Enjoy the freedom of your own motorhome along the east coast of Australia. During the trip, cozy towns, outback, legendary beaches, lots of hiking opportunities, the world’s oldest rainforest and fantastic snorkeling at the Great Barrier Reef await. Learn more about Australia on smber.
In your own luxury motorhome you can get to all corners of Australia, to the small communities, the legendary national parks and the beautiful beaches that few visit.
The journey begins with four days in Sydney on your own. From here you pick up your motorhome and are free to travel along the east coast of Australia to Cairns. You have the motorhome for 23 days and with free kilometers you can freely set the course where it suits you. Once you have left the motorhome in Cairns, you will go on your own to your apartment at fantastic Trinity Beach. Here you have two nights before the trip goes back to Sweden. It is also possible to make stops in, for example, Singapore or Hong Kong on the way home.

Comments
The motorhome is equipped with double bed, toilet / bath, kitchen, refrigerator, DVD / flat screen TV, barbecue, air conditioning, bedding / duvets, kitchen utensils and much more. It runs on diesel and has an automatic transmission, so you do not have to bother with manual shifting but instead can concentrate on driving on the opposite (left) side of the road.
