Australia is a vast  land with every imaginable type of scenery. Travelling with an RV - be it a caravan (travel trailer) camper-van or motorhome is the best way to see and experience our great country.
Travel writer Lionel Mussell's AUSTRALIA CALLING. The RV Travel Handbook ' replaces his top-selling ' The BIG ONE - the Caravanners Guide to the Round Australia Trip' It is a great source of information for anyone wanting to travel with their own accommodation in Australia whether it is a caravan (travel trailer), motorhome, campervan, fifth-wheeler or camping with a tent. (Reviews)  (Books)
'AUSTRALIA CALLING' includes Lionel's 'Route Notes' that cover every major sealed highway in the country and are a great basis for anyone planning or undertaking a big RVing adventure. Use them with a good map and add interest to your travels.

Northern Australia in the monsoon season is hot and oppressive with torrential rain a constant feature so planning a trip needs to take that into account. In the south it can be cold and not too pleasant in winter so ideally the aim would be to be in the north during May - October and in the south during the November- April period.

Caravan and RVing magazines that give a great insight into touring in Australia can be found on our 'Links'  pages and other sites there can help you find the right outfit to start your travels around this great and fascinating country.

Lionel is only too pleased to try to give helpful advice about any aspect of RV travel in Australia although he is quick to add that he has no formal qualifications for questions involving technical matters - just a wealth of practical experience.
