Travel didgeridoos: PVC and slide
Plastic didgeridoos are light, easy to clean and very hard to break, which makes them the ones we suggest for travel.
| Didgeridoo | Length | Weight | Made from | Price (AUD) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Didjeribone Slide Didgeridoo mk III | 95cm closed, 170cm fully extended | 0.6kg with bag | Australian-made PVC | $220 |
| TOCA Curved Tribal Sun | 126cm | 0.4kg | PVC | $120 |
| TOCA Orange Swirl | 128cm | 0.4kg | PVC | $120 |
The Didjeribone is a slide didgeridoo: one tube slides inside the other, so it plays in keys from low B to high G and packs down short. It ships with a calico travel bag.
The two TOCA didgeridoos are fixed length, in the keys of D# and C#. Their product pages describe them as a great didgeridoo to start on, for a gift, or for the travelling didgeridoo player, and note that they are unlikely to break or cause damage if dropped.
The shortest eucalyptus didgeridoos
Every eucalyptus didgeridoo we sell is a one-off, so the shortest ones change as they sell. On 14 November 2026 the shortest in the shop were 111cm to 121cm long, weighed 1.4kg to 2.6kg and cost $200 to $300.
To see what is in stock now, browse natural finish didgeridoos and Peter Santo didgeridoos. Each listing gives the length and weight.
For comparison, most of the eucalyptus didgeridoos we stock are between 130cm and 155cm long.
Shorter didgeridoos play higher notes, so the higher keys are where to look for a short one: F, F#, G and G#.
A short, high didgeridoo is not the easiest one to learn on. The best keys to learn on are C to E, and the very deep and the very high ones are harder.
Light but full length: agave didgeridoos
If weight matters more to you than length, look at agave didgeridoos. They are made from the flower stalk of the agave plant and are very light, so they are easy to carry.
The four in stock weigh from 1kg to 1.45kg. They are full length, 154cm to 167cm, and cost $700 to $1,500.
Which didgeridoo for a child?
We do not sell a didgeridoo made only for children, and our product pages do not give age ranges.
The advice in our Didgeridoo Buyers Guide is the same for a child as for any beginner: skip the extremes and go for something in the middle. Once you can make the drone, the same technique works on a didgeridoo of any size.
Here is what some customers who bought for children have told us.
“My 7 year old Grandson loves playing the Travel Didge and is extremely successful with it.”
Kenneth S., United States, May 2018“I just wanted to send a quick email to thank you for the didgeridoo I recently brought my son for his 9th birthday. Delivery was super quick. He was so excited to receive it as that was all he wanted and has been asking for almost 12 months for one. He unwrapped the parcel and was playing within minutes.”
Nerine, Australia, Mar 2011“We had a number of questions before purchasing as this didgeridoo was for our child. Every question was answered with patience, care and warmth, and the service was excellent in all areas.”
Deanna, Australia, Feb 2015“Bought a starter didgeridoo and have learned alot from Sanshi's lessons would recommend to anyone thinking of buying one get it here easy to follow Instructions even my 5 year old can make a sound on it from listening to Sanshi thanks guys love my didgeridoo”

These are customers' own words about the didgeridoos they bought. They are not a recommendation for a particular age.

Do you sell mini or toy didgeridoos?
No. Everything on this page is an instrument made for playing, not a souvenir. The shortest is the Didjeribone, 95cm when closed.
Bags and flying with a didgeridoo
We recommend keeping and transporting your didgeridoo in a didgeridoo bag. The Small Quilt Didgeridoo Bag ($80) suits a didgeridoo up to 115cm long with a bell up to 10cm across. See all didgeridoo bags.
