Jour 129 à 132 : Quito - EQUATEUR

Le départ pour l’Equateur a été très rapide. Nous avons réservé notre logement pour les premières nuits à Quito devant les portes de l’avion. Le vol se passe très bien. les compagnies low coast d’Amérique sont meilleures que celles de France, en l’occurence nous prenons notre vol sur Jet Blue. 

Nous arrivons à Quito, il est 22h30, l’aéroport se trouve à 40km du centre ville. Vu notre départ précipité, nous avons également oublié qu’il se situait à 2400 mètres d’altitude, il y fait donc assez frais à 22h30. Nous sommes en short mais heureusement en veste à manches longues. A 22h30, nous n’avons pas tellement envie de remettre les vélos sur roues et prendre la route. Déjà parce que nous sommes crevés mais aussi car la route n’est pas plate comme aux Etats-Unis. 

Nous allons donc chercher un moyen de quitter l’aéroport avec nos chargements. Nous allons y passer 2 bonnes heures et oui c’est ça la préparation. A l’aéroport, pas de pick-up et pas de taxi assez gros. Il faut donc faire appel à des sociétés privés. Ca a donc un coût. Après 2 bonnes heures de recherches nous n’arriverons pas à descendre à moins de 40 dollars. Et oui, en Equateur ils utilisent le dollar équatorien (c’est le même qu’aux USA). La banque centrale de l’Equateur frappe seulement les pièces et non les billets. Facile donc, pour ce premier pays en Amérique du Sud. Pas la peine de faire de change.

Nous arrivons vers 2 heures du matin dans notre petit air bnb. L’appartement est assez cosy et situé en plein centre. Nous n’allons pas trop sortir et surtout nous reposer. Nous appréhendons un peu le rapport à l’altitude, même si tous les américains nous ont dit que ce n’était pas si grave, nous ne sommes pas sereins. Nous avons pris 3 jours à Quito pour nous acclimater et surtout prendre un peu nos marques.

L’espagnol, que nous avons tous les deux commencer à apprendre en université, va nous mettre un sacré coup. C’est dur d’arriver dans un pays et ne plus pouvoir aisément communiquer. Nous visiterons un peu la ville, ferons réviser nos vélos chez un warmshower, qui tient une petite boutique de vélos, fulgur bicicletas.

Place Foch Quito

L’ambiance équatorienne nous séduira assez vite, en visitant le quartier mariscal sucre, la Plaza Grande et ses alentours. Nous ne pourrons pas vous dire si du haut du teleferico il y a une belle vue, mais en tout cas pour le peu visiter à Quito, nous avons aimé ce que nous y avons découvert. C’est une sacré ambiance, les gens sont dehors et vous vendent tout et n’importe quoi, surtout n’importe quoi. Nous allons même avoir du mal à trouver de bons gants chauds pour monter dans nos premiers cols à plus de 3500 mètres d’altitude. Nous en achèterons dans un magasin de sport assez cher, Marathon, des gants en polaire à plus de 20 dollars (les équatoriens ont vraiment de petites mains, sans généralisé bien sûr, mais les gants n’ont pas tenu et se sont décousus au niveau de l’annulaire, dont une des paires en seulement 3 jours…).

Nous nous trouverons bien fatigués, certainement à cause de l’altitude. Cette pause à Quito nous servira à rédiger l’article sur la Turquie, nous faire une beauté et nous préparer à être en complète autonomie, ce que nous n’avons jamais fait jusque là. Nous devons prendre suffisamment d’eau et commencer à aimer l’avoine. 

Quito, sera également le premier lieu de découverte des soupes équatoriennes avec ses pattes de poulets, son moté (maïs) et la banane plantain. Tout ceci pourra être savouré dans une formule qui s’appelle « l’almuerzo » qui veut simplement dire « déjeuner » en espagnol (nouveau vocabulaire).

Remise en beauté
Petite coupe

Reprendre le vélo nous rendra un peu anxieux à cause l’altitude. Egalement du fait que nous ne parlons pas bien l’espagnol (même pas du tout). Romain sera un peu plus inquiet par rapport à l’altitude, pour ma part ce sera plus la barrière de la langue qui me freinera. 

Jour 133 : Porvenir

Match de foot au loin

Quelle journée! Elle restera gravée dans ma mémoire à tout jamais. C’était tellement horrible. Après une belle sortie de Quito, qui nous angoissait particulièrement après avoir lu les récits des personnes qui ont également traverser l’Equateur à vélo. La ville est transformée en piste cyclable géante le dimanche. 

Mais après seulement quelques kilomètres, nous voici devant les premières difficultés, les voitures et les bus polluants qui te crachent leur belle fumée noire à la figure sur la belle PanaméricainePuis sont arrivés les chiens (des hargneux et en plus, souvent en bande) et enfin les pistes de terre, cailloux et pavé entre 15 et 20%.

Je ne vais pas vous dire qu’il n’y avait que du négatif, c’était beau mais qu’est-ce que c’était dur. J’aurai dû me douter que l’Equateur n’allait pas me laisser intacte. Même Romain a dû pousser le vélo tellement c’était impossible à pédaler. Franchement pousser un vélo c’est simplement bête, je me suis sentie comme un mulet…

Notre premier spot de camping nous laisse penser que nous aurons de magnifiques paysages pour la suite, mais que le froid sera également de la partie. Le lendemain me fait un peu peur, surtout après une « bonne » assiette d’avoine… Nous ne nous rendons pas encore compte que tout autour de nous il y a des dizaines de volcans. Que l’Equateur va nous mettre au challenge durant le prochain mois.

Jour 134 : Le Cotopaxi

Après une nuit assez froide et un petit dej d’avoine (un super régal) nous voilà repartis en direction du fameux Cotopaxi. Nous ne l’avons pas encore aperçu mais normalement ce sera pour aujourd’hui. Enfin, après avoir passé les chiens qui nous aboient dessus et nous montrent les crocs. Après les pistes de terres désastreuses à plus de 10% et le vent de face également.

Les premiers kilomètres qu’on aurait dû faire la veille, sont abominables. Le chemin qu’on emprunte est à priori privé, nous avons de la chance que le portail de celui-ci soit ouvert sinon ce serait demi-tour et passage par une autre route… Autant vous dire qu’on aurait abandonné.

Annia pousse le vélo dans des chemins aux pentes extrêmes Equateur
Mais non ça pousse

Le chemin privé terminé, nous arrivons enfin devant un panneau nous indiquant que nous sommes à l’entrée du parc du Cotopaxi. Ici normalement plus de chien et une route un peu plus plate. 

Mais les 10 premiers kilomètres de notre étape nous ont fracassés, nous nous arrêtons en plein milieu d’un virage de terre, à l’abri du vent. Le soleil nous réchauffe et nous fermons quelques temps les paupières. 15 minutes après notre pause, nous apercevons un vélo au loin, un tandem. C’est Vasou et Thimothée qui voyagent pendant 2 semaines en Equateur. Ah, enfin un nouveau couple de voyageur avec qui nous allons pouvoir partager notre voyage (surtout nos souffrances en ce moment). Ils parlent français, Tim est français et Vassou indienne, mais ils vivent à New-York. C’est naturellement, que nous repartons tous les 4 en direction du volcan. S’ils n’était pas arrivés je pense qu’on aurait eu beaucoup de mal à avancer.

Eux comme nous, sont dans le dur. Nous avançons petit à petit jusqu’au moment où enfin nous apercevons le mastodonte, le Cotopaxi. Le Cotopaxi est un des plus haut volcan actif de l’Equateur, il se situe à 5 897 mètres d’altitude. En quechua, langue locale, Cotopaxi signifie « cou de la lune ».  

