You will be accommodated in modern hostels right in the heart of the city, with options for both shared dormitory rooms and private double rooms.
To help you dive straight into the action, you can join our exclusive Meet Me intro package, which includes convenient airport transfers and a packed schedule of social events. You will explore the city alongside a great group of fellow backpackers, enjoying highlights such as a welcome dinner, a Sydney Harbour boat trip, a surf lesson, an excursion to the stunning Blue Mountains, and organized nights out together.
Beyond the social fun, our arrival package takes all the stress out of settling into a new country by handling the essential practicalities. We assist you with setting up your Australian bank account, obtaining your tax number, getting a local SIM card, and hosting an informative on-site meeting. To aid your search for employment, the package includes a 12-month membership with a dedicated Jobs & Work company, complete with job preparation sessions, CV writing assistance, interview tips, and help with your second year visa application.
Best of all, our arrival packages offer ultimate flexibility: they are valid for 12 months from your start date and can even be transferred between Australia and New Zealand if you hold a valid visa for both countries. Contact us today to learn more and begin your journey!
