The Extraordinary Taxi Ride is an epic journey across Western Australia visiting some of the world's astonishing locations.

Following on from Queensland's Best Job in the World promotion - the winner has to schlep out to a Great Barrier Reef island for a year - WA is banking on their wild ride to spark more interest from New Zealanders. More than 60,000 visit each year.

Flights, accommodation, tours, adventure and the cab are on them - it's a taxi ride with no metre.

The ride takes you to the Bungle Range in World Heritage-listed Purnululu National Park; Ningaloo Reef, and the Horizontal Waterfalls in the Kimberley.

Passengers can apply for one of the 11 legs of the Extraordinary Taxi Ride by nominating why they should be part of the journey. Each winner will invite a friend to share in their adventure. Be prepared to travel between April and June.
