Need Polack inputs, already posted to /trv/ but board moves too slow.
White, Anglo family of six headed to Australia for 12 days, flying in/out of Melbourne. We'll road trip and will stay in AirBNBs, seeing/doing along the way.
Plan A is to drive up coast to Brisbane, then across interior to Melbourne.
Plan B is to drive up to Adelaide, cut over to Sydney, then down coast to Melbourne.
Which is better route?
What should we see and do?
INB4 Fuckoff we're full; we'll fuck off back to America anyway, plus we white as hell, i'll post DNA next
12 Days in Australia from Melbourne

Hey lad
Probably should look at a map before you do plan b. Adelaide to Sydney is not something I would wish on any cunt. But,if you want to see abos up close, do that.
Melbourne to Brissy is a good trip, planned correctly will take you ave the snow mountains, through the rainforest and some of the beaches.
Lot less abos, fuckton more gooks, chinks, streetshitters and other assorted shitskins.
What do you hope to see?
Pic rel is between Shitney &Brissy
Asher Edwards
Op, switched to phone
Natural beauty, etc.
Julian Perez
BTW is sunday morning and every cunt will be hungover
Better off asking in an aus/pol/ thread
Jonathan Phillips
Hikes, quaint/historical towns, etc.
Daniel Collins
Your plan needs some tweeking.
If starting in Melbourne you’re best driving to Adelaide via the coast, the great ocean Rd is ok but the limestone coast and Murray mouth and Coorong areas are fantastic some top shelf nature is in the national parks around here,
Continue taking the southern route in Adelaide, kangaroo island and the peninsula.
From Adelaide drive due north and go eat to broken hill then dunno then Sydney.
You’ll see more of actual Australia than Melbourne to Sydney inland or by the coast. The coastal route is all burnt down mostly anyway.

