Advice from Traveller’s Auto Barn’s Peter Burke.
We interviewed several people for our recent Vantastic podcast. One of those people was Peter Burke, Managing Director of Traveller’s Auto Barn, Australia. Peter has a wealth of experience and knowledge of Australia’s roads and an appreciation for the problems a visitor goes through when buying or hiring a car.
The audio file below is our full interview — edited slightly to eradicate some of the sound problems we had.

Peter walks us through the advantages of buying or hiring a van or car for your Australian road trip. He also explains the services that his company offers their clients.
Australian driving conditions offer unique dangers to drivers. Peter tells us how to avoid hitting a Kangaroo, not get lost in the desert, the wonders (and prices!) of the Australian Auto Club and many other practical tips.
Peter infuses the interview with personal stories from the road and tales of some of the characters he’s met along the way.
WorldNomads is flying seven teams of people to Australia in order to jump in a pimped-out Traveller’s Auto Barn vehicle and take off on their own six-week road trip. You can find out more about Vantastic here or apply now. It’s an excellent chance to visit Australia and get some of these stories yourself.
