Australia vacation help needed
My wife and I are planning an Australian vacation this February. We are
leaning toward a tour, so we do not have to drive on the wrong side of the road (wrong side for us). Any information on tour companies or guides recommended will be appreciated. Thanks Glen |

Some indication of your interests, budget, duration of stay, age etc etc etc
might help us help you!! Keep in mind that Australia is about as big as the continental USA! - and probably more diverse! "GCRYAR" wrote in message ...

I wouldn't worry to much about driving on the left -- steering wheel is also on the other side, which makes it pretty easy. I tend to get a bit confused with turn-signal and wiper (they are on the opposite side, too), but after a day you get used to that, too. Usually driving in Germany, I find the Australians to be very polite and cautious drivers in general. Additionally, speedlimit, roundabouts and warning-sings make it easy to drive. Biggest hazard is probably kangeroos at dawn. Bego -- "Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we.

We are pretty open on the trip. We have about a $14,000 budget and enjoy the
outdoor stuff. Australia Zoo is a must, as is the outback and reef. We are in our 50s. We only know what the Crock hunter has taught us about Australia, so any help or suggestions would be helpful. Thanks Glen |
