I am interested.
My preferred approach is fly to Adelaide on the 21st, (Flights c$399)
go to the game in Adelaide on the 22nd,
Hire a camper van and drive to Perth
Go to the game in Perth on the 29th
Fly home on the 30th. (Flights c$683)
Looking for people who are keen for a road trip...
Found this:
Me and Nick did the trip from Adelaide to Perth, got a camper van on relocation for $1 per day!! plus $150 towards fuel
All in all, we spent $700 on fuel, 42 hours non stop driving (in other
words not counting breaks, 4.5 days to get there, seen millions of dead
kangaroos, emu's following us, strange police man in the middle of no
where, beutiful sun sets and freezing mornings.
And:
Hi
Just spotted your post. Don't be put off by anyone, it is a great journey, and something you will look back on.
We have campervaned alot around Australia.
Did the Perth to Adelaide run a few years ago, went via Bunbury, Bussleton, Augusta, Albany, Esperance, bit of a detour up to Kalgoorlie (as wanted to go there) - then back down to do the Nullabor stretch....... yes, it can be a bit tedious, but isn't that part of it, the open road???? just make sure you stock up with supplies, then you can camp and stop when you feel like it.
There is a good 'camaradie' atmosphere in campsites, as you generally see the same people.
Have to say, if you want a 'get away from it all holiday' we can recommend this - or any other road trip around Oz too!
Good luck
So that sounds perfect to me... 3 people in a camper van to split the driving. Stock up in Adelaide with water beer and food...
