Australia Bus Passes - Oz Experience

Oz Experience is an awesome way to travel this incredible country. The hop-on, hop-off bus passes are valid for 6 months, giving you all the flexibility you need to complete your trip in your own time.

How do these passes work?
Oz Experience is a bus network that includes activities, allows you to hop on-hop off, has guided walks, goes to the hot spots and off the highways, books your accommodation (accommodation is not included in the pass price) and optional activities (if you want them to) with cool guides to give you a real experience with their local knowledge. It’s not just a boring old bus that gets you from A to B, while missing everything in between – it allows you to do more but take your time when you want to as well.

Which Pass?
Passes start at just £99. There are lots of passes to choose from and we have listed the most popular ones but please let us know if you don’t see what you are looking for and we can help find you the perfect pass! Bear in mind that practically all passes operate in both directions as well.

Why book the Ozexperience?
Here are just a few reasons:

Is food and accommodation included?
Generally no, but we will help you get both organised. There are ‘pay on board’ fees that cover some meals and overnight stops in remote locations, and these are explained below.

Are activities included?
Some activities are included, such surfing on the way to Byron Bay, guided walks in the Atherton tablelands, and a cattle ranch experience in Kroombit. Activities such as sky-diving, bungee jumping etc can be arranged for you but you will need to pay as you go!

What are ‘pay on board’ fees?
’Pay on board fees’ cover local payments, which are paid directly to suppliers for costs such as meals and accommodation. We are not charging you extra to travel with us. The only difference is that we take this payment up front.

In most cases you can pay for meals and accommodation yourself when you arrive at over night stops. However, because of where Oz Experience operates there are remote areas and you will often be camping, there are no hostels or the nearest supermarket is 100km’s away. What’s more it is impractical in a touring environment for an entire group to individually prepare their own meals.

You will definitely be getting value for money with the POB fees. In fact you'll be saving money. Let’s say, for example, if you were to buy your own meals you would be paying an average $10 a meal. Your minimum average accommodation costs per night would be $20, but we’ll organise the whole lot for you on certain sections of the trip for a lot less than this!