Nous n’allons pas faire les cow-boys et monter en haut, de toute façon nous ne sommes pas équipés pour. Nous allons rester à son pied, le contempler à 3800 mètres d’altitude.

Ce soir nous camperons tous les 4 et nous ferons un feu à partir de bouse de vache.

Jour 135 : Sigchos

les belles routes d'Equateur

La nuit n’a pas été simple, Romain n’a pas pu dormir en partie à cause de l’altitude et des bruits qui nous ont réveillé juste après nous être endormis. Des bruits de bête bizarre, nous hésitons encore entre un ours (apparemment dans ce pays vous pouvez apercevoir des ours à lunette, un ours gentil), un cheval en rut ou une vache possédée…

Encore une étape difficile mais belle. Voilà comment je qualifierai l’Equateur, beau mais dur. La descente se fait en partie sur une route faite de cailloux et de terre dure, dans un brouillard compact, je n’y vois rien à plus d’un mètre.

Nous goûterons au thé de coca, cela nous permettra de descendre un peu moins gelés. 

Thé à la coca

Les chemins que nous empruntons sur la première partie de l’étape sont horribles, c’est du sable, c’est complètement perdu. Nous sommes clairement dépaysés. En tout cas pour ma part je suis transportée dans un autre monde. C’est vraiment un nouveau pays, une nouvelle culture tout est différent. D’ailleurs je me demande bien comment Vasou et Tim arrivent à avancer en tandem sur ces routes, bien que souvent nous soyons tous en train de pousser. Sur un tandem, ça me parait bien compliqué. 

Aujourd’hui nous devons faire beaucoup de kilomètres et en fin de parcours nous décidons avant même d’y arriver que nous ferons du stop pour monter le dernier col, afin d’arriver sur la route menant à la lagune Quilotoa. 

Pour la pause déjeuner nous nous arrêtons dans une petite cantine équatorienne. Vasou et Tim mangent tout ce qu’on leur sert et boivent également le jus servi en accompagnement du plat. Nous depuis que nous sommes arrivés en Equateur, nous évitons les légumes crus que l’on nous sert et le jus, nous le contemplons avec les yeux… Nous les regardons manger tout ça et surtout boire leur jus tout en salivant. Bon s’ils boivent le jus alors pourquoi pas nous! Nous sautons le pas et délectons ce très beau jus que l’on nous sert et qui est fait avec des fruits frais. Un régal. Nous évitons encore les légumes (on ne sait jamais, un sur deux c’est déjà pas mal).

Déjeuner équatorien

Après le déjeuner nous avons de la chance, la route est asphaltée et les paysages magnifiques. C’est génial de ne voir que de belles cartes postales autour de soi. Même quand c’est dur, du coup c’est plus simple. Nous avons une grande descente avant le dernier col de la journée. Nous nous arrêtons juste avant la tombée de la nuit et par chance, 2 pick-up passent à ce moment-là. Ils nous prennent sans problème et nous montent au village de Sigchos, nous leur demandons également s’ils ne connaissent pas un hôtel. C’est avec une réelle gentillesse qu’ils nous déposent juste à l’entrée d’un hôtel. Bon ce n’est pas le 5 étoiles c’est sûr mais nous avons un lit et ça c’est toujours mieux que d’être à 3800 sous la pluie dans la tente.

Jour 136 : Le Quilotoa

Crémage du matin

Aujourd’hui grosse étape, encore (je ne sais même plus pourquoi je l’écris, c’est tous les jours des grosses étapes). Un col de 40km nous attend bien gentiment. Apparement les derniers kilomètres sont terribles.

Bon avant ça il faut se cremer (le soleil est terrible dans ce coin de la terre, nous sommes juste à côté de lui, il faut absolument se protéger), prendre un bon petit dej et enfourcher le vélo.

Sur la route du Quilotoa

C’est complètement fou, aujourd’hui nous devons atteindre 3900 mètres d’altitude. Pour moi qui ne va que très rarement au ski et qui n’ai connu que les chaines montagneuses françaises, c’est impressionnant. Chaque matin je me réveille et me demande si je vais y arriver. 

Les paysages sont dingues, vraiment c’est incroyable. Je ne me doutais pas du tout que l’Equateur c’était ça. 

Moutons noirs

Pour la pause déjeuner, nous trouvons un bel endroit et surtout du wifi, internet nous manque vite. Sur la route, nous croisons nos premiers lamas. 

Ce n’était pas des bêtises, les derniers kilomètres sont rudes. Les 3 derniers en particulier. Romain m’accompagne sur ces 3 derniers kilomètres, je n’en peux plus, le vent est fou et de face. Je n’ai plus de souffle. Il faut que je m’arrête tous les 50 mètres. Pas la peine de vous dire que c’était dur, vraiment très dur, Vasou et Tim sont derrières, ils avancent également tant bien que mal. 

Nous y sommes enfin au sommet et franchement je suis encore fière comme pour le Cotopaxi. Je l’ai fait, moi, Annia qui n’avait jamais fait de vélo avant ce périple, qui n’était pas sportive pour un clou… Tout est possible si je suis arrivée jusque là. 

Mais, je ne peux pas m’auto congratuler toute seule, je dois également cette performance à Romain qui m’a aidé à grimper. Franchement seule, je ne pense pas que j’aurai pris ce chemin (et oui il y avait d’autres itinéraires possibles…)

Nous arrivons tard au Quilotoa, nous attendrons demain pour voir la lagune. Pour le moment un gros dodo d’impose à nous.

Route défoncée Quilotoa

Jour 137 : Latacunga

Pas de surprise encore une journée terrible. Le dénivelé va être important et nous passerons notre premier col à 4000. J’en ai le souffle coupé rien qu’en y pensant.

Mode pause photo

Nous prenons tout de même le temps de contempler la lagune Quilotoa. Qui est très belle malgré le vent.

Le Quilotoa c’est un volcan, dont le sommet se situe à 3914 mètres d’altitude. Depuis le sommet, nous avons pu observer d’autres volcans, comme le volcan Illiniza qui est composé de 2 sommets. C’est d’une beauté extraordinaire.  

Après les yeux, c’est aux jambes de prendre un coup. Je commence à fatiguer de toutes ces montées et ces descentes. Car qui dit grosse montée, derrière tu as forcément de grosses descentes. Les descentes c’est aussi physique, surtout après de bonnes journées de vélo.

La ville de Latacunga n’a pas retenu notre attention, nous y sommes arrivés de nuit, il y avait un bordel monstrueux. Nous avons trouvé un hostal pour la nuit. Vasou et Tim ont un ami qui s’est retrouvé ici, Stéphane, nous allons rejoindre pour le dîner. 

Jour 138 à 140 : Banos

A la queue leu leu

L’arrivée à Banos (ville où nous faisons enfin une pause) n’a pas été des plus simple. Déjà je me sens épuisée, je commence donc à être de très bonne humeur et le paysage après la grande descente de Latacunga, devient plus vert, moins ensoleillé. Ce n’est pas un paysage qui me plait particulièrement.

Cette étape marquera la fin de notre voyage avec Vasou et Tim. Eux partent en direction de l’Amazonie Equatorienne et nous, nous décidons de continuer dans la cordillère occidentale. 

