The Activities Pack , available in Australia and New Zealand only, includes the same essential services as the Basic Pack , but it's specifically designed for those who want to enhance their experience at the very beginning of their stay with group activities and explorations of the city and its surroundings , thanks to the included excursions. In addition, the Activities Pack includes three extra nights, giving you more time to relax before starting your Working Holiday Visa adventure. It's also the perfect opportunity to connect with friends from around the world who share your situation and mindset, and to build a network of friends right from the start, especially if you're traveling alone.
During your road trips in Australia or New Zealand, you will also have the opportunity to benefit from access to hostels partnered with the job assistance, so you will always have a place to stay available.
Are you a fan of unusual adventures ? During your stay, we can also offer you different programs: 4x4 excursions, surf camps, or even a 3-month program to become a surf instructor!
In summary, this program is ideal if:
Activity packages start every Wednesday in Sydney and at least one Wednesday per month in Melbourne and Auckland, contact us for exact dates.