Adam Murphy
>Natural beauty, etc.
Def do up coast to bris then.
Lots of bush, walking tracks, tourism shit.
No koalas left outside of zoos though.
Avoid Byron Bay at all costs.
Avoid Nimbin at all costs.
Oxley Hwy is a good loop road, so is the New England.
Anything else mate?
Henry Phillips
will be more to see up the coast to Brisbane. Sydney is a 2 day drive from Adelaide, but the Great Ocean Road is scenic.
Hard to say though because don’t know what you’re into other than based on my experiences of burgers and eurofags here is that you will probably be shocked by the vast distances between places.
Matthew Watson
The area around Adelaide looks unique and yes, we'd like to see more authentic Australia
James Ramirez
Everything south of Brisbane (including Brisbane) is a pozzed hell hole. Fly into Cairns, travel south to Brisbane, then go home.
Wyatt Green
Do we really need to stay clear of abbos in the interior then, its not mostly a meme?
Asher Howard
Depends on the town. If you go to a town with Abos, make with your car like you’re in San Francisco: leave nothing visible in it and don’t put valuables in the trunk in public.
Charles Long
>trunk
its a boot cunt. you're an imposter.
Josiah Peterson
If you like nice beaches, wine and colonial architecture then Adelaide is very nice.
If you head north from Adelaide to the Flinders Ranges you can see some real outback, especially if you make it to Arkaroola and do the Ridgetop Tour. Nice time of year to go there now that summer is over and winter isn’t here yet.
Robert Davis
I know, but having lived in burgerland for a few years I consciously speak burger to burgers because it reduces confusion.
Jason Perry
What about "Australian" foods and meals?
Also, where do locals shop for clothes, goods, etc. Like the Australian version of target, or like NZ's warehouse stores?
Thank you all
Aaron Sanchez
avoid melbourne and sydney at all costs. welcome to the country m8.
Zachary Howard
What i mean is, what meals and foods would you consider Australian
Asher Taylor
Its pretty much a clone of the US with no guns and more lefties. Target, Kmart, Macca's, etc. All that shit is here. Population is only about 25 million though, so think the US with 10 times less choices.
You can get nice meals in expensive as fuck resturants. but 90% of the places you go to eat are a variation on the same thing. Overpriced pub food with shit service included.
You don't need to tip at all - and you wouldn't want to becuase service in Australia is woeful. All the waitresses are getting paid about $25 per hour while they do their women's studies degrees, and have the attitude to match.
Leo Richardson
12 days and you want to drive to brisbane? Fuck that, you wont have time to stop anywhere. Just get a domestic flight.
Isaiah Flores
Vegemite and Fosters. That's all they eat. Every day.
Dominic Parker
Most people will silently hate you as well for being American. Most of it is rooted in a non-verbalised jealousy of the US that will be projected at you in a quiet, condescending manner.
Oliver Thompson
You can do it non-stop in about 18 hours...boring as fuck though.
Juan Torres
Honestly fuck Melbourne. Its Seattles cleaner cousin
Aaron Roberts
Food: when outside of the big cities and you want something casual, go to a bakery or if you want a sit down meal, go to a pub. Cafes are also an option - ask for a flat white, the national coffee drink. Espresso is the standard here, not drip.
Jace Hughes
This is what i mean, it will take 4 days off their 12 day holiday to see flat land between Shepparton and Goondiwindi. Our country roads arent like country USA. Youll be driving through towns that consists of a few pubs, a bakery and an IGA... dont waste your time OP. If you really want to go for a drive, Go Melbourne to Wollongong via the coast.
William Cox
The less time spent in Melbourne the better.
If you're going to drive long distances in the outback then you really must take proper safety precautions. Tourists have been known to break down a long way from help without water and means of contacting help/get lost.
Other anons might have more details about that. But something to consider.
Cameron Flores
Melbourne is a multiculty shithole and so is sydney. You'd be better off flying to Cairns, spending some time on the reef then driving down to Brisbane. I think theres a petting zoo in Cairns somewhere where you can hold koalas and feed kangaroos etc.
Australia is a lot bigger than most americans realise. The trip you described in your post would take several days of driving. Sydney to Melbourne alone is 8+ hours in a car.
Also, make sure that you're eligible for a drivers license before you come here.
William Russell
Brisbane is just as full of Asians as Melbourne and Sydney.
In Brisbane you add a fuckton of Islanders
Noah Murphy
>Plan B is to drive up to Adelaide, cut over to Sydney, then down coast to Melbourne.
lmfao yeah just casually cut over from Adelaide to Sydney.
Don't do that mate, it's the most boring possible drive between any major city. Takes two full days and there is legitimately nothing on the route of any interest. 80% of it is a single 2 lane road with only servos for entertainment. Even the landscape is flat red shit.
Christian Cox
dont listen to this faggot. i drove my family sydney to port lincoln.a few years back to go see great whites and it was a great trip. take coast the whole way and you can just camp on the beach get to see great ocean road, all the capital cities, heaps of wildlife. was about 5k roundtrip.
James Hughes
not your blog, we dont give a fuck

If you’ve got a US licence you can drive here and vice versa. I still have a valid California licence and showed it to a cop that did me for being over the limit in my parents car. Let me off with a warning. Sweet.

Grayson Lopez
i'd really recommend seeing the country. maybe check out one big city, but it'd be awfully similar to any large american city really. gold coast is always nice. check out the rain forests and swimming holes up north too. that's where most of the backpackers go anyway.
William Harris
Don't bother with Melbourne.
Drive from the airport directly through to canberra along hume fwy.
Check out the Australian war memorial. It's pretty good.
Then skip Sydney altogether. Find somewhere north of it to stop. Plenty of decent spots between lakes entrance and Brisbane.
Spend your time in South East Queensland. Do the theme parks, wildlife parks and beaches etc.
Melbourne is an urban death maze full of third world scum and chinks. Sydney is just a bigger version with more chinks and jihadists.
Queensland is real Australia.

