Current pricing for Australia:

Short Time: Budget $53-82, Mid $78-181, Premium $235+
Long Time/Overnight: $158-432
Massage with extras: $26-109

These are approximate ranges as of early 2026. Prices vary by area, provider quality, and negotiation. Prices drop during low season.

Tipping is optional but earns you better service.

Best value: midweek afternoons.

Do your research, respect the locals, stay safe. — Northern Lights

First time was overwhelming but exciting. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

I was there in last month and prices were slightly higher. Spent about $50/day all-in.

My tip: go early evening.

Quick question — how was the transport?

What was your total spend roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

I was there in last month and prices were exactly as described. Spent about $120/day all-in.

My tip: try the local spots away from tourists.
