A TourRadar reviewer of the Sydney to Brisbane tour shares: "There was big age gap but we all really enjoyed every minute. The guide made even long driving journeys light and fast." The Whitsundays and Great Barrier Reef areas draw many solo travelers with organized group activities from snorkeling to sailing trips.
How easy is it to meet other travelers as a solo traveler on Australia/Oceania tours?
Meeting people happens naturally on guided tours across Australia and Oceania where solo travelers often make up the majority of groups. G Adventures reports that 73% of guests on their "Best of Australia" tour travel alone. Their tours build in social time through shared experiences like surf lessons in Byron Bay and group meals. A past TourRadar guest notes: "First time travelling alone and it was fantastic. The guide provides a lot of information and made the whole experience really brilliant."

Most tours provide a mix of 3-4 star hotels and local accommodations. The Kangaroo Island Adventure puts guests in boutique spots like the Pelicans Nest Hotel while East Coast routes feature central city hotels such as the Holiday Inn Potts Point Sydney. According to one TourRadar review: "The hotels provided were quite good and in some cases the upgrades were a welcome addition." You can choose between sharing a twin room with another solo traveler or paying extra for a private room.

While tours often include breakfast and some other meals dinner times typically allow for exploring local dining spots. A TourRadar traveler notes: "The guide was very helpful in recommending local places to eat and things to do during free time."
