Top 10 things to do in Australia
Climb Sydney Harbour Bridge
Climbing the Harbour Bridge in Sydney is one of the most exciting things you will ever do. Reaching the top is a real sense of achievement. It is not a short walk but the payback is a stunning panoramic view like nothing else. You can choose when you prefer to do your climb, with early morning to late at night walks available.. Call us to book you Sydney Harbour Bridge climb.
Drive the Great Ocean Road
Driving the Great Ocean Road is one of the world’s top rated road trips. A gorgeous coastline running between Melbourne and Adelaide with the highway as close as you can get to the sea. In our opinion it is a must do part of any holiday to Australia.. Call us for a tailor made quote.
Swim with Dolphins in South Australia
You cannot beat the extraordinary feeling of swimming and snorkelling amongst a pod of wild Dolphins. The best area for this is South Australia near Adelaide. A unique life-time opportunity and a real blast for children and adults alike. To arrange your Swim with Dolphins please contact us.
Stay on Kangaroo Island
Kangaroo Island is a wonderful wildlife experience and one of the few places in the Australia you can get up close and personal with its various inhabitants. It is also oddly, one of the few places most visitors will get see Kangaroos in the wild. And there is Southern Ocean Lodge here. Not cheap but my oh my what a place to stay.
Dive and Snorkel the Great Barrier Reef
It is the longest Reef in the world, very accessible and certainly an iconic place in Australia that everyone wants to visit. And quite rightly so. Crystal waters teaming with aquatic life of all shapes and sizes. We have day trips and longer cruise tours, from 3 days to a week. We can even book you a helicopter tour over the Reef. Let us know what you would like to do.
Stay in the Coral Bay region of Western Australia
Largely unknown and unseen by UK travelers, this is one of Australia's greatest hidden secrets. Gorgeous beaches with no rival. Home to Ningaloo Reef, the largest fringing reef in the world, no boats needed here, just step out from the beach and Ningaloo Reef is right there. This is also one of the very few places in the world you can dive /snorkel with Whale Sharks. Visit this fabulous area as part of one of our WA self drive tours.
See Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon
Australia's Red Centre region of the outback is world famous and a very special area for the indigenous Aboriginal people. There is no other place on earth like Uluru and to travel to Australia and not see the 3 iconic sights of Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon will be your biggest regret. For a real authentic outback experience hire a 4WD vehicle from Alice Springs and drive The Mereenie Loop. Contact us to book this wonderful trip, an escorted tour or just a couple of nights near Uluru.
Stay the night in The Blue Mountains
Very close to Sydney and yet a squillion miles from any bustling city life. This huge wilderness area is part of the Great Dividing range area and is stunning and not to be missed. For those with little time we have day trips to visit this area of outstanding natural beauty but if you can, stay a night or two in the region itself. You will be delighted you did. Call us to reserve you a room in one of our handpicked resorts in the Blue Mountains.
See one of Australia’s many famous wine regions
There are an abundance of wineries, many world famous labels and even more small, hidden away wine Estates. Try and visit a good handful. Hire a car and as part of any Australian self drive holiday, however long or short, be sure to visit and sample a white or red. We can arrange for you to stay in any number of stunning lodges and hotels, where tasting can become a bottle (or two!). The most popular regions are MacLaren Vale and Barossa in South Australia, the Hunter Valley in NSW and Margaret River region in Western Australia.
Take a walking tour of The Bay of Fires in Tasmania
On the edge of Mt. William National Park lies the glorious wilderness coastline, the Bay of Fires offering a Tasmanian trekking tour with dramatic landscape, ecology and wildlife. Guided and hosted by well-informed, local Tasmanian guides, small groups can explore both the beach environment and the rich diversity of the nearby woodlands. Accommodation at the Bay of Fires Lodge is incredible. Call us to book your Bay of Fires walk.
