The Australian Bureau of Statistics recently announced that once again, we love nothing more than visiting our friends across the ditch. A staggering 1.1 million Aussies made the short journey across the Tasman in 2012. So what is it that drives us to explore this island nation?
Perhaps it’s the variety of thrill adventures we can enjoy, bungy jumping in the morning and white water rafting in the afternoon. Could it be the breathtaking scenery of untouched lakes and alpine terrain? We’ve heard it might be the friendly locals and rich cultural heritage. Maybe visiting Middle Earth and snowboarding is more your thing?
At Go Insurance we believe that it is every single one of these things that keeps us coming back to this beautiful country with something for everyone.
Where else do Australians like to holiday? Backed by the strong Aussie Dollar travellers are moving in record numbers to Indonesia, Thailand and the US with the number of departures for these destinations increasing every day.