A Banos, je me rends compte que Romain disait vrai il y a 5 mois, j’ai un petit coup de blues. J’ai une terrible envie de rentrer en France. Ma famille me manque. Ces 5 derniers jours m’ont claqué. Je suis un peu en déprime ici. Je pense pourtant que venir à Banos c’est génial pour y faire toutes les activités proposées, comme la sortie en Amazonie, le canyoning, rafting… 

Je pense également que l’espagnol que je ne maitrise pas du tout, ne m’aide pas à aller mieux. C’est dans ces moments là que tu regrettes de ne pas avoir assez fait d’efforts lorsque tu en avais la possibilité. J’aurai du apprendre l’espagnol avec plus d’assiduité.

Bref, je ne vais pas m’attarder sur ce moment, mais c’est un moment que j’ai vécu. C’est ce qu’on appelle le mal du pays.  

Ce sera l’occasion tout de même de manger au mercado central (un vrai repère pour les équatoriens) et également de revoir pour une soirée Vasou, Tim et Stéphane (le copain de Latacunga) et savourer de bonnes spécialités vénézuéliennes, les arepas et les empanadas, des galettes de maïs fourrées de bons ingrédients. Une bonne adresse à Banos, larepas to go

Jour 141: Riobamba

Chute de Pierre sur la route

La pluie nous accompagne au départ de cette nouvelle étape. Pas trop envie de partir (pour le dénivelé qui nous attend). Nous décidons de tester l’autostop pour le début d’étape au moins pour les 15 premiers kilomètres qui ne font que monter. En sortant de l’auberge où nous sommes restés, nous nous dirigeons vers la station service et demandons au premier pick up que nous voyons et ça marche de suite. Est-ce qu’on aurait un peu de chance aujourd’hui?

Il nous reste quand même encore 2 cols. Nous arrivons à les passer mais c’est difficile. Nous arrivons tard à Riobamba. Nous trouvons un hôtel près des quartiers de la gare, nous tombons sur un gérant passionné de vélo, qui nous fait donc une petite réduction.

Hola d'Equateur

Ce n’était pas une des plus belles étapes que nous ayons faite. Normalement, ceux qui passent par Riobamba, se dirigent vers le volcan Chibomrazo. Le volcan le plus haut de la sierra Equatorienne, à plus de 6200 mètres d’altitude. Mais cette fois, ce ne sera pas pour nous. Déjà la route est difficile en bas des volcans alors on se le réserve pour une future visite de l’Equateur.

Jour 142 : Guamote

Le lit était parfait cette nuit, dur de se lever et repartir, sachant que nous aurons encore une succession de cols qui va nous attendre sur la route. Nous avons décidé de faire des étapes plus petites pour être moins fatigué à la fin.

Valeurs des pompiers

C’est un nouveau voyage qui va commencer, nous avons envie de rencontrer la population équatoriennes. Nous décidons donc de suivre les conseils des voyageurs et de taper à la porte des bomberos, des pompiers, qui semblent accueillir assez facilement dans ce pays.

Le village où nous nous arrêtons et assez vide. Mais nous allons y passer un moment puisque nous arrivons assez tôt aujourd’hui après une quarantaine de kilomètres. Les bomberos nous accueillent volontiers, nous pouvons poser notre tente dans leur salle de sport et de détente. 

Mais le contact sera quasi inexistant. Les pompiers de garde, restent dans leur chambre et jouent aux cartes. Nous n’osons pas trop les déranger. 

Jour 143 : Chunchi

Nous continuons notre route à travers de beaux paysages. 

Nous roulons beaucoup aujourd’hui, la route est plaisante et nous nous sentons bien. Peut-être que nous le paierons demain, pour le moment nous continuons à rouler. Nous nous retrouvons même au dessus des nuages, Romain adore cette sensation.

Les bomberos de Chunchi nous accueillent volontiers, encore une fois. Nous ferons la connaissance de Diego, un bomberos, qui nous parle de son pays. C’est avec plaisir que nous passons un moment avec lui. Nous apprendrons même ce que signifie « gringos » selon Diego. Et oui car beaucoup de monde sur la route nous lance des « gringos » par ci par là, mais nous ne savons pas trop ce que cela veut dire. Apparemment cette expression serait apparue quand les mexicains passaient illégalement la frontière des Etats-Unis, dès qu’ils apercevaient un soldat américain qui surveillait la frontière, ils disaient « green, go! ». Les soldats américains ayant un uniforme vert. Le mot a donc un sens péjoratif mais il est entrait dans le vocabulaire des Andins, qui appellent les « blancs » comme ça maintenant. 

Chez certains équatoriens, nous ressentons bien que cela n’est pas dit méchamment, chez d’autres nous pouvons ressentir une certaine animosité quand ils le disent. Mais pour Diego nous ne sommes pas des « gringos » car pour lui ce sont les américains, qui sont appelés comme ça. 

Jour 144 : El Tambo

Hier nous n’avons pas pris de photo de Diego et ce matin ils sont partis en mission. C’est dommage nous ne pourrons pas avoir une photo souvenir. C’était le premier équatorien avec qui nous avons essayer d’avoir une vraie discussion et un avec qui le contact était bien passé. Nous le croiserons sur la route lorsqu’ils reviendront de mission, un au revoir rapide.

cochon en Equateur

La route est vraiment belle jusqu’à ce que nous rejoignons la Panaméricaine, tout était bien. Après les derniers kilomètres ont été un enfer. La circulation est devenue horrible et le vent s’est levé. Tout cela rajouté au dénivelé, nous arrivons crevés. Mais les bomberos sont vraiment gentils ici, ils nous invitent à boire un café et manger des chips de banane plantain. Nous passerons un bon moment avec l’équipe.

Pompiers El Tambo
banane plantin

Depuis que nous sommes arrivés en Equateur, il nous tardait de gouter à des fruits exotiques. Nous découvrirons sur le marché un nouveau fruit, la granadilla. Un fruit qui deviendra un de nos préféré et il ne coûte pas si cher. Il ressemble à un fruit de la passion, il faut enlever une coque pour savourer les grains mous à l’intérieur. Drôle de sensation au début. 

Hébergé par les Bomberos

Jour 145 : Azogues

Il fait chaud à Canar

Nous nous arrêtons avant Cuenca pour avoir une sorte de petite étape le lendemain et se sentir en pause pendant 2 journées. 

Nous allons dormir chez les bomberos d’Azogues, qui ont hébergé un couple la veille qui voyage depuis plus de 12 ans. Impressionnant, peut être que nous les croiserons sur notre route. 

Cette fois-ci nous dormirons dans la salle de cours des pompiers.

Jour 146 à 147 : Cuenca

Cuenca église Equateur

L’arrivée à Cuenca est difficile comme pratiquement dans toutes les grandes villes. 

Nous nous reposerons dans un air bnb tenu par un allemand qui est venu s’installer ici à Cuenca pour y faire des études de tourisme.

Nous reverrons pour une dernière soirée Vasou et Tim. Vasou cuisinera pour l’occasion un super plat indu-équatorien. Nous passerons une excellente soirée. Leurs hôtes nous prépareront un canelazo, une boisson typique d’Equateur. Attention l’abus d’alcool est dangereux pour la santé. Mais ne vous inquiétez pas nous avons été assez sages.

J’ai toujours un peu l’envie de rentrer en France. Les pauses sont l’occasion de faire le plein de famille (par vidéo).

La ville de Cuenca est charmante mais pour tout vous dire je ne suis pas émerveillée, peut-être à cause la fatigue. En tout cas je n’ai pas trop envie de bouger, ce sera donc le repos et petites balades qui rythmeront notre séjour à Cuenca. 

