It's a must see destination.

In some countries you need a visa just to change planes. But where?

For example, for travel to, or transit through, the United States Australians may need a visa and should consult our United States travel advice. This is important advice for any Australian transitting the US en-route to Brazil, Canada, Jamaica and Mexico or another country in the Americas.

More broadly, Australians should ensure they have appropriate entry visas for the countries they are visiting and for the types of activities they intend to undertake. Generally there are specific visas for business or holiday travel. Before travelling overseas Australians should contact the respective foreign embassies and consulates in Australia to obtain the latest visa requirements.
