Overwhelmed by planning a trip to Australia? I can help!
Planning a trip to Australia? It’s exciting – but there are also so many decisions to make.
Where should you focus your time? What’s realistic in your timeframe? Should you fly between regions or commit to one great road trip?
With a quick bit of research, you’ll quickly find out that you can’t “just pop up to the Reef” and then “quickly duck over to Uluru” – but we’ll work out an itinerary that’s perfect for you.
I’m Australian and I’ve travelled extensively around the country, so I can help you make those decisions and shape them into a route that actually works – without backtracking, too many exhausting travel days or trying to squeeze in “just one more place”.
If you’re not sure how to balance Sydney, Melbourne, the Great Barrier Reef, the Red Centre, Tasmania or a coastal road trip, this travel consultation is for you.
Book a call with me to talk through your draft itinerary (if you have one), plan out a route or choose the places to visit, and understand the things you can’t missing seeing and doing in Australia. If you already have a draft itinerary, great. If you’re starting from scratch, also great.
I’ve helped thousands of readers plan their Australia trips through this blog – this consultation is the most direct way to tailor that knowledge and experience to your specific dates and priorities.

How it works
Step 1: Book your session
Book a 1-hour session. Fill out the short form and/or share your draft itinerary. Payment is US$95 per hour. You’ll receive a booking confirmation and a link to join the Google Meet session.
Step 2: Let’s chat
In our call (on Google Meet – I’ll send you a link), we’ll build your itinerary together, review your draft itinerary or simply just talk through all the ideas/questions you have. That might mean refining what you have or starting from scratch and mapping a route that makes sense.
Step 3: After the call
After our session, I’ll tidy up the planning document and add extra suggestions where helpful (accommodation ideas, tours, key experiences and booking resources). I’ll send you the link (within 3 business days) so you can start booking!
Voilà – that’s hours of your time saved!

FAQs
Fair question – there are a lot of bloggers online!
