Climate: When planning your trip we keep in mind your comfort therefore we recommend the following months for traveling to the southern hemisphere:
Tropical Australia: March – November (Cairns, Darwin): Australia's winter months, nice warm climate, low humidity and fine weather. No jelly fish and no cyclones. Average temperatures: 16°C - 30°C
The red interior of Australia: May – October (Uluru, Alice Springs, desert): although still hot during the day time it is much more bearable during winter than in the summer months, nights can be cold. Dry climate. Average temperatures: 5°C - 30°C
Coastal Australia: September – April (Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth): best time to visit is during the Australian summer, however this is also the busiest time. Sunny days, warm temperatures and mild nights. Average temperatures: 18°C - 30°C
Papua New Guinea and Oceania: May – October: the closer to the Equator the more humid the climate, which makes this time the mildest and most pleasant. Papua New Guinea is best visited during this time due to tribal shows taking place. A must-see if you are in the area…
Insurance: Travel insurance is every traveler's personal obligation.
