This package is perfect for you! Our team will guide you through every detail of your Working Holiday Visa trip, regardless of the package you choose. To enhance the start of your Working Holiday Visa program, we offer the East Coast Package.
The East Coast Tour Pack is a 27-night program from Sydney to Cairns , designed for those who want to discover all the iconic stops on Australia's East Coast.
It can be chosen:
From the start of your stay , just after your arrival in Australia (as an extension of the Basic or Activities ).
Later during your stay, after a few weeks of English classes or a job, for example (as an extension of the Basic Pack or activities as well).
Alternatively , if you simply want to enjoy a great road trip without job assistance.
This package is flexible and adapts to your itinerary: you can therefore set off to explore the East Coast as soon as you arrive or wait a few weeks, giving you time to settle in, do some work or improve your English.
Throughout this road trip, you'll travel in a group with other young people from diverse backgrounds. You'll share included activities, excursions, and evenings out in iconic cities and beaches: Sydney, Byron Bay, Noosa, Fraser Island, Airlie Beach, the Whitsundays, Magnetic Island, and Cairns.