Jour 148 : Cumbe

Ecole Equateur

Cette journée est marquée par la rentrée scolaire. Et oui, ici comme en France, les écoles font leur rentrée. Mais la particularité de l’Equateur c’est que tous les élèves ont un uniforme, de la plus petite section de maternelle au lycée. Tous les établissements ont leur propre uniforme, c’est un peu la compét entre les écoles.

Normalement l’étape sera une petite étape. Nous espérons pouvoir faire de l’autostop, arrivés dans la dernière petite ville avant un col de 20km. 

Le stop ne fonctionnera pas, nous resterons donc dans la junta parroquial pour la nuit. C’est une sorte de bâtiment qui appartient à la municipalité d’El Cumbe. Aujourd’hui nous recevons beaucoup d’informations mais nous ne comprenons pas tout. Apparemment le chemin que nous allons prendre est un chemin de pèlerinage, il y aurait des refuges tout au long de la route. C’est un pèlerinage en faveur de la Vierge del Cisne. Ici en Equateur beaucoup de villes glorifient une vierge en particulier. 

Cumbe Equateur

Jour 149 : San Felipe de Ona

Quelle journée! Nous n’avons pas beaucoup roulé aujourd’hui, nous avons essayé. Mais c’était terrible, arrivés à plus de 3500 mètres d’altitude. Le crachin qui se transforme en grosse pluie et qui nous gèle! Quel enfer! Nous avons fait de l’auto-stop après 18km de col. Les personnes qui s’arrêtent gentiment nous prendre, après 45 minutes d’attente, n’ont que de la place à l’arrière du pick-up (dehors). Nous essayons tant bien que mal de nous protéger du vent et de la pluie. 

Ils nous arrêtent dans le village de La Paz, nous rentrons très vite dans un restaurant nous réchauffer. Il nous faudra bien 2 heures pour nous sentir un peu mieux. Nous ne voulons pas du tout rester ici, nous avons vraiment envie de descendre plus bas. Nous décidons donc de payer un jeune du village pour qu’il nous amène plus loin. 

Pendant que nous prenons notre almuerzo (ils n’ont pas trop le sens du service dans les Andes, j’étais entrain de me changer quand la femme a rapporté la soupe chaude, qui ne l’était plus quand j’étais en état de manger…) je regarde par la fenêtre et je vois tous ces gens qui font le pèlerinage. Il y a beaucoup de jeunes. Sur certains tu peux voir la souffrance sur leur visage, sous leur cape de pluie (en plastique). Ils essaient de se changer à l’abris des restaurants qui arborent tous, sur leur fenêtre, la Reina del Cisne. Ils mettent des sacs en plastique dans leur paire de chaussures pour éviter que la chaussette qu’ils viennent de changer ne soit retremper. 

Pour cette nuit ce sera encore les bomberos qui nous hébergeront. C’est une petite caserne mais elle fera bien l’affaire. D’ailleurs ce soir nous aurons même le droit à un petit radiateur électrique pour nos petits pieds. J’ai oublié de vous dire qu’en Equateur, il n’y avait pas de radiateur. Puisqu’il ne fait apparemment jamais très froid (sauf à plus de 3000 mètres, sinon les équatoriens préfèrent s’habiller).

Un autre cycliste viendra nous rejoindre, Pierot, un italien qui est parti d’Ushuaia il y a peu près un an. Il est 100% camping lui, il adore dormir dehors et se faire sa popote tous les jours. Il nous donnera quelques précieux conseils pour la suite du voyage, il nous donne quelques appli pour la partie Nouvelle-Zelande et une qui nous servira certainement partout ailleurs, iOverlanders. C’est une application qui te sert à trouver un bon spot de camping, un bon restau ou quelques indications sur la route où tu es. Vraiment pratique. En plus il nous donne une carte sim péruvienne qui nous servira certainement (on aura peut être un meilleur accès à internet qu’ici). C’est incroyable tout ce que tu peux apprendre des autres. En plus nous sommes tellement curieux que nous posons toujours un million de questions à toutes les personnes que l’on rencontre. 

Rencontre avec Pierot

Jour 150 : Saraguro

J’ai l’impression qu’à chaque dernière étape ou quand approche la fin je deviens subitement plus fatiguée que les autres jours. Cette étape a été particulièrement dure pour moi. Je ne sais pas vraiment si je suis faite, si mon corps était prêt, à faire autant de vélo dans les hautes montagnes en si peu de temps. 

Romain me pousse littéralement sur les deux derniers kilomètres.

Ce soir nous dormirons pour la dernière fois chez les bomberos, en Equateur. Ils se situent juste à côté d’une arène de combat de coqs. Juste horrible, franchement à ne pas faire si vous voulez dormir un peu.

Nous nous promènerons un peu dans la ville, cette ville est particulière du fait de sa population. Ils sont habillés d’une manière significative, les hommes ont des pantalons courts noirs, avec des ponchos noirs et une tresse. Les femmes sont un peu moins marquées que les femmes des autres tribus. Elles sont aussi habillées de noir. J’aime bien leur tenue. Mais celles des autres tribus, avaient quand même des chapeaux de toutes les couleurs et des jupes assez flashies et plutôt marrantes. Malheureusement nous n’avons pas de photos de ces personnes, nous n’osions pas demander car nous avions l’impression de les prendre pour des « bêtes de foire ». En plus les Equatoriens sont très timides et dès que nous leur parlions ils étaient plutôt brefs dans leurs échanges.

Nous croiserons un bomberos complètement saoul dans la rue et un ami à lui apparemment complètement beurré, lui aussi, puisqu’il dormait dans un caniveau ou était en plein coma éthylique. Le pompier viendra nous taper la discussion pendant au moins 45 minutes avec une forte odeur désagréable, devant notre tente. Mais bon, c’est un autre contact équatorien qui nous aura bien fait rire. 

Les coqs la nuit sont calmes mais dès les premières lueurs du jour, ils sont bien réveillés. Il est 4heures du matin, nous n’arrivons pas à dormir, c’est simplement pas cool.

Dur le dodo au froid

Jour 151 à 154 : Loja et ses alentours

La route est compliquée surtout le début, c’est peut être normal car c’est le dernier jour pour moi. En plus la nuit a été dure avec de ses pauvres coqs.

Mais nous allons rencontrer énormément d’équatoriens à vélo, qui eux font le pèlerinage de Cuenca à Loja pour la Vierge. Ils ne dorment apparemment pas et essayent de faire la route le plus vite possible. Nous rencontrons des jeunes et des moins jeunes. Nous roulons de 8 à 10km/h. Les Equatoriens, eux, n’ont pas l’air d’avoir trop l’habitude de faire du vélo, ils essayent d’aller plus vite que nous sur des pentes en moyenne à 5%, ils s’arrêtent très vite et poussent le vélo. Nous les rattrapons, nous nous suivons.

Au début nous sommes sur la Panaméricaine, puis nous passons sur la route secondaire, empruntée par les pèlerins. Elle est très belle, mais nous avons un peu de vent de face. Sur la route nous allons rencontrer plusieurs personnes qui aident les pèlerins à finir la route. Ils nous offrent à boire et des gâteaux, puis un autre pickup s’arrête pour nous faire goûter une nouvelle spécialité, les tamales. Je prend le premier, il est entouré d’une belle feuille de bananier. Je prend le tamales, je commence à le mettre dans ma bouche, l’homme me regarde bizarrement. Moi je trouve ça bizarre, la texture, je n’arrive pas à mâcher. Je me demande si je le mange bien. Je lui demande. L’homme me dit qu’il faut que j’enlève la feuille, ah oui c’est vrai c’est meilleur, il aurait pu me le dire avant…

A Loja, nous allons être accueillis par Elena et Renato. Romain est resté en contact avec Benjamin, avec qui il travaillait à Marseille. Benjamin adore l’Amérique du Sud et nous donne beaucoup de conseils depuis que nous sommes arrivés sur ce nouveau continent. Grâce à lui, nous pouvons nous arrêter chez des locaux. Chez sa belle famille. 

