Hi! Welcome to Australia! For a week-long trip in Gold Coast and Brisbane, I’d recommend looking into some of these options for tourist-friendly SIM cards:
Telstra Prepaid: They have a great network coverage, especially in urban areas. Their “Prepaid International Visitor SIM” offers decent data and talk time for a reasonable price.
Optus Prepaid: Optus also offers a “Tourist SIM” designed for visitors, with good data limits and coverage in cities. It’s usually quite affordable.
Vodafone Prepaid: Vodafone has competitive pricing and offers some great prepaid plans. Check their “International Tourist SIM” for a good deal.
You can find these SIM cards at the airport or at local convenience stores, and they typically come with a mix of data and talk time. Just remember to bring your phone unlocked, so you won’t face any compatibility issues. Enjoy your trip!
