Family holidays are a great opportunity to explore a little more of our own backyard and are more important than ever to reconnect as a family. Kids can swap virtual reality for actual experiences, creating lasting memories together, as they learn more about our Australian heritage and Indigenous culture along the way.

People seem to think that exploring our beautiful country is difficult or expensive. I’ve been on a few campervan trips now (I think this is my 7th) and I’m here to tell you that it doesn’t have to be. Campervan travel is a great way to get out, have the camping experience while still enjoying the creature comforts of home (a proper bed & kitchen!) and without all the packing up of tent camping.

This is one of the best things, if not the best, that you can do in the state of Victoria in Australia. Rent a campervan and go on an adventure. A trip where you experience the greatness and emptiness of Australia. A trip you will remember, because the landscape is even more beautiful after every bend of road. This is the ideal route for a road trip along the Great Ocean Road & Grampians National Park.

Whenever I’m cocooned in the office, I feel the pull of the open road, big skies, far horizons, red earth, friendly pubs, colourful characters, enticing road signs and a captivating sense of wonder. And then there’s the camaraderie with your partner or friend as you sing along to your favourite tunes, share lifer stories, tell jokes or solve all the problems in the world. It’s time, it’s space, it’s an escape, it’s a journey of many kinds – and there’s nothing quite like it.

Bicheno is a coastal holiday town full of things to do, prime fishing spots and equally rich in wildlife. The town is located in Tasmania’s breathtaking East Coast, north of Freycinet Peninsula. Whether you are on a charter boat to dive and fish its waters, or driving around town in a campervan, you would not run out of things to do in Bicheno. In fact, we have listed some of the activities you can do around town for that much-deserved holiday.
