Popular places to visit in Australia

The wide-open spaces and magnificent natural scenery make driving in Australia an experience to be savored. Australians drive on the left-hand side of the road. Visitors are allowed to drive in Australia if they have a valid drivers license in their own country for the type of vehicle they will be using. An International Drivers Permit (IDP) is not in itself valid. If the valid license is not in English, the driver is required to carry a translation. Inter-city roads and those between major towns are generally in good condition. However, road conditions can be difficult in remote areas and the large and less populated areas in the middle of Australia (the Outback). On country roads and highways, the usual speed limit is 100kmph or 110kmph, particularly on freeways, unless indicated otherwise by signs. In built-up residential areas, the speed limit is 50 kmph. Permits may also be required to travel through certain remote locations. If you are looking to explore the remote areas of the famous Australian Outback, it is best to go for a car hire in Australia and then set off on your exploration.

Australia is a lovely country — a perfect blend of history, natural beauty and urban havens. When in the country, you can visit any number of museums, theatres, the opera, traditional performances, street festivals — you name it, and there’s someone in Australia who will celebrate it. Aussies have also become major foodies with a strong taste for international cuisine, and their wine industry is one of the finest in the world. With its wide open skies, dramatic landscapes, countless activities, fine wining and dining, Australia calls out to visitors to come and spend a truly engaging time.
