What to see and do in the bottom corner of WA?
(Preview)
Imagining Esperance, Coolgardie, Perth, Albany back to Esperance as a "circle", I wish to tour inland within this circle from September this year.

What to do in Kununurra
(Preview)
This is a question asked on the forum annually. Mostly the excellent Triple-J boat tour down the Ord River is the most highly recommended & for good reason. We didn't do the Triple J tour as we were lucky enough to befriend a couple with their own comfy boat who took us down the Ord. It is a spectacula...

North Queensland for winter - those who've not booked ahead, would you do it again without booking ahead
(Preview)
We start our big lap next year and will be attending the Wintermoon festival north of Mackay in May. Instead of heading south as we've done before, we plan to continue up north for an NQ winter. Our preference is to not plan ahead and literally flip a coin to decide which way to go if we are undecided... We...

The great (ripoff) ocean road

I am sorry if I am not in the right forum but I had to express my disappointment with this whole area. The whole ocean road is geared up for tourist price gouging.All caravan parks are now well over the $50.00 mark (Melbourne cup weekend $80.00) A little gem of a place called Wye river we did a stop to get a bi...

The van, a Jayco Journey 17.6 poptop, towed beautifully the whole way, it is a docile thing to have behind your tug, nothing fell off or rattled too loose or caused any dra...
