Best time to travel around Australia

hey Shane we too are looking at going for a 3 month pre travelling working holiday in May next year so am interested in the replys you get from people. We however are not sure where to start..meaning once we leave melbourne..we intend the 3 months to be a trial run for our extended working holiday the following year.. so would love hear any tips you get.

Hi, We are doing the same sometime next year and would appreciate to get any tips you may get from others who have done this before. We are planning on heading north and going around clockwise for 4-5 months.

Wouldnt mind knowing how much it would cost. We are in a 2006 Landcruiser and towing a caravan. Thanks heaps Donna

We are planning to do a 6 month trip starting July 2012 with two kids, leaving from Brisbane, going anti-clockwise. The main advice I have read off all the googling I've done is to make sure you do the top end during Winter and be down south by Summer. October is the start of the hot and wet season up north, so we're planning to be travelling South from Broome by late September.

Everything I've read also suggests going anti-clockwise so you're travelling with (not against) the prevailing winds.
