Let's Go Australia 9th Edition

Completely revised and updated for 2007, Let's Go Australia is researched and compiled entirely by students who know first-hand how to see the world on the cheap. This guide has insider tips and information for the socially conscious traveller and is more useful and opinionated than ever.

For over 40,000 years, people have been arriving awestruck on this far-flung island at the edge of the earth and even for today's visitors, the island continent retains a magical, dream-like quality unlike anywhere else on earth. It offers astonishingly varied, visually stunning natural features, exotic animal and plant life, and shimmering, cosmopolitan oases populated by denizens entirely genuine in their mantra of "no worries, mate." Where else can you enjoy world-class wine-tasting, get dangerously close to a saltwater croc, learn to play the didgeridoo, snorkel in expanses of ancient coral reef, and dance the night away at the largest club in the Southern Hemisphere?
