Question
I am planning a trip to australia this may. can u pls guide me how to go about it. i would like to see all the interesting places. am also tight budgeted. can rail be an option?

Answer
Sonali:
Rail is an option for travel although it is not especially inexpensive.  There are several bus lines that can save money but you need a lot of time if you do that instead of flying.  Australia is approximately the size of the US so distances between cities can be large.
The best way to go about planning a trip is to use the services of an Aussie Specialist Travel Agent who has been to Australia and visited the places you want to see.  And it will cost no more than trying to do it yourself.
