Hi everyone,
I'm hoping to go and visit my best friend in New Zealand in March.
However, I thought I may as well see a bit of Aus while I'm over there, I have 4 weeks off work and want to spend approx 2 weeks in oz and 2 in nz.
I'll be on my own and am a bit scared, I've looked at organised tours, sounds great, but it's over £1k for a 2 week tour for Caines to Sydney, which is expensive, plus I don't really like what they have organised.
I only have one "must do" and that is to go diving at the great barrier reef, I'm not bothered about anything else, but would like to see a bit of sydney.
Has anyone done this on their own? Do you have any advice? I'll be fine in NZ as I'll be with my friend, just trying to work out the oz bit, will be a shame to fly into sydney then fly straight out again (most flights to nz go via oz)..... suggestions and advice very much welcome xxxx
