Sneak peek
Up and down in The Land Down Under – hop in a campervan and explore all the highlights of the East Coast! Visit all the must-sees along the Sunshine Route and do it in true van life style. Then let your city adventure in Sydney and Melbourne bring you back to the here and now. From kangaroos and koalas to the Great Barrier Reef and tropical rainforests, your home on four wheels will take you everywhere and show you what absolute freedom really means. Run the show your way – every single day. And don't miss out on the mysterious Australian Everglades or island-hopping to K'gari Island and Whitsunday Island! Then once you've had enough nature, hop on a plane to Sydney and say 'G'day' to two of the East Coast's sparkling icons, the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Then rattle down the train tracks to Melbourne against a gleaming skyline to round off your adventure. Ah, Down Under – it sure is beautiful at the end of the world!

Trip itinerary
Australia – just hearing its name has you bristing with excitement. You've been looking forward to this day for so long, and now you're finally standing at the airport. It's time to board the plane that's soon to bring you closer to the other side of the world. So sit back, close your eyes and have one last dream about all the adventures that await you before they finally come true!
Where are you right now? You guessed it! Still in the air, because you're on what's probably the longest flight of your life. As you get lost in your daydreams, you fly over up to three continents, numerous countries and even more cities. On the screen in front of you, you see the distance to Australia growing shorter and shorter. Excited? You bet you are!
You lift the blind and realise you're beginning the descent into Brisbane. Totally surprised, you notice how leafy the city is, and you're instantly hyped.
Put your feet up or start exploring? You're spoilt for choice! Take a stroll across Story Bridge, which is something of an iconic landmark in Brisbane and boasts an impressive 3,281 feet in length and 243 feet in height. A visit at dusk, when it's lit up in brilliant colours, is also definitely worthwhile. And there's no better place to spend your evening than Eagle Street Pier, tucked right at the foot of the city's skyscrapers, which sparkle in the light of the setting sun. You'll find loads of restaurants and bars here. And what better way to celebrate the start of your exciting journey than with a view of the Brisbane River?
Today's the start of your big adventure! And after breakfast in the city, it's high time to pick up your new travel companion for the next few days: your fully equipped campervan. Now nothing stands in the way of your road trip adventure! So, where to? That's up to you – from now on, you're the captain of your own ship! Enjoy absolute freedom and decide for yourself which campsite you'll spend the night at and snuggle up in your bed on wheels.
Your best option? Hop behind the wheel and cruise to Noosa Heads first thing. What better way to end the day than chilling on the beach, listening to the sound of waves and soaking in the sunset?