Elena nous accueille avec un bon repas. Le repas est à l’image de ce que nous avons mangé pendant notre séjour en Equateur. Du poulet, du riz et des légumes. En accompagnement nous avons un bon jus de fruits frais. Les Equatoriens ne boivent pas beaucoup d’eau essentiellement des jus en accompagnement des repas.

Nous allons vivre pour la première fois un tremblement de terre assez impressionnant de magnitude 6.2, ce n’est bien sûr pas énorme mais quand même. Même Elena et Renato sont un peu impressionnés alors qu’ils avaient l’habitude d’en vivre à Santiago de Chili, où ils ont fait leurs études. 

Elena nous fera visiter la ville de Loja, nous devons également acheter nos billets pour le Pérou. Nous ne voulons pas perdre trop de temps sur des routes qui nous semblent peu intéressantes. Il faut que l’on en gagne, du temps, pour ne pas rater de futurs beaux spots, l’Amérique du Sud c’est tellement grand. Romain est toujours très frileux à l’idée de prendre du bus, il veut relever le challenge en entier. Mais il comprend bien que temporellement c’est impossible. Il faut donc bien avancer en bus si nous en prenons un, nous décidons donc de partir jusqu’à Trujillo au Pérou.

Via2roues à Loja Equateur

Nous aurons le plaisir de manger au mercado central pour la pause dej de Renato, avec un Romain tout fier de sa nouvelle acquisition, un maillot de foot d’une équipe locale. Il souhaite avoir un maillot de chaque pays traversés, pas forcément l’équipe nationale mais celle qui est la plus représentative du pays.

Nous allons voir le feu d’artifice dédié à la Reina del Cisne. Alors comment vous dire, en Equateur, il vaut mieux ne pas s’approcher de trop près des feux d’artifice. Il n’y a aucune barrières de sécurité, vous pouvez donc vous approchez au plus près mais c’est à vos risques et périls. Les retombés des feux viennent directement sur nos têtes. C’était un beau spectacle de cache cache avec les retombés. 

Nous resterons avec Elena et Renato pour une journée de plus et ils nous feront visiter une partie amazonienne de l’Equateur, en la ville de Zamora. C’est un endroit qu’ils apprécient. Nous y passons un très bon moment, nous boirons quelques bières dans la rivière, le Rio Zamora.

Nos sentiments

L’Equateur, un pays que nous ne connaissions pas du tout avant d’y atterrir. Même les îles Galapagos, je ne savais pas qu’elles appartenaient à ce pays, avant ce voyage. 

Nous avons trouvé les Equatoriens timides, en tout cas dans la partie que nous avons traversé, mais ils sont toujours agréable quand on leur demande de l’aide. La nourriture est bonne.

C’est notre première expérience des Andes et quelle approche, belle mais dure. Les routes sont très pentues. Les paysages par rapport à tous ceux que nous avons traversés n’ont plus rien à voir. C’est immense ici, c’est incroyablement haut et beau.

Premier coup de blues, la France nous manque. Je pense que pour ma part c’était surtout dû au fait que je ne parle pas du tout l’espagnol, en arrivant. Les Equatoriens parlent peu l’anglais, les contacts sont compliqués. Le voyage est différent ici. Du Nord au Sud, le pays est différent. Les cultures s’entremêlent, entre les traditions Incas et l’américanisation, c’est un réel choc culturel.

Les chiens nous feront souffrir, ils sont trop agressifs. 

Nous regretterons de ne pas avoir fait plus de côte Pacifique du pays, voir les plantations de bananiers, de chocolat, les plages dédiées au surf.

If you’ve ever used Osko or instant bank transfers, that’s the tech working under PayID. Behind the scenes, it’s the same account – but the user experience is way smoother. PayID has become a go-to payment method of Aussie players 🇦🇺 looking for a fast, secure, and easy way to move money at online casinos. Who do I get in touch with in case I have some problems with my PayID deposits and withdrawals across Australian online casinos? Only here at WoO, you will find over 60 great candidates to check out in your search for the perfect Australian online casino to join where you could use PayID for your deposits and withdrawals. Still, many do it on their own will, trying to get a world-class online gambling time, and no one is punishing them for it. While land-based gambling is legal, online gambling is not.
It’s Australian-made, mobile-ready, and gives players the freedom to deposit and withdraw with ease. Where speed, simplicity, and security matter, PayID offers all three without jumping through any unnecessary hoops. So you’re operating within trusted, proven, familiar and regulated systems. And because you don’t have to enter any personal financial info directly on the casino site, the risk of data theft or card fraud is far lower. If a casino supports PayID for payouts, you can typically get your winnings within a few hours. One of the standout features of PayID is the speed of withdrawals.
Instead of fumbling with BSB and account numbers like it’s 2005, you just use an email or a phone number. PayID Casinos offer a range of benefits to players in Australia, including instant deposits, enhanced security, simplified withdrawals, no fees, accessibility, and transparency. This means that players can instantly top up their casino accounts and dive straight into the action without waiting for funds to become available. As time passes, it will undoubtedly create something of a divide between those sites that are willing to keep up, and the sites that are starting to fall behind.
PayID provides Australian online casino players with a practical and secure method for handling deposits and withdrawals. Instant transactions without incurring credit card fees or lengthy processing times make PayID an appealing payment method—just make sure your bank supports it before committing. PayID online casinos in Australia offer an ideal payment option for players who prioritize convenience, speed, and security in their casino payments. PayID recognizes that security is of utmost importance for online gamblers and offers several safeguards to keep your funds secure. https://blackcoin.co/minimum-deposit-casino-sites-with-payid/ payments are easy and accessible and supported by most Australian banks and financial institutions, providing access to various players. As part of Australia’s New Payments Platform (NPP), PayID allows instantaneous bank transfers. PayID is a payment system that connects your bank account with an identifier like your mobile number or email address, allowing for more effortless money transfers between participating financial institutions.
Just an email or phone number, and boom, you’re in. It offers fast transactions, it is easy to use and you can make both deposits and withdrawals with it in your native currency. Speaking of, let’s see next how to use the solution for your deposits and withdrawals across actual Australian casinos so that you get how easy it is to use. This display name will actually be the only thing you’ll be sharing whenever you’re making a transaction with PayID. Press it and quickly go through the registration procedure by entering your mobile phone number and email, and creating your display name.
Deposits via PayID are usually instant – like, within seconds. This is the PayID you’ll use to send money from your banking app. Most casinos will give you a mobile number📱 or email address 📧. Once approved, you can start using your PayID immediately.
The ability to deposit and withdraw funds instantly is no longer just a « bonus » – it’s a non-negotiable. Because PayID works through banking apps, it’s seamless and easy to use on mobile. While more sites add PayID support regularly, you’ll still hit gambling operators that don’t offer it. Just don’t let the speed of the technology lure you into making snap decisions with your bankroll. It’s a « good problem » to have, sure, but it’s worth knowing before you start dreaming about that new car. You just link your mobile number or email in your banking app, and you’re good to go.
Cards remain a solid backup for those who have high limits and do not mind the potential cash advance fees. If privacy is your top concern, and you do not want gambling transactions appearing on your bank statement, crypto is the better path. PayID offers that sweet spot of speed and reliability for Aussies. Casinos verify identity before releasing funds. If you can wait three days for your funds to land, the traditional transfer is still reliable.
Usually its around 1.5% to 2.5% – on a $500 deposit, that’s $12.50 slugged off right at the start before your even think about spinning a reel. For pure deposit speed without setup hassle, PayID wins for the average user. Once you’ve got the network to confirm the transaction, things speed up fine, but getting there is the problem. When you look at the comparison, credit and debit cards like Visa and Mastercard are also instant for deposits, but they come with strings attached. Traditional bank transfers often involved waiting one to three business days for funds to clear.

