Sightseeing
For backpacking trips, sightseeing in Australia is the best activity. Australia offers a lot of beautiful things to see for free including our personal favourite Blue Mountains. Many museums in Australia do not have an entry ticket, you can walk on the harbor Bridge for free, and can also admire the natural beauty of Northern Queensland without paying even a single penny.
Take your water bottle with you
Buying a water bottle can be extremely costly. Moreover, you are also not sure whether the water is fit for consumption or not. You are advised to always keep your own water bottle with you and to refill it before leaving your hotel. Doing this will not only save money but also provide you clean and purified water.
