Backpacker hostels
As we have seen in the previous section there are numerous hostels to choose from. If you are travelling in Australia or New Zealand with the Oz or Kiwi Experience, or Magic Bus, they will phone ahead for you in the morning to secure your bed in the next hostel - a very easy way of travelling! But most of the time it is up to you!
The Travellers Lounge has teamed up with HostelWorld.com to book your backpacker hostel online to save you calling ahead.
You can even visit this site when you are away to reserve your next bed as you go along as many backpacker hostels have internet access.
