Start in Sydney.
Drive the coast.
Collect in Caringbah, south of the city, then head north to Byron Bay or south past Jervis Bay. Eleven depots if you would rather start somewhere else.
Live prices and availability are shown on the operator's booking site.
Three things to settle first
Which depot, which class, and which direction. Everything else follows from those three.
The depot decides the route
Sydney and Brisbane sit on the east coast corridor. Darwin, Broome and Exmouth are long-distance starts where fuel and water planning matters more than the daily rate.
Match the class to the people
Two people on a coastal run do not need a four-berth. Three or four people on a long trip will resent a compact van by the second week.
Pick one direction
A route that changes direction mid-trip adds a long driving day and fuel you did not need. North or south, then commit.
Classes in the fleet
