Everyone loves a bargain, and this app has hundreds of ways you can save money
on your Australian holiday. Not just for backpackers, Australia on the Cheap
is perfect for anyone who wants to save a little cash when travelling and
avoid getting ripped off in a tourist trap.

Full of money saving tips, this app has more than 450 free or cheap
attractions, scenic wonders, places to camp and good value places to sleep.
This app is not a wiki-scrape of other websites: every attraction, town, park
and lodging has been personally verified by the author.

We're not pretending that this app has the best of Australia covered - there
are lots of only-in-Australia experiences out there that really are worth the
money, like climbing Sydney Harbour Bridge, diving the Great Barrier Reef,
scenic flights over Kakadu or swimming with whale sharks at Ningaloo. But for
those days when you don't feel like opening the wallet or bruising the credit
card, this app will show you the best free and cheap things to see and do near
you and give you directions on how to get there.

Use this app to plan your trip and save your favourites for easy reference
later.

Australia's a big place, but you don't need to spend up big to see the best of
it. But because it's a big place, it's a big app, so please be patient when
downloading the images and maps - it may take a few minutes when it seems like
nothing is happening. Trust me, behind the scenes there's plenty going on!