Destination Brisbane Consortium (DBC) has announced the appointment of Justin Casey as Chief Operating Officer (COO) to lead strategy and Offering an unexpected interpretation of Mediterranean cuisine that celebrates both traditional and modern interpretation….
The Sky Deck extends 250 metres around the top of two towers. This involved the placement of a 175-tonne piece of steel 100 metres above ground level, between the two curved towers. An oblong sculpture by artist Lindy Lee is located at the George Street entrance. The project also includes a 1,500 seat-ballroom and a Sky Deck observation platform with 360 degree views. Fan Land is returning to Queen’s Wharf Brisbane for its second year—and it’s set
A Queensland government spokesperson says the deal is subject to government approval. The company has told investors it has made a deal with its Hong Kong partners, surrendering its share in Queens Wharf. Queen’s Wharf Brisbane will transform the CBD with four future luxury hotels, more than 50 new bars and restaurants, luxury retail, up to 2,000 residential apartments and more than 12 football fields of public space including stunning artworks and restored heritage buildings. The injection of the green spaces represents another significant milestone in the development in the delivery of the public space that a projected 1.4 million visitors to Queen’s Wharf each year will enjoy. « In 2023 we have seen so many elements of the development come to life- the iconic Sky deck, heritage buildings being restored, Miller Park upgraded, the Finger Wharves completed and 7.5 hectares of green spaces for everyone to enjoy, just to name a few. » The only integrated resort development currently being built in the world – with four tower structures filling the skyline, the iconic Sky Deck, a raft of new dining and retail options, restoration of heritage buildings plus thousands of plants and hundreds of trees to feature in a major landscaping project.
Casino operator Star is staring down another major financial threat, despite shareholders approving a $300 million rescue deal last week. Winners will be announced at a gala awards night at The Star Brisbane on October 1, with winning artworks and a shortlisted selection of works on display at Queen’s Wharf for the public to enjoy and purchase. As one of the largest developments in Queensland’s history, Queen’s Wharf Brisbane is designed to enhance connectivity, boost tourism, and energize the heart of the CBD seamlessly blending Brisbane’s rich past with its dynamic future. Queen’s Wharf Brisbane is more than a development—it’s a holistic contribution to the city’s future. The deal has left employees with questions about the future of their jobs in the precinct. Below the glistening new towers, 7.5 hectares of public space is turning green as the planting of 2,000 trees and more than 60,000 plants take hold awaiting the enjoyment of their first guests. The Star Entertainment Group (SEG) has announced that its proposed deal to offload its stake in the Brisbane Queen’s Wharf hotel and casino complex has collapsed, leaving the casino operator facing around $41 million in payments to investors.
Each apartment features modern kitchen, living, dining, and laundry spaces for unparalleled convenience. Guests seeking relaxation will enjoy our premium amenities at our Queen’s Wharf Apartments in Brisbane CBD. The Star Entertainment Group announced on 5 April 2016 share sale facilities that provided eligible small shareholders the opportunity to sell their shares without incurring any brokerage or handling costs. Alarming laws and legislation have been passed in other countries that can significantly impact people’s lives. Being able to co-lead a group of passionate and driven people is an absolute pleasure, and they are what fuelled me to keep going, even when it did get a little tough.
Shareholders last week voted to approve a $300 million rescue package, which gives US casino firm Bally’s a major stake in Star. Whether you’re visiting the city or live here and just need a reset, it’s luxury accommodation that makes you feel at ease — no fuss, just genuinely well done. It’s upscale without being overdone, no marble for the sake of it, just a well-resolved space that makes sense for how people actually live.
Last week, Star shareholders separately approved a $300 million rescue deal backed by US casino giant Bally’s and existing investor Bruce Mathieson. Now, the two firms have issued Star with a notice to terminate the deal. The Hong Kong investors poised to buy Star out of Brisbane’s Queen’s Wharf development have threatened to walk away from the deal that was first inked back in March.
I enjoy waking up to it through the floor-to-ceiling windows next to my bed. The apartment-style rooms are bright, modern and comfortable and every one of them has a view, either of the city, the river or the Botanic Gardens. Locals and visitors will be able to enjoy beautifully restored spaces in a variety of ways including cultural, retail, dining, hotel entertainment and tourist attraction spaces. Beautiful heritage buildings and places will be restored and repurposed, providing unique experiences and creating stories and memories for future generations. The consortium had required future equity payments of $212 million and a loan facility of $1.4 billion needed to be refinanced in December this year.

Online gamblers looking for a secure payment method can deposit money and withdraw winnings to their bank accounts at the best PayID casinos featured in this guide. To use PayID at the safest online casinos in Australia, you first need to register for a PayID with your bank account number. Check your casino’s e-wallet compatibility to ensure your chosen payment method is available for use. From classic 3-reel machines to feature-packed video slots with free spins, multipliers, and progressive jackpots, there’s no shortage of variety. Here are the most common types of promotions you’ll find at real money pokies sites.
Classic online pokies offer the most simplistic gaming experience with fewer reels, limited paylines, and minimal features. Pokies online in Australia are available in a wide variety of themes, layouts, mechanics, and reward opportunities. Instead, you’ll only see the sign-up bonus after creating an account. No-deposit bonuses are rare and usually have much higher wagering requirements.
NetEnt is one of the most innovative pokie developers, having created a variety of features that we all enjoy in the best real money online pokies. The list below features the most highly recommended titles to try, showcasing incredibly high payouts, numerous bonus features, and some of the largest progressive jackpots. This step ensures players get quality assistance and won’t have to wait hours to solve their problems. This list highlights top Australian casinos that accept PayID for deposits as low as $10, providing players with a safe and efficient way to play. While playing for real money, ensure the URL is legal (pragmaticplay.net, for example) and not a strange address such as ‘games-online-api.xyz.’
The volatility is high, and the RTP is listed at 96.21%, but it feels like a solid 96%. We update the list weekly, sometimes even more frequently if there’s a drastic change. We are a whole team working together to bring you updated picks of the best Australian online pokies based on their gameplay quality, payout potential, bonus rounds, and more. As with every payment method, there are benefits and drawbacks to weigh up before deciding that PayID is the ideal solution for you. But the value can fluctuate, and you’ll need a crypto wallet and exchange account, which adds setup time. I’ve tested all of these at different times, and each has its ups and downs depending on your priorities (speed, fees, anonymity, etc.).
We only recommend casino no deposit bonus sites that are safe, verified, and rewarding. A license ensures legal operation and adherence to fair gaming practices.. Each casino is reviewed across six key areas that determine safety, usability, and fairness. The bonus typically applies to pokies only – table games, jackpots, and live casino are often excluded.

