7 Day Western Australia Itinerary, incl. Perth and Exmouth
Western Australia's landscape unfolds across 3,200km, visiting 8 major destinations including Kalbarri National Park, Monkey Mia, and Ningaloo Reef. Daily drives range from 155km to 840km, with stays at Coral Bay Resort and Potshot Hotel.
- Day 1
Perth to Kalbarri (575km)
Leave Perth early and head north to the unique Pinnacles Desert in Nambung National Park. Stop for lunch at Jurien Bay as you follow Indian Ocean Drive. Visit the Pink Lake near Geraldton in late afternoon for the best photos before reaching Kalbarri in the evening. Want the best views? Grab a seat on the right side of the bus and bring a neck pillow for comfort.
- Day 2
Kalbarri National Park
Get to Nature's Window by 6 AM for a sunrise hike without crowds or heat. Take the 3km Grade 3 trek to Z-Bend Gorge for beautiful views but be prepared with good shoes and reasonable fitness. "Early morning hike to Nature's Window was magical - the gorge views are incredible at first light." You can also try abseiling if you're feeling adventurous.
- Day 3
Kalbarri to Monkey Mia (450km)
Travel north through diverse landscapes to the World Heritage Shark Bay area. You'll spend the afternoon at Monkey Mia Resort known for its wild dolphin visits. "Watching the dolphins swim right up to the beach at Monkey Mia was unforgettable. Get there early - they usually appear between 7:30-8:00 AM."
- Day 4
Monkey Mia to Coral Bay (580km)
Start with morning dolphins before visiting Shell Beach, a shoreline made entirely of tiny white cockle shells. Head north to Coral Bay where you can snorkel right off the beach. Remember reef-safe sunscreen and water shoes.
- Day 5
Coral Bay and Ningaloo Reef
Spend the day exploring the reef. The optional manta ray swim tour ($270) comes highly recommended: "Swimming with manta rays was absolutely worth it. We saw turtles, reef sharks and incredible marine life." Not interested in swimming? Try a glass-bottom boat tour or relax on the beach. The reef starts just 50m from shore, perfect if you're new to snorkeling.
- Day 6
Coral Bay to Geraldton (840km)
The longest travel day takes you south through Carnarvon's plantations. Look for local fruit stands selling fresh mangoes when in season. Take regular breaks at roadhouses along the way. You'll reach Geraldton by evening. Load up your phone with podcasts and bring plenty of snacks.
- Day 7
Geraldton to Perth (465km)
Start at the HMAS Sydney Memorial in morning light. Stop to see ancient stromatolites at Lake Thetis and visit the Lancelin sand dunes before arriving in Perth around 6 PM. "The dunes are amazing but very hot midday - bring closed shoes as the sand burns!"
Perth to Exmouth & Return
Western Australia reveals 12 destinations over 7 days at approx. $160 per day. The route includes Nambung's Pinnacles, overnight stops in Kalbarri and Coral Bay, and Cape Range National Park's rugged terrain. Includes 19 meals.

7 Days in Tasmania, incl. Hobart and Cradle Mountain
Tasmania's wonders span 19 destinations in seven days. From Hobart, visit Russell Falls, Cradle Mountain, Bay of Fires, and Port Arthur Historic Site. Guided walks through national parks offer multiple difficulty options. Includes 6 nights' accommodation and mini-coach transport for approx. $130 per day.
- Day 1
Hobart to Strahan
Leave Hobart early at 7:30 AM and visit Mount Field National Park to see Russell Falls and some of the world's tallest eucalyptus trees. Your journey continues through the Western Wilds to Lake St Clair and Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park. The total drive to Strahan takes 4-5 hours with stops. The West Coast is often cooler and wetter than Hobart so pack warm clothes and rain gear.
- Day 2
Wild West Coast
Take a trek through the ancient Tarkine rainforest to Montezuma Falls, Tasmania's highest waterfall. The walk follows a well-maintained former railway track and takes about 3 hours round trip. Visit the huge Henty Sand Dunes in the afternoon but wear closed shoes. The Gordon River cruise is a good option if you have time ($140). Look for platypus around Strahan at dusk.
- Day 3
Cradle Mountain National Park
Drive to Cradle Mountain (2 hours from Strahan). Pick from several walking options based on your fitness. The Dove Lake Circuit runs 6km on mostly flat ground and takes 2-3 hours. Marion's Lookout is more challenging with some climbing required over 3 hours. A recent visitor shares: "Bring proper hiking shoes and start early - the weather changes quickly here and afternoon clouds often obscure the mountain views."
