A Six Week Australia Itinerary From Sydney

One of the trips in the US that we had always wanted to do was a "Deep South" road trip. We think the USA is the perfect country for road tripping in, and we’ve already done a number of road trips here, including iconic Route 66, the Pacific Coast Highway, and the Oregon Trail. The Deep South was a part of the USA that neither of us had fully explored, so we decided to spend … [Read more...]

A One Week UK Itinerary

And so, I present, our suggested itinerary for one week in the UK. The idea of this 1 week UK itinerary is to take in some of the essential highlights of the UK, but … [Read more...]

The Ultimate New Zealand Road Trip Itinerary

A Six Week Australia Itinerary From Sydney

I spent a very happy year living, working and road tripping around New Zealand, and in that time I got to see quite a fair bit of what this magnificent country has to offer. But what if you don’t have a year? What if you’ve got a more normal holiday period set aside for your trip, and you want to see as much of this phenomenally beautiful country as possible? Say… a … [Read more...]

A Six Week Australia Itinerary From Sydney

In this post, the second on travelling to Australia for around six weeks, I propose an itinerary for travellers starting their adventure in Sydney.

If you missed the first post, that one covers things to … [Read more...]
