Itinerary

BEFORE YOU GO: LOG IN WHEN THE TRIP BEGINS

After booking, an email arrives with your Kuratour login, so check the spam folder if it seems slow. Download the free app onto an iPhone or Android phone, but hold off logging in until your trip starts, because the 7 days clock begins on your first login. While you still have Wi-Fi, download the tours and maps you plan to use. On a long outback drive mobile coverage can vanish for hours, and downloaded tours keep playing anyway, because the stories are triggered by your phone's GPS rather than by the network. Pick a narrator's voice and playback speed, and choose from 14 languages.

ON THE ROAD: DRIVING TOURS

A week suits one region done properly. In the Red Centre, the Ayers Rock guide (Uluru) talks you round a sandstone monolith that rises 348 metres above the plain and is sacred to the Anangu, its traditional owners. In the Top End, Darwin has the story of a city flattened by Cyclone Tracy on Christmas Day 1974 and rebuilt. Up north, Cairns is the gateway to two World Heritage areas, the Great Barrier Reef and the Wet Tropics rainforest. On the west coast, Broome sits beside Cable Beach, 22 km of white sand where camel trains walk at sunset. The commentary starts by itself as you arrive at each place.

ON FOOT: CITY WALKS AND THE AI TOUR CREATOR

Park the car and the same pass covers the walking tours. Adelaide is an easy start, a city Colonel William Light laid out in 1837 inside a ring of parkland. In Hobart, Australia's second-oldest capital, founded in 1804, the old sandstone warehouses of Salamanca Place make a fine stroll, and Launceston, dating from 1806, has Cataract Gorge a short walk from its centre. Where there's no ready-made tour, the AI tour creator builds one: name the place, pick a theme such as street art or hidden gems, set your pace and time, and it plans a narrated route with GPS directions, adding coffee or photo stops if you like.

YOUR DAYS, YOUR ORDER

There is no group and no timetable. Start a tour when you reach it, pause it for a swim or a lunch stop, and pick it up again the next morning. Each pass covers every driving and walking tour in the app, in Australia and overseas, with no ads. Entry fees for national parks and attractions are yours to pay along the way, and a phone mount and charger make life easier at the wheel. When the 7 days are up, the pass simply ends.

Good to know

Please note: After booking you get an email with your Kuratour login (check your spam folder). The pass starts on your first login, or you can redeem it later in the app under Settings > Manage Travel Passes, so log in only when your trip begins.
Suits: Self-drive and campervan travellers, families and anyone who prefers to travel at their own pace rather than in a group.

Travellers are advised to bring some cash, as ATMs and banks can be few and far between in the remote parts of the trip. It is handy to have some extra cash, as the tour does stop by local shops and cafes.