- Day 4
Launceston to Bay of Fires
Visit Cataract Gorge in Launceston around 9 AM to spot wallabies before crowds arrive. Take a 2.5-hour drive to Bay of Fires to see its orange-lichen covered rocks and white beaches. The water looks beautiful but stays cold all year so bring warm clothes if swimming. Spend the night in Bicheno where you can watch little penguins.
- Day 5
Freycinet National Park
Set aside 4-5 hours for the Wineglass Bay walk. It's a steep climb but offers incredible views. For an easier option try the Cape Tourville lighthouse walk (30 minutes). Take the Great Eastern Drive back to Hobart and stop at wineries along the way. One traveler notes: "Book dinner in Hobart in advance - the popular restaurants fill up quickly, especially on weekends."
- Day 6
Mount Wellington and Wildlife
Start at Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary to see Tasmanian devils and native animals. Visit historic Richmond village before going up Mount Wellington. Pack a warm jacket since the summit runs about 10°C cooler than Hobart. Finish your day at a historic Hobart pub.
- Day 7
Port Arthur Historic Site
Drive 1.5 hours to Port Arthur and arrive before 9:30 AM to avoid tour buses. Start with the 40-minute guided walk to get your bearings. Take the harbor boat cruise and stop at Remarkable Cave and Crescent Bay on your way back to Hobart. You'll return around 5:30 PM.

- Super 7 - Seven Day Tour of Tasmania
The Ultimate 8 Tassie tour was really great because we had a fantastic guide in Justin. He went well out of his way to make our experience exceptional and has a real love for nature and passes on his enthusiasm. The motels were really good on the motel upgrade option. The tour bus wasn't full and we had ample space but may have been cramped if fully loaded. The seats by the wheels have restricted leg room so awkward for anyone tall or with back issues. The tour was well organised and really packs alot in so early starts each day. Good value for money. The first 5 days are a set tour then the last 3 days are day trips out of Hobart so new people join the group. Justin was our guide for the bulk of the tour(first 5 days) thankfully as he was superb. We had Adelene for day 6 who was also very good. Then we had another guide for days 7 and 8 and here comes the only real criticism of the trip. This guide would have ruined the trip for me if he had been the guide for most of the tour and would not give a good impression of the company to those just doing the day trips at the end of the tour. This guide had a massive chip on his shoulder and I suspect self esteem issues! Among other things he regularly criticised other guides saying things like 'aren't you pleased you have got me as your guide because the others don't know what they are talking about'. He openly contradicted the poor girl giving the honey demonstration on the Bruny Island trip which was cringeworthy. He constantly referred to this or that good friend of his that was famous in some way which was a bore after several hours! He was rude to some walkers in an attempt at being funny. He wasn't as well organised as the other 2 guides confusing pick up points, timings and also forgot to order the cheese whilst on the Bruny island trip. He was also unhelpful to one of the girls on the MONA & the mountain day trip- she had a suitcase and he just left her stranded with it when she had to board the ferry and visit the art gallery even though he had cut the morning mountain section of the day short due to poor weather conditions. At least he could have dropped her off at the hostel which would have taken him a few minutes! The walking mentioned in the MONA & the mountain and Bruny island day trip itineraries was minimal especially compared to what we had experienced on previous days with the other 2 guides. He was also an erractic driver constantly turning round to look at us. The tour was great but would not have been if we had the guide used on the last 2 days of the tour for the whole tour. Check which guides are going to be used!
- Sydney to Brisbane Experience: Bushwalks & Surfing
As far as tours go, it's great to have others to enjoy with. Wake Up was a nice hostel with a great breakfast included the first day. That day I chose to take the ferry to Manly where our tour guide Georgia showed us shopping, the beach, and this great acai bowl restaurant. From Sydney we took the 9 hour train ride to surf x camp in arrawara. The teepee I slept in was so cool. The surf lesson was great...but we only had less than 1 hour surfing in the water, if we wanted more we had to pay more, in the afternoon we went for a walk along the beach with some local indiginous people to learn about the plants of the area and try some, we stopped at the campground to find kangaroo. The food at surf X was good. surf x still hasn't sent us the link for the surfing photos though. Byron Bay is a great surf town, although I didn't surf Wake Up had free surfboards available...I had purchased the option to kayak with dolphins and didn't feel like surfing after that. the town had lots of little shops and restaurants and a walk to the lighthouse and furthest easterly point in Australia. The next day we went to Brisbane, after a koala bushwalk where we didn't see koala. In Brisbane check out Southbank and Queen street after dark.
