How can a family pace a two-week drive from Adelaide to Melbourne?

Book family room layouts and parking early for holiday dates, and keep meals and toilet stops flexible. A single long drive at the end can undo an otherwise relaxed plan.

Choose the inland or coastal route by your family's interests and the time you can spend at each stop. Check seasonal road and weather conditions before committing to side trips.

Sketch two-night bases before selecting attractions. Shorter driving days give children time for a beach, playground or easy walk instead of spending the whole holiday in the car.
