Travelling by vehicle is the best way to travel Australia. Driving has the flexibility letting you go where you want, when you want. And there are many road trips in Australia to undertake. You can go across the top or the bottom. Up or down the middle. Follow the East Cost and or West Coast. Drive between major cities. Or drive the big lap of Oz. Plus there are plenty of road trips in each state. Check out my map following for some Australia road trips inspiration. It shows you some of the best places to visit in Australia and suggestions on how long to spend there.

Don’t have a vehicle? Rent one through DiscoveryCars.
Need accommodation? Use Booking.com to get a great deal, or try house sitting through Trusted Housesitters.
Don’t forget Insurance – SafetyWing is great for long term travellers while World Nomads is great for general travel insurance. There are many car and caravan insurance companies.
