Tips for travelling in Australia

• Remember that Australia is a big country whose cities and attractions are spread far apart. If you have a packed travel itinerary, consider booking domestic Australia flights with Expedia to help you take it all in.
• You don’t have to tip. Tips aren’t used to supplement wages in Australia and it isn’t common practice to add extra money onto your bill in restaurants and bars.
• Australians drive on the left side of the road, which means the flow of traffic is to the left. Even if you aren’t at the wheel, make sure you’re comfortable with this arrangement when crossing the road.
