Day-to-day itinerary

Day 1: Arrival in Sydney

After a long flight, with your phone and body battery in the red, you’re in no state to navigate new public transport systems. So, Welcome to Travel will pick you up from Sydney airport and deliver you straight to the award-winning Wake Up! hostel to recharge. Landing a few days before? No worries. Your airport pickup is included and can be arranged for any time on any day before the tour. Need extra nights accommodation? Let us know.

Day 2: Meet the group and walking tour

Today you'll meet your fellow travellers and sort all the essentials you need to start working in Australia (and more importantly, start getting paid!). This includes help setting up your Australian bank account, Australian phone number and tax file number. With the admin out the way, we head out on a guided walking tour of Sydney to find your feet and learn all about the city's people, history and culture.

We end the day with a spot of mini golf – the perfect way to get to know your new travel buddies.

Day 3: Work and travel advice

Today it's time to start thinking about what you'll be doing in Australia. We'll cover off everything you need to find a working holiday job here – including how to find work, how to lay out your resume, and how to access your exclusive Welcome to Travel work resources and job database.

We'll also fill you in on all of Australia's iconic destinations: what to do, see, and how to get around. Whether it’s skydiving or strawberry picking, the Community Team at Welcome to Travel will be able to help you.

Day 4: Aboriginal cultural tour and explore Sydney

Today we can discover Sydney and its suburbs at our own pace. Swim at Bronte Baths' ocean-water swimming pool or explore trendy suburbs such as Newtown and Marrickville.

This might also be the day you choose to use your Aboriginal Heritage Walk tour and learn all about the world’s oldest civilisation and their relationship to the land. If you don’t use it this day, you can use it on another day of your choosing.