best australian online slots · mai 18, 2026 à 10:10

Every site runs 2,000+ pokies with 96%+ returns and crypto cashouts under 30 minutes. These payment options provide lightning-fast withdrawals, lower transaction fees, and enhanced privacy. Yes, Australian players can legally play at high payout online casinos, provided the platforms operate offshore under reputable licences like Curacao or Malta. Yes, high payout casinos frequently cater to Australian players with exclusive bonuses, including free spins, cashback, and deposit match offers. The best payout casinos make this information easily accessible, highlighting their commitment to transparency. Payout percentages, or RTP (Return to Player), represent the percentage of total wagers a game returns to players over time. These platforms prioritise fairness, security, and player satisfaction, ensuring every session is both rewarding and enjoyable.
In most cases, any wins that you get through the respin will continue to add to the multipliers you’ve triggered during the initial spin. Sometimes, you’ll also enter a special « bonus round » that changes some elements of the game. When this happens, the slot triggers a bonus that gives you free spins. There are a couple of different ways in which online slots give you the ability to trigger bonuses. In addition to these, there are also bonuses that casinos hosting these games give you access to.
While its base 96.28% RTP is standard, it features an extreme 50,000x max win, far outpacing high-RTP titles like Book of 99. Its low-to-medium volatility makes it ideal for players seeking consistent, frequent wins rather than rare, massive jackpots. For the highest-RTP games, understanding the mechanics that produce that RTP is essential — the number alone doesn’t tell you how the game pays in practice. The best payout online pokies are those with the highest verified Return to Player (RTP) percentages – the mathematical measure of how much of the total wagered money a game returns to players over time.
This appeal stems from the optimal level of volatility/variance when playing casino games. This variance sub-category, commonly referred to as the Golden Zone, is the most coveted amongst enthusiasts throughout Australia. Therefore, a robust bankroll is required to weather the alternating winning and losing streaks. Whether you seek frequent small wins or the exhilaration of occasional massive payouts, learn the volatility spectrum to tailor your pokies experience according to your preferences and risk appetite. It paves the way for more effective bankroll management and optimized expenditure. For our Australian players to truly relish their experiences, it’s imperative to comprehend the game’s variance.
If privacy is your main concern, prepaid Neosurf or crypto (BTC/USDT) are options, but they complicate self‑exclusion because tracing funds is harder. Keep digital copies handy in a secure folder so you don’t get delayed when you need help, and after this I’ll compare tools so you can pick the fastest route. They’re fast to set — handy when you feel the urge to chase after a few bad spins — but they can be reversed, so they’re best as a first line of defence. Most offshore and some local platforms provide deposit limits, loss limits, session reminders and time‑outs that you can toggle in your account. Below I’ll explain the main options available to players across Australia and how they differ, so you know which one fits your situation. Always test a platform with a small deposit before committing your full bankroll. Millions of Australians play real money pokies at offshore casino sites every year without legal consequence.
Strategy element adds depth missing from most pokies – choosing which reels to hold actually impacts your returns, so there’s a small skill component. Low-medium volatility means relatively steady gameplay once you’re in Supermeter mode. Supermeter mode lets you gamble your winnings for enhanced prizes.
For those who want their pokie sessions to look as good as they play, this is a standout choice. Wild Tokyo brings a futuristic, neon-soaked aesthetic to the world of online pokies, creating a visually stunning platform that makes every gaming session feel like a trip to a high-tech metropolis. Whether you are looking for the latest megaways or classic three-reelers, SkyCrown delivers a sophisticated gaming atmosphere that feels both safe and incredibly rewarding.
The best choice usually depends on whether speed, privacy, bonus access, or banking familiarity matters most to the player. E-wallets such as Skrill and Neteller are also popular due to their fast processing times, while Visa and Mastercard remain widely accepted across many platforms even if withdrawals can take longer. The Australian Taxation Office commonly treats those returns as proceeds from a hobby or leisure activity rather than taxable income. For most casual Australian players, winnings from real-money online pokies are generally not taxed. Players who understand the difference between classic, video, and jackpot titles usually find it easier to choose games that suit their bankroll and preferred style.
The low-to-medium volatility ensures steady gameplay, making it a popular premium RTP pokies Australia option at Rooli. Available at HellSpin, this high-variance RTP slot offers massive win potential for dedicated RTP pokies players. The low variance makes it perfect for everyday players seeking premium RTP pokies Australia. Its distinctive Supermeter mode allows you to reinvest winnings for higher payout chances, making it a top choice for premium RTP pokies Australia. Choosing high RTP slots reduces the house edge, letting your sessions on RTP pokies last longer.

New online casino sign up bonus Australia · mai 18, 2026 à 12:04

As one of the top casino sites, Neospin offers over 5,800 fair games, including Australian online pokies, jackpots, and crypto-exclusive titles. Goldenbet doesn’t have the largest welcome offer, but it’s ideal for players chasing value. This top online casino in Australia is stacked with titles from 70+ game developers.
If you get the right combination, you’ll win. If the value of the cards in your hand is closest to nine, you’ll win. The casino rewards don’t end after you have claimed your welcome bonus. You will also face wagering requirements, and the maximum amount you can win might be capped.
Once you’ve signed up, you’ll want to take advantage of the 100% match bonus up to A$300 that you can get as a welcome bonus, along with the 100 free spins. You can expect a fantastic selection of payment options at Hellspin, with 16 different methods and a nice set of crypto coin methods on offer. Hellspin burst onto the scene in 2022 and has quickly become one of the new Australian online casinos to look out for. Your first deposit will be a 100% match bonus up to A$500 along with 100 free spins, and you’ll continue to earn similar match bonuses and free spins on top of each subsequent deposit. For fans of live casino games, you’ll have nearly 300 to choose from, with a ton of really nice roulette and blackjack variants in Ricky Casino’s repertoire. The site’s customer service is super quick to help with any cashier issues you run into.
We just might have liked to have seen more consistently quick payouts. On top of all the classic poker, blackjack, roulette, etc., there are a number of unique live titles such as Crazy Time and Monopoly Live, as well as live baccarat and dice games. The quickest ways to get paid out are via cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, but you can also get paid out rapidly through fiat options here, such as Neteller and Skrill.
The first thing you’re going to want to do is to check out our reviews on this list and look at the criteria by which we have assessed the Australian online casinos. If you’re playing on mobile, the available games may differ, so be sure to check out the terms and conditions of the site to find out what’s available. It’s also nice to see a strong selection of different baccarat titles, as it’s a table game that often gets overlooked on other online gambling sites. We are not talking about the UI design only – the platform should offer quick loading, understandable text, easy navigation, as well as mobile optimisation. This bonus-friendly category can be your best friend when playing with an active bonus, as it lists all games that you can use with your offer or to complete wagering requirements. When choosing a new casino, it’s crucial to consider the quality of customer support offered.
If bonus-focused value carries more weight in your shortlist than broad all-around balance, SkyCrown gives Australian casino offers a more visible role in the decision. For players who compare casino bonuses and free spins before anything else, SkyCrown Casino is the strongest specialist pick. Skip VegasNow if you want the simplest signup process, or if you care more about easy all-around usability than maximum game variety. If you want an online casino with more games, broader pokies coverage, and a richer live casino experience, VegasNow is the sharper entertainment-led shortlist pick. We recommend Joka for players who value usable bonuses, practical payments, solid game variety, and an easier overall experience over a narrow specialist focus. Together, they make the Australian online casino comparison more useful because each one gives players a clear reason to choose it, rather than making every casino feel interchangeable.
The following platforms are listed for reference only and have not been reviewed in detail on this page. Game libraries at new casinos can vary widely, even when the total number of titles looks impressive. A smaller bonus with fair terms may offer more real value than a larger bonus with restrictive conditions.
Live dealer games provide an immersive, real-time casino feel, enhancing the online gambling experience. High payout rates are a significant factor to consider when choosing an online casino. With a wide variety of titles, from classic slots to innovative video games and table games, players are sure to find something to enjoy. Other options include live dealer titles, RNG table games, instant games, crash games, and poker.

