Few countries, much less continents, have as many unique features as the land known as Australia. From the mystical Ayers Rock near Alice Springs to the Great Barrier Reef off the coast, the land and seascapes of this region hold amazing sightseeing opportunities.
This is a land where novelties come to life. While Aussies are known for their tall tales and wild imaginations, you simply can’t make this stuff up! Kangaroos, wallabies, platypus, koalas and the Tasmanian devil are just a handful of the unforgettable animals you can only see Down Under.
Take a deep dive into history to discover the remnants of penal colonies dating back to the 1800s and immerse yourself in the rich cultural heritage of its aboriginal people, the Maori.
Australia and its neighbouring island of New Zealand will astonish you with their uniqueness.
Sheep shearing, opal harvesting, camel treks, fjords and geothermals are just some of the diverse experiences that will pique your interest. Feasting on savoury farm to table delicacies while overlooking picturesque vineyards, trekking through the vast outback, and sailing on a sunset champagne cruise past the iconic Sydney Opera House will fill your sightseeing cup to its very brim.
Captivating scenery and diverse wonders make up the Australian a la carte menu.
Beach and coastal walks provide you with the most splendid scenery imaginable. Stop to toss back a drink and grab some grub at one of the many beach taverns and bistros as you soak up a day in paradise. Here, it’s still possible to find solitude in spades and still be within strolling distance of vibrant pubs offering the days catch, a pint of the local brew and a story to go with it.
Because of the long air flight, it’s little wonder most visitors from North America plan a stay of two weeks or longer. It’s certain you won’t be bored for a moment. Once you’ve tasted what Australia has to offer, you’ll be back for more. It’s just that simple.
