Plan Your Route

The key to a successful day trip lies in careful planning. Start by selecting a destination that is within a few hours' drive from your starting point. Consider factors such as scenic routes, attractions along the way, and the overall drive time to ensure you make the most of your day. All this made simpler and easier by using the Go Drivin App or Website. Everything is done for you, you just need to decide, what to do and how much to do.

Before you set off, make sure to pack all the essentials for a comfortable journey. This includes snacks, water, a first aid kit, sunscreen, and your phone which will double as a camera to capture all the memorable moments along the way as well as a device to guide you on your selected Go Drivin trip when using the App. Don't forget to dress appropriately for the weather and wear comfortable shoes for any spontaneous adventures.

Indulge in Local Cuisine

No road trip is complete without indulging in local cuisine. Take the opportunity to savour regional delicacies, roadside diners, or quaint cafes that offer a taste of local flavour. Whether you're craving fresh seafood by the coast or mouth-watering barbecue in the countryside, be sure to treat your taste buds to a culinary adventure. You are spoilt for choice on many of the trips through the country as well as the suburbs of greater Sydney.

Immerse Yourself in Nature

Nature lovers rejoice! A day trip is the perfect excuse to immerse yourself in the great outdoors. Whether it's a leisurely hike through a national park, a scenic picnic by the beach, or a refreshing swim in a secluded waterfall, there are endless opportunities to reconnect with nature and rejuvenate your spirit. Here is one example in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales, an hour west of the Sydney CBD.
