escape the crowds and immerse yourself in a wild place like nowhere else on earth.
​
West Coast - Perth To Darwin
Perth, the most isolated city on earth. The West is where red dirt country meets white sand beaches and coral reefs. From some of the best wine country in the world down south to the endless red sands of the north.
​
The South - Victoria and Tasmania
Cool climate, cooler Melbourne, coolest Tassie. Head south for a totally different experience. Unbelievable high country, magnificent beaches and the worlds cleanest air and water. What more could you need?
