One Week from Sydney to Brisbane

Breathe in the fresh air of the ocean and the rainforest on this week-long journey from Sydney to Brisbane. On this trip, you’ll take a walk in Crowdy Bay National Park, visit the Koala Hospital in Port Macquarie, enjoy a classic Aussie barbeque in Red Rock and go stand-up paddleboarding with the Gumbaynggir community. Learn about local Aboriginal culture, soak up a free day and night in every surfer’s favourite spot (Byron Bay, of course) and fit in as many swims and sunsets as you can. Hike to the Natural Bridge rock arch in Springbrook National Park on your way to Lamington National Park, where you’ll be surrounded by natural rainforest in your excellent lodge accommodation. End it all in Brisbane, where you can choose to extend your adventure and hit the city! This trip includes accommodation in multi-share dormitories, where you won't be staying in twin share hotels, but rather cool hangouts with shared facilities. This means travellers on the same booking may be split between rooms due to the single gender dormitories. You may also be required to share with non-Intrepid travellers outside of your group. Single room supplements are available (on request).This trip is made for travellers who value their independence but also want the benefit of a local leader and a group of like-minded travellers. The itinerary has plenty of free time where your leader will offer suggestions. Please budget spending money for optional activities you want to partake in and public transport to those activities.There are some long travel days on this trip, but it’s all part of the adventure and a great way to get to know your fellow travellers.This trip is a great way to see a lot in a short period of time and it can be part of a longer itinerary if you have more time to explore.
