  • In the month of November 2020, I moved from Sydney, NSW to Perth, WA.
    It was that time of the year where all the International and Local borders were shut because of Covid 19 and travelling was not easy.
    Being a Travel Adventure Photographer, I choose hard path over easy path. I look for challenges in every trip, such that i can make my trip more memorable.
    For this particular trip, i decided to travel in my old toyota corolla 1998 car.
    Yes! i opted car over flight.
    I travelled for 4000kms in 6days covering the best places across 3 different states, i.e., NSW, SA & WA.
    In this video i have covered the whole journey and the whole video was shot only using mobile camera

    I drove a Honda Civic from Melbourne to Perth in 1973. I left at 7am Saturday with a mate. We were both teenagers and I think there was about 1500 km of dirt road. I think it was the old highway as I remember going through Ivy Tanks and getting fuel. 47 degrees and no air-conditioning.
    We drove non stop and pulled into Perth 11 pm Sunday. Oh to be young again.

    I'm from Fremantle. Currently living in Sydney. When I was a teenager l used to hitch hike from Perth to Melbourne. I was pretty fearless like most teens though. Maybe more than most, especially as a girl. Took 3 days. Most of the truck drivers used amphetamines to get the drive done. Different times back in the 90s. There's nothing like hitting the open road for a trip. I forgot how opened Perth looks. You can see the sky and the beaches are the best.. Definitely the best sunsets over the Indian ocean.

      Hi Lillian. Left Ireland in 1986 at 18. Hitched from Perth to Melb took 3 days.
      Got a truckie (Bob) out of Footscray TNT back to Perth took 36 hours. In the 80's truckie all used tabs to stay awake and drive. After one tab I was counting telegraph poles to Ballarat. JB

    This is a great drive across Australia from someone in the USA that will never get to see it. Thank you so much! BTW, older Corolla's are well made legends as I could not imagine making that trip in an older European or American made vehicle, HA-HA. I also wanted to say what an eerie driving experience that must have been during Covid not seeing many people out and about and the local gov't mandate lockdowns one had to comply with. Those beautiful trees in Western Australia (around 13 mins. or so of video) during the day and sunset made me want to visit WA so badly. Not sure what type of trees they were but that area was incredibly beautiful. Thank you so very much for sharing your experience!

    I drove from Kalgoorlie to Sydney. Easy peasy. 3 nights accommodation in motels 4 days driving. Nullabar plains being the highlight. Loads of places to stop and eat, fuel up all the time. Take loads of water and food plus back up phone and a some sort of shelter/tarpaulin etc in case break down and stuck in the sun outside your car. Was a fantastic experience the light and vegetation out West was unbelievable.

    Nice one, Sadiq! I've done the Melbourne-Perth run well over a dozen times, starting in 1978. My late wife's parents lived in Perth, so we did the trip regularly. Even towed the Formula Vee race-car over in 1993 for the Nationals at Wanneroo (Barbagallo); got stopped five times by curious young police officers, wanting to perv on the car! It's a great run and I recommend it to anyone; I've done the drive solo and two-up and it's always nice; last time was in 2011. If I'm headed west I tend to pull up at around 4.00pm, as the sun's angle makes it hard to see the sides of the road and 'roo's/emu/wombat will make a real mess of the car if you hit one. Same in the early morning, too; give the wildlife time to disappear. I've had a few near-misses (one near Port Agusta got very close, as did one on the Newell some years earlier) and unfortunately having T-boned a 'roo west of Caiguna, I know first-hand that they can do a lot of damage!

      @JAI.H0 Plan the trip, hop online or visit the RAC for info and become a member. Get the car serviced and make sure that belts, hoses and tyres (including the correctly-inflated spare) are in good condition and that fluid levels are correct. Carry tools for tyre-change, plus extra water for you and the car. If you do break down, hazzard flashers on and stay with the car. East of Norseman, sleep in the motels (c.$165/night) attached to the gas stations, rather than in the car, that way you'll get a decent sleep and food. Allow an extra money over city prices for higher fuel costs in remote places - today (8/8/22) unleaded is $2.48 and diesel $2.88/Lt at Nullabor Roadhouse. (Check petrolspy.com.au for current pricing )
      If avoidable, don't drive for an hour either side of sunrise/set; wildlife will make a mess of the car if you hit something. Don't rush the trip and rest if tired; it's not a race, so take time out to see the many things along the way and be adventurous. Much better to arrive a day or so later than planned, rather than to arrive dead. It's a great trip that not many do, so enjoy it; it's something that you'll remember forever.

    Dear Sadiq, thank you for documenting your trip and sharing your video. I travelled solo from Melbourne to Perth in May/June 2021 (right before the Delta outbreak lockdowns reached VIC and NSW) and lived in Perth for the next 8 months before leaving driving from Perth to Sydney in February 2022 (in the middle of the Omicron wave lockdowns in Eastern Australia). At that time, the WA border was closed completely to the rest of Australia and I was the only car vehicle driving on that looong stretch of road from Norseman to Eucla.
    I wish I had documented my trip like you had. I must say, even though it was a solo road trip for me both ways, there was something adventurous and magical about the drive through SA and WA. The isolation, the nature, the sunrises/sunsets. And I'm sure you experienced this too, but driving from Eucla towards Norseman and even Calgoorlie I experienced the most interesting phenomenon: drivers waving to you from their vehicles. I never experienced this in Eastern Australia. THanks for oyur video. Cheers!

    Aussie Road trips are the best! Best trip of my life was driving a 1975 Kombi camper from SA to WA. Such a fun trip taking our time and stopping where we wanted to, finding cool places to check out and enjoy the wilderness. The roof blew off in a storm on the Great Australian Bight which was an experience! Did the rest of the trip with roof tied onto the car. It was winter and really cold on the Nullabor (desert) and the heater didn’t work. We used a hand held spotlight to get more light to drive at night. Sounds like it should have been a horrible trip but I loved it and would love to do it again sometime:)
    I grew up with Toyota Corollas. They older models were great cars!

    This brought back memories of my way home from my Lap of Oz after 2 and 1/ 2 years, I got back a few months before COVID hit. One thing I never did is drive at night, not with a 3 and 1/2 ton caravan and a new Ford Ranger Wildtrak, with roo bar and powerful spotlights. That was very brave of you

    I've been to Australia three times. I didn't like the terrain there. It's so flat, brown, boring and ugly. Sorry but, that's my opinion. The cities and people in Australia are wonderful but, the terrain there is ugly. The USA is much more beautiful than Australia.

      @Michael Davidson No, it won't work that way. The Australian government should build like say 100 new cities along with huge infrastructure projects for water, roads it will create millions of jobs and they can bring in people from all over the world for the construction alone.

      It's mind boggling to see the vastness of Australia and so few people living there, the population as of 2022 barely reaches 27million having in mind Australia is a continent by itself. Hope the government keeps on welcoming foreigners to make Australia the next superpower on earth.

    I did that in August 2004 in a 1989 Camry and came back 2 weeks later. It was so quiet and sparse out there. Beautiful trip, highly recommend it. Such peace and tranquility and somehow how the pace of life should be...then BANG back in the city again. But the 'batteries' got charged just the same.

      Even if you live in Sydney CBD, you still need a car . you cant go anywhere on the weekend without a car, unless you want to spend 24 hours a day ,7 days a week in the city.Public transport waiting for bus and train 20-30 min, then another 30-50 min for the trip. not worth it.
