Gold Coast tours & vacations

Absolutely. All passengers traveling with Intrepid are required to purchase travel insurance before the start of their trip. It's important to understand that each country you visit may have its own specific entry requirements, and some destinations mandate travel health insurance for all foreign travelers, regardless of their nationality.

Your leader will record your travel insurance details on the first day of the trip. Due to the varying nature, availability and cost of health care around the world, travel insurance is an essential part of every journey.

The best time to visit the Gold Coast is typically from late spring to summer and early autumn for hitting the beach.

However, winter (from June to August) offers clear blue days, crisp evenings and fewer crowds to share the sights with.

The Gold Coast is known to get very busy around mid-November to December due to the start of the Australian summer holidays. Avoid these months if you’d like a quieter visit to the city.

The best items to pack for a trip to the Gold Coast include a swimsuit, sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat.

While the Gold Coast is pleasantly warm throughout the year, it can get cool in the evening, so bring a lightweight sweater just in case.

The Gold Coast is a laidback destination where smart casual is the most common evening dress style.
