Extras

To save you $$$’s we have kept the road trip price low giving you the option to add additional activities along the way.

– Accommodation not included; We are staying in a mixture of campsites and Hostels depending on the group and weather. There is often options to do either. Campsites are sometimes free or under $10per night, hostels are $25-35 per night and should be booked ahead of time. Talk to us on the bus about this!

– Food; At the beginning of each trip we all put in $70 into a ‘food fund’. This is then used to buy ingredients that make up the delicious lunches and breakfasts we eat along the way. For dinner we can grab pizzas together, cook up a shared meal. On average you can expect to spend between $5 to $10 a day for food.

– Sleeping bag/ Mattress/tent; BYO sleeping bag and mattress. Rent a spot in our share tents for $10 for the whole trip.
