Welcome to Backpack Down Under

Welcome to Backpack Down Under. We pride ourselves in being one of the largest and most comprehensive information websites for backpacker and student adventure travel around Australia. It doesn't matter if you are planning to backpack around Australia, or if you are just looking for a backpacker hostel or backpacker tour. We can assist you in your travels and book accommodation and tours online.

Information provided within this site is provided free of charge. We believe this is the future of travel publishing, besides you can only buy and carry so many guide books. To help cover the costs of this site we rely on advertisers and these we screen and select so that our site visitors feel very comfortable using them. And we do very much appreciate if you do click through to the advertisers and use their services.

 

We look forward to meeting you down under!
