Hi /trv/
I want to go visit the Australian Outback and/or beautiful nature in NZ with my gf.
Is it best for me to try and organize a trip myself or is there some tour that I should book?
Has anyone done this kind of trip and if so how did you go about it?
Sorry if my idea sounds kind of vague...
Appreciate any advice.
I've sort of done that kind of thing, one time doing a loop driving from Melbourne to Adelaide and back, and one time a loop driving north from Auckland, staying at motels each time. I made a point to visit national parks and similar places for dayhikes. No deep outback, though.
I suppose a tour can be good, if you find one focused on your interests, rather than just "see the highlights of Australia in ten days". I find I spend too much time waiting for the rest of the group doing shopping when I go on group tours. Something more focused, like a birdwatcher's tour, might avoid this problem.
