You can start your Motorhome holiday from many different destinations, that is the joy of taking a Camper rental holiday with Apollo Campers this simply means that you have a choice of where to begin, you can just go where you want to, if you want to stop you can, do just that, pull over and park in a safe spot and take the back seat in the luxury of your Motorhome.

Australia is a very large place so you do need to have a plan, take the right breaks in order to not to get to over tiered. With so many destination spots on that very large map, you had better get going right now!

You could start in the very North of Australia in Northern Queensland and pay a visit to Daintree rainforest, an amazing place, take in Port Douglas, head for a look around Cairns, making time to stay and see the Great Barrier Reef.

The vast place that is the Northern Territory with such a diverse scenery, again has to be seen to be believed to be seen, with the famous Ayers Rock (Uluru) and the outback destinations of Alice SpringsKatherine Gorge another truly amazing place, look at what nature has to offer, Kakadu, a true destination of beauty as with all of the National Parks in Australia you need time to see it all, a lot of time in fact! However what ever you take in will be a lasting memory of a lifetime, Australia has it all!

If you head towards Southern Queensland the place has such a lot to offer and for those of you following the sun then the Sunshine Coast, is a must and the fact that Brisbane, is on hand to spend some time in, one of Australias leading cities. Making your way along the Gold Coast, it is a little like an adventure all on its own, take a look at Coolangatta as you are on route as well.

The very pulse of Australia can be found in the vast area of Northern New South Wales, must places to visit are Byron Bay, Coffs Harbour, Tamworth and Port Macquarie. As you come to move towards what is known as Inland New South Wales there are places like Dubbo, Parkes, Orange and Bathurst to take in.

4 X 4 a real adventure Camper hire

Well the more you know about how to use your 4X4 motorhome the better, especially if you are going to explore the outback of Australia.

4X4 Camper hire is just one of the many hire deals that you can get from Apollo Campers in Australia.

You can start out from the Apollo Camper branch in Alice Springs and you will be on a head start out into the outback.

I guess you could say that your walk about begins with a ride in a 4X4 from Apollo Campers.

Now you may have thought the coastlines were spectacular in Australia, however nothing prepares you for the vast open spaces of the Outback!

The rugged roads and tracks that take you back where the pioneers of the gold rush and the Aborigines lived many, many years ago, you get the sense of adventure the moment you step into that 4X4 Camper.

Australia's National Parks and places to visit like Kakadu, Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, Great Sandy National Park, that is home to Fraser Island. The 'Red Centre and Uluru (Ayer’s Rock) they are all great places to visit, if you have the time! 4X4 Campers are rugged and you need to make sure that you check your vehicle throughout your hire term. It does not take long to check your tyre pressures and oil and water levels and it is a good idea to always check your own water supply as well!

The outback is a spectacular place to visit, however never underestimate your journey times and always be prepared to ask the friendly Apollo staff, they have a vast experience of 4X4 travel and in that way you will remain safe and enjoy an amazing Campervan holiday adventure!

Join us Down Under

Well what do you need to be tempted to join us down in sunny Australia?

How about the following S words sun, sea, surfing, sailing, safari, sandy beeches, spectacular places, super people sounds great so what are you waiting for?

Maybe if you look over the video from Apollo Motorhome Rentals and see the luxury that awaits you in hiring one of their Motorhomes, that may tempt you without to much more persuading to be done!

Now we could take a look at what makes Australia so good for Motorhome Holidays, well first of all you can go and see the cities there is no doubt that Sydney is a very favourite city for many people all over the world without question.

Then there are the cities like Melbourne and Perth for example, both very special places to visit when in Australia and if it is peace and quite that you are seeking then Australia has some very remote places for you to visit, like Alice Springs and the Northern Territories. Apollo Campers hire out Motorhomes and Campers all over Australia so no worries here mate.

Now when it comes down to wanting a holiday on the beaches of Australia you will be overwhelmed with them all, from Bondi beach when in Sydney or travelling up the east coast, there are even more beautiful beaches to be seen, then just when you think that you have seen a good beach you need to get started on the west coast! The beaches of Australia will really take your breath away they are truly amazing.

Now lets consider if you are going to be on a backpacking holiday, if you are on a budget on your way to the see the great land down under, you will have lots to places to choose from, however you can still think about a hire of a camper from Hippie Campers, they do great deals and you can hop from the different places, walk a bit, see what you want to and move on at will.

Now you may have thought the coastlines were spectacular, then prepare yourself for Australia's National Parks with just a few to mention like Kakadu, Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, Great Sandy National Park, that is home to Fraser Island. The 'Red Centre and Uluru (Ayer’s Rock) they are all great places to visit if you have the time!

Now you are going to see an abundance of wildlife in Australia, from kangaroos, koala bears, kookaburras, emus, possums, wallabies, dingos to native Australian's they are the ones that look so well with nice sun tans.
And remember that those Aussies are sports mad, you need to see an Aussie Rules football game to appreciate what we mean by that! The Ashes and the cricket, the rugby and horse racing, the Melbourne grand prix, and the Melbourne cup are must see events.

Now if all that does not tempt you to come on down under, then have a think about the climate and why not time your visit and come along and see Australia’s spring time unfold, with nice temperatures at that time of year. Or if you like it hot then come in the Summer when temperatures really do soar! Anyone who likes warm weather and the sunshine will just love Australia’s climate.

Have we tempted you enough? We have then have a great Holiday in Sunny Australia! If you still think you cannot afford a Motorhome hire holiday check this out and visit Cheapa Campa they are very good for anyone on a budget holiday in Australia.
