The temperatures haven't fallen too much, but the prices for escapes to Australia this spring sure have. Australia.com and Travelscene's "One Week Walkabout" packages allow you to explore Australia between May 1 and June 8, 2010, at prices that fit your budget. Airfare alone can cost more than a thousand dollars, but a bit more will get you extras including five-night stays in Sydney, Melbourne, or Brisbane. You can choose to stay in one location, or wander to areas surrounding these cities.
Most of the vacations begin at $1,299 per person. Examples include a Cairns and Great Barrier Reef package featuring round-trip airfare from Los Angeles to Brisbane, domestic flights to Cairns, and round-trip transfers between the hotel and airport. You'll also enjoy five-night's accommodations at a three-star Cairns hotel and a full-day cruise around the Great Barrier Reef.
If you're looking to do a bit more roaming, want to hit multiple locations, and have a bit of flexibility in your budget, the Pacific Coast Explorer package is sure to provide sensory overload. Take in Sydney, Port Stephens, and Coffs Harbor with a four-day Hertz car rental and one-night stays at each before capping off your Australian exploration with a two-night stay in Byron Bay. The total starting price is $1,597 per person.
All packages must be booked by November 30.