yeah thats a fucking gay route full of shit. take the coast
Hunter Ward
coast route. not even a question. I'd tell you the nice places but I'd had to see them hit by crowds so you're on your own.
Juan Collins
>gold coast is always nice
aaaaaaaaaaahahahahahaha
Jace Gray
Post yours...bet you're a faggot shitskin
Jaxon Gonzalez
I second this Unless you're really keen on seeing yet another multicultural shithole, skip Sydney and Melbourne.
If you're already booked for flights or otherwise want to see them anyway then get a domestic flight to Brissie because your trip is too short to waste so much of it driving.
The Gold Coast has our big theme parks but The Sunshine Coast has less crowded beaches.
Tip from a local: Avoid The Gold Coast during the end of November. Teens from around the country go there to celebrate finishing high school. They usually get blind drunk and/or drugged out of their minds and many venues get shut to non-school-leavers to protect these kids from their own poor decisions.

Ok user heres what i would do, taking into account what others have written. Fly into Melbourne, hire a car at the airport and spend a night or two at most in the city. Drive to Wangaratta and get on the Great Alpine Road and follow it the entire way. Youll see the best of Rural Victoria, full of creeks and national parks. Heaps of real country towns. Follow the road over Mount Hotham and stop in at the General Store, its open all year round as its a post office. Youll see one of our snow resorts without snow. No chains needed until June. Follow through to to Omeo and onto Lakes Entrance. Head North on the coast. Youll see pristeine beaches, heaps to do on the way through Merimbula, Tathra, Batemans Bay, all the way to Huskisson. Stay in Sydney for a night or two, do the tourist things, climb the bridge, see the Opera House, go to Luna Park. Drop the hire car off at Sydney Airport and fly to Brisbane. Queensland is based Australia imo. Go to the theme parks if thats what you want to do, go check out Surfers Paradise, Gold Coast etc and go exploring in some rain forests up there. A QLD user might add some more info.. Maybe try Whitsundays..? look take this advice or leave it but thats the best way to go from Melbs to Syd. Good luck, im gonna go eat some food on the beach for lunch.
Pic Realted, its the WhitSundays.

Thank you!

Nathaniel Morales
QLD user here, instead of Gold Coast go to Burleigh Heads. After Brisbane check out Noosa, Hervey Bay, Agnes Waters, Yeppoon, Airlie, Whitsundays, Hamilton Island, Townsville, Mission Beach, Cairns and fly to wherever after that.
Daniel Morris
What's in shepp that's worth seeing? Nature?
Chase Hernandez
By nature you mean a bunch of imports sent there for government housing? Shep is the worst.
Jason Flores
australia zoo is an hour north of brisbane lad
Jackson Garcia
We had fuck off bush fires that absolutely raped south coast NSW, do me a favour and go spend some money in the towns of South Coast NSW, drive up from Melbourne for a real nice drive along the coast, probably about 10hours total. Sydney is fuck off expensive, so I would probably suggest hardly even stopping in there, drive through Wollongong, an industrial town with nice beaches, keep going through Sydney, stop in Newcastle, an ex industrial town and then go up to the North coast of NSW if you have the time, like Byron bay or something. Adelaide is shit, and the whole state of South Australia won't appeal to a tourist on your time frame
Hudson Bailey
If you want mild, cool weather: drive straight to the port, get on the spirit of tas and come visit us Taswegians. better food, air, nature and not fire fucked.
If you want heat and sun then go up to Brisbane or at least as far as coffs harbour. There’s lots of little quaint coastal towns on the way
Colton Rogers
Its only 15 hours you fucking sook.
Brandon Thomas
>Melbourne?
Why? Its the most chaotic fucked up city in the country. Its not even white anymore.
Come to sunny QLD.
Jordan Hernandez
Adelaide to Sydney is pretty boring with nothing to see except our country being raped by foreign owned almond and cotton plantations using all our water. The coast route is very beautiful with lots of national parks and beaches.
