The bar chart illustrates how many people from three countries traveled to Australia between 1995 and 2005, whereas the line graph gives information about the number of individuals traveling by staying at resorts and backpacking.

Regarding Australia’s travellers, the number of individuals from the UK started with 800,000 in 1995, after which it surged to 1,500,000 in 2005. While the figure for tourists from the US accounted for 500,000 people in 1995 and then tripled in 2005, Japanese began at 1,500,000 which made up the most visitors in Australia in 1995 but decreased to two-thirds of the previous number.
