Family Road Trip Australia


WELCOME to the blog site for Family Road Trip Australia!

We would especially like to welcome and congratulate the growing league of mums and dads who are currently travelling around Australia with their kids or are busy planning their family holiday adventure of a lifetime.

Australia is one BIG country and requires some serious driving to see all it has to offer. Even if you don't leave the state there is so much to see and do. Whether you are going for 3 months or 3 years, there is no better time to take a road trip with your family in Australia!

Once you have made the exciting decision to take a self drive tour of Australia with your children you soon realise how much research there is to do. What do we want to see? What equipment do we need to take? What sort of vehicle and accommodation combo will be best? What should we do with our house and belongings while we're gone? Can we take the dog? How will we manage such a trip with the kids?

Our website is not about reinventing the wheel. There are loads of useful sites and articles out there to help you plan the different aspects of your journey and keep you up to date while on the road. However it can take months to find them all and some you may never discover.

http://www.familyroadtripaustralia.com.au/ is your first port of call - the place to start your research. As a family who spent nearly two years on the road and even longer researching everything available on the subject we have created this website to SAVE YOU TIME! The research link list is updated regularly however if you do discover a great resource that is not listed here please drop us a quick email so that others can benefit too.

With this website on your favourites list and a copy of Discover Australia Kids 'n' All on your laptop you are ready to take on The Big One!
