General Information
In Australia there are plenty of attractions for children, such as countless beaches, fascinating national parks, exciting zoos and interactive museums. Kangaroos, koalas, dolphins, whales, turtles and many other animals can be seen in the wild and sometimes even get close enough to touch. Many walking trails are suitable for baby carriages and are even designed as a varied circular hiking trail to avoid boredom when walking back. Nearly all the villages in the country have parkareale with meadows, picnic areas, free BBQs and playgrounds. In the larger cities of the warmer regions, colourful water parks have also been set up, which are very popular with children. If you are travelling in Australia with children, you will also receive some welcome discounts here. For tours, accommodation, museums, amusement parks or flights, it is not unusual to enjoy a discount of up to 50% or to get away completely free of charge. Children under the age of 5 are often admitted free of charge and can use public transport free of charge. Breastfeeding and nappy-changing in public are not a problem, even if it is not absolutely necessary, as there are usually enough nappy-changing and nursing rooms in public places.
