Trip from Perth to Nullarbor.
To start a road trip you going to need:
Destination,
People,
Transport,
Money and;
Fun personality.
Our trip is from Perth to Nullarbor. It will last 7 days, witch 6 days are driving to the destination and the 7th day will be driving back. Distance from Perth to there is around 2000km. Average cost for the fuel would be 1200$ (includes driving there and back). We’re going to rent 4WD car and caravan.. For the transport, what we’re renting would be, cost 400$ per day. The 400$ will include 300$ for the caravan and 100$ for the 4WD. Food and drinks including wine and soft drinks is up to 700$ per day. That means that one person can spend 175$ for food and drinks (breakfast, lunch, dinner and after snack). On the way there, there’s several national parks, where you’ll be charged for the parking or any service, also tickets for the sights, will be up to 300$. National parks don’t charge per person, they charged by car. Because we got our caravan and 4WD, were planning to spend 200$ per person for the acumination. Caravan parks are usually around 30$/night by caravan.
Quick math, cost for the trip will be: 9400$. Split that amount with 4 people will make
