Services for Students
Studying in Australia

Due to the vast size of Australia, you may want to use a combination of mainly airplanes, trains and buses to get the most out of your travels and your budget.

There are fast train connections between all of the capitals on the mainland. Train tickets are more affordable than air tickets, but you need to have the time for the trip. To book tickets for train travel within Australia, visit www.railaustralia.com.au

Interstate bus lines are cheaper than the train, but slightly less comfortable and the journeys may take longer. To book tickets for coach travel within Australia visit www.greyhound.com.au

There are also private regional bus firms that travel to tourist destinations within and between states. Check the Internet or yellow pages for details.
