Not too much going on for this thread eh? Anyway, I'm travelling to GC next year for the annual airport marathon (weekend of 3rd July). I have my tickets and itinerary pretty much planned out with a group of friends but here are some questions:

1. 4 in 1 theme park tickets that are being sold seem to be only valid until 30th June 2016 - I'm hoping for something similar that will cover my period of stay (first week of July).
Question is, when will they start selling tickets like so or do they ever do?

2. Car rental - My friends and I are only 23 y/o by 2016, renting a car will have an upcharge for ages under 25.
AND additionally, rate for rentals are considerably higher during winter time.
Where to find best deals or are there better ways to do this?
Our plans are to drive for the whole trip. MEL>SYD>GC (2 weeks)

3. Activities - Always up for anything exotic to be part of. Technically nothing typical, something out of ordinary or completely random. So if anyone here has really sweet ideas, drop me a pm or just reply to me directly here.

And last of all.. Thank you!!

I'm using APEX http://www.apexrentacar.com.au. Very cheap for me compare to other international car hire, the package include insurance, gps and baby seat.
