Planning itinerary in getting up to 23 to 30 this year of 2020.
Fast typos fixed.

Another tip of advice relevant to the topic is to research look up native currencies before entering another foreign land. I regret not having done this with Sweden, Czech Republic, Qatar. I really have no idea how much funds I wasted in accident. Oops, how can I not look that up before going.

Currency exchange is to usually avoid just enough in some or even with a lot of cases. Especially in giant sums of cash outside the card. Commission Fees Foreign Exchange rate is quite expensive. Almost atrociously. At higher rates. Just encourage using the Credit or Debit card only in a vast majority of financial moves. In using ATM's to take out funds that is already adapting to the national surroundings. Contact financial agents at bank of use before going. And they give you the phone number to call, and verify in any country if wanting the Card to go through without any interruption.

In relation to UAE, Singapore, Australia in this situation.
1 USD=3.67 United Arab Emirates Dirham=1.38 Singapore Dollar=1.49 Australian Dollar=1.55 New Zealand Dollar

Tons of currencies are not identical. Some examples 1 USD= 23,230.40 Vietnamese Dong!=4.37 Romania Leu=377.62 Kazakhstani Tense

Since you’re planning to stay for two-three days, why not book a stay at one of the beach hotels in Dubai? You can spend some leisurely time at the Rove La Mer Hotel. At the hotel, you can soak up the sun, sand, and the vibrancy of the beautiful locality of Dubai’s eclectic beachfront in Jumeirah. You can also find a plethora of activities to partake in and outlets to check out in the bustling backstreets of La Mer.

I am afraid that trip or anything similar will not be happening any time soon. Australia and. We Zealand will probably have closed borders for many more months.

Just on the Australia portion of the itinerary I'd suggest taking 3 days off Bris/GC and reallocate them for Melbourne. 3 days for Bris/GC/GBR, 7 days between Sydney and Melbourne with maybe a day trip to the Blue Mountains in Sydney or the Twelve Apostles in Melbourne.

I doubt if Perth is worth going to, if you have other stops in Aus. It just adds an empty 3,000 miles to your distance and cost. Consider Darwin instead, if you really want the outback stop.

Have you been to Perth? Perth is really nice. It is really worth the distance. There is a lot of cool things to see there. Before I went to Perth I had doubts that Perth would be a really good place to visit, but since I been there, I would love to go back there again.