safe high roller in melbourne · mai 19, 2026 à 1:46

Nowadays there are some exclusive High Roller VIP table games, each with its own unique theme, designs and features. VIP casino sites are by far the best option for high rollers with bigger bankrolls. If you are a high roller and want the best from a VIP casino online, be sure to check out the sites where you can deposit more, win the biggest prizes, and withdraw greater amounts.
For a select group, however, the true excitement lies in the high-stakes arena, where the potential for substantial winnings aligns with their bold wagering strategies. Not only will you spy a starry ceiling, a stone fireplace, and timber columns in the 2,800-square-foot suite, but you’ll also get to appreciate panoramas of the city, mountains, marina and Fraser River from your own wraparound deck. But that probably has as much to do with the gold-speckled wallpaper as it does the Saint-Louis chandelier hanging above the bed. Looking around one of the impressive villas at Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star MGM Macau, you’d think that the polished space just finished serving as a set for a photo shoot for an architectural magazine. In those exclusive rooms, we found high rollers sitting under crystal chandeliers and joining in the thrilling high-stakes games.
If the signup and deposit processes are successful and seamless, the next step is to play casino games for real money. The foremost step is to make sure that the VIP casino operator is licensed and regulated by a reputable authority. All online casino reviews include the most important details players need to know before choosing VIP casinos. Many operators with loyalty and VIP schemes create invite-only events and tournaments which are meant for the most active players and high rollers.
Resorts World Sentosa captivates from the outset with its modern design and tropical island allure, a seamless fusion of sleek architecture and Sentosa’s natural beauty that sets the stage for a high-roller retreat. Spanning 120 acres with a casino floor of 15,000 square meters, RWS boasts over 2,400 slot machines and 500 table games, but it’s the exclusive VIP gaming lounges—like the Crockfords Tower lounges—that elevate it into a magnet for Asia’s wealthiest gamblers. This is a set of 11 Gram Clay Composite Poker Chips with Gold Foil Printed on them. High Roller Casino Chips are the most popular, highest-quality, and best-selling poker chip sets and home poker chip sets available!
Unlike most casino slots, high roller slots don’t have the usual limits attached to them so that players can set a budget more appropriate to their bankroll. Be prepared for the swings, however, and always have a bankroll that can handle a downswing. Below is a list of 25 best high roller casinos in Australia, handpicked for their luxury offerings, exclusive bonuses, and special treatments for big spenders. They also follow strict regulatory standards set by organizations such as the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) and the Asian Gaming and Entertainment Corporation (AGECORP).

Although not considered a standard app, this BC.Game PWA provides convenient mobile gameplay from anywhere. The casino’s collection of crash and instant win games includes Crash, Limbo, Plinko, HiLo, Mines, and Wheel. Blackjack Deluxe has the highest betting limit among the casino’s available options, letting you wager up to $500 per hand with a house edge lower than 1%. Still, you should exercise caution when playing at casinos with higher table limits and bet amounts, as it’s easy to go from thousands of dollars in the bankroll to zero. These include VIP preferred perks, games with high maximum bets, reliable customer support, and seamless payments. Join only licensed online gaming sites and manage your bankroll.
These premium slot games often incorporate progressive jackpots worth millions and exclusive bonus rounds accessible only at maximum bet levels. High RTP pokies designed for elite players feature return-to-player percentages exceeding 98%, significantly higher than standard machines. Private baccarat rooms often feature crystal chandeliers and premium leather seating to enhance the luxury experience. Baccarat VIP tables command significant attention among Australian high rollers, with minimum bets typically starting at AUD$1,000 per hand. Licensed venues implement real-time fraud monitoring systems that flag unusual activity while maintaining seamless gameplay for legitimate high-stakes transactions. Security measures include 256-bit SSL encryption technology protecting all financial data, compliance with Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC) regulations, and multi-factor authentication for account access.
Step into a high roller casino, and you’ll experience the lavish world of whale gamblers. Since these rooms cater to an elite clientele, maintaining decorum ensures a pleasant experience for everyone. While standard casino tables may cap bets at a few thousand pounds, VIP rooms allow wagers in the tens or even hundreds of thousands. Some casinos also offer direct membership to high-net-worth individuals or celebrities. Casinos monitor player activity, and those who wager substantial sums are often approached by hosts with invitations to join the VIP programme.

Australian players can access real money games at no verification casinos which do not require them to undergo lengthy identity verification procedures. The Australian online casino market operates with multiple platforms which serve different types of players. A Glitch Spin account provides users with access to modern pokies and video pokies and bonus games through its advanced gaming platform. Visit the site’s local section and you find bonus tiers tied to each initial deposit – one after another, up to four stages – not just limited to the first time. The platform Neospin provides pokie enthusiasts with access to more than 4000 pokies from top software developers.
The quality of a casino’s pokies library comes down to which software providers it partners with. The best Australian online casinos stock titles from multiple top developers rather than relying on a single supplier. Software quality varies significantly between providers, so the games library at your chosen site matters as much as the size of it.
The platform has become a leading Aussie online casino for players who enjoy long gaming sessions and access to thousands of best online pokies Australia real money titles. The platform has become a popular Aussie gambling site for players who want instant payouts, flexible banking methods, and easy access to best online pokies Australia titles. Players can choose any of the best online casinos in Australia for instant withdrawals based on their preferences and gaming style.
High rollers access exclusive bonuses, higher withdrawal limits, and personal account managers. This means immediate withdrawal access versus delayed or restricted cashback at slow casinos. Most casinos come with 35-60x wagering requirements, so choose those lower rollover conditions to withdraw winnings without long waiting periods. Fast withdrawal casinos offer standard bonus types with one key difference – you access winnings quicker after meeting wagering requirements. To withdraw your winnings from an instant withdrawal casino in Australia, you need to search for the cashier section on the casinos site and choose your payment method.
We checked for deposit and withdrawal speed using local platforms. The most important factor to consider in any casino platform is licensing. Our top pick for fast payouts is Spinjo, especially when you choose a quick withdrawal method, and your account is already verified.
Games & Software is weighted at 15% because players are still paying for the quality of the gambling experience itself. If you have any questions, feedback, or concerns, don’t hesitate to contact our team. By country, so always ensure you meet the legal gambling age and comply with your local regulations before playing. The best online casinos Australia support multiple payment methods to improve convenience and processing speed. Reliable casinos also support responsible gambling tools such as deposit limits, self-exclusion options, and account monitoring features. With SSL encryption, fair gaming policies, and responsible gambling tools, MIRAX Casino provides a secure and reliable experience for players searching for a modern Aussie online casino.
By sharing your login information, you are giving someone else access to your account, including your personal and financial information. Additionally, it’s important to avoid using the same password for multiple accounts, as this can increase the risk of a security breach. When creating a password, it is important to choose a password that is unique, complex, and difficult to guess.
You need to be able to rely on safe online casinos in Australia that give you real control over your funds and gambling time, not just disclaimers. Below is exactly what we measure, and why it matters when you’re looking for safe online casinos in Australia. When we talk about safe online casinos, we’re not just ticking boxes for licences and logos at the bottom of the page. You’re also given easy access to deposit limits and self-exclusion options from your account, making responsible gambling tools as streamlined as possible. Most real-money casinos available to Aussies operate offshore, and so safety comes down to licensing, encryption, payment handling, and responsible gambling tools, rather than bold marketing claims.
