Visit Australia This Fall

By , About.com Guide

Australia's Ayers Rock

Uluru (Ayers Rock)

Visit the land down under this fall while temps are still cool. Get the info you need from About Guide Larry Rivera on Australian trip planning - adventures, attractions, events and practical information and take a photo tour. And as a bonus, learn about visiting New Zealand on Larry's site, too.

Speaking of cooling temperatures, there is still skiing to be had - yeah, that's right: skiing in Australia and New Zealand!

See maps of all the Australian regions and major cities (Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane) as well as Tasmania - print them out before you leave and you can study them on the long plane ride. The maps are courtesy of the Australian Tourist Commission and more comprehensive than those you'll find in most guide books. Speaking of which, Larry has a great selection of guidebooks for you.
