Given the size of Australia and the wealth of attractions and experiences on offer, we are often asked where to start in the itinerary planning process and how to make the most of a first-time visit to this enormous country.

An itinerary for a first-time visit will depend on your personal interests, the time of year you are travelling, and the budget that you have. However, in general, you are sure to want to visit the country's most iconic sites; often utilising the excellent domestic flight network on offer, whilst also incorporating some time with a hire-car to experience one or more of the country's excellent driving routes.
