Spring, summer, and holidays tend to be the more expensive times to visit Queensland, as they’re peak tourist periods. Flights from the US to Brisbane can range anywhere from $500 - $1500 round trip. You should expect to spend around $100-$150 USD a day during your trip in Queensland, including food, accommodations, and any activities you do. However, if you’re on a tight budget, there are also fun affordable options such as hiking, visiting beaches, or exploring museums – many of which won’t even cost a dime if you’re a student!
