EXPLORE AUSTRALIA WITH FIRST CLASS HOLIDAYS
Sydney – Harbour, Beaches & Iconic Landmarks
Sydney is one of Australia's most recognisable cities and a highlight of many Australian holidays. Admire the world-famous Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, enjoy a harbour cruise or explore the historic Rocks district, with its cobbled streets, restaurants and fascinating history.
Visit the famous Bondi Beach, walk along the coastal paths, browse the shops and cafés or take a trip into the beautiful Blue Mountains beyond the city. Sydney is an ideal starting point for a first visit to Australia and can be combined with the Great Barrier Reef, the Outback, Melbourne or a longer east coast itinerary.
Melbourne & The Great Ocean Road
Melbourne is known for its arts, sporting events, food, coffee culture and lively neighbourhoods. Explore its laneways, markets and gardens, discover its museums and galleries or use the city as a base for exploring the surrounding region.
One of Australia's most spectacular drives is the Great Ocean Road, famous for its rugged coastline, surf beaches, dramatic cliffs and the magnificent rock formations known as the Twelve Apostles. The route can be enjoyed as part of an escorted tour or a self-drive holiday.
Nearby highlights include the Yarra Valley wine region, the scenic Dandenong Ranges and Phillip Island, where visitors may be able to see little penguins returning to shore.
The Great Barrier Reef & Tropical Queensland
The Great Barrier Reef is one of Australia's most celebrated natural wonders, with spectacular coral reefs and a remarkable variety of marine life. Explore the reef on a boat trip, enjoy snorkelling or diving, or take a scenic flight for a different perspective.
Cairns is a popular base for reef excursions and trips into the tropical rainforest, while Port Douglas offers a relaxed resort atmosphere, beautiful beaches and access to the Daintree Rainforest.
Other highlights include the scenic Kuranda railway, rainforest experiences, the Whitsunday Islands and the beautiful beaches of Queensland. This region is ideal for combining sightseeing and adventure with time to relax by the sea.
Uluru, Alice Springs & Australia's Red Centre
For a completely different side of Australia, head into the Red Centre and discover its dramatic desert landscapes, ancient cultural heritage and extraordinary natural formations.
Uluru, also known as Ayers Rock, is one of Australia's most iconic sights. Watching the changing colours of the rock at sunrise or sunset is a memorable experience. Nearby, Kata Tjuta's remarkable domed rock formations and the towering sandstone walls of Kings Canyon provide further opportunities to explore the Outback.
Alice Springs offers an introduction to life in Australia's interior, with opportunities to learn about local history, Aboriginal culture and the region's distinctive environment.
A Red Centre holiday can be included in an escorted tour or combined with Sydney, Melbourne, Cairns and other destinations as part of a tailor-made itinerary.
Perth & Western Australia
Western Australia offers wide-open spaces, beautiful beaches, distinctive wildlife and some of the country's most impressive coastal scenery. Perth is a relaxed, sunny city with parks, beaches, restaurants and access to the Swan Valley wine region.
Explore the wineries and coastal scenery of Margaret River, discover the dramatic landscapes of the Coral Coast or visit Rottnest Island, famous for its beautiful bays and quokkas.
Further north, the Kimberley region offers rugged gorges, remote wilderness and spectacular scenery. Western Australia is an excellent choice for travellers looking for something beyond the more familiar east coast highlights.
Adelaide, South Australia & Kangaroo Island
Adelaide is a welcoming city with a relaxed atmosphere, attractive parks, excellent restaurants and access to some of Australia's best-known wine regions. Explore the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and the Adelaide Hills, with opportunities for wine tasting and enjoying local food.
For wildlife and scenery, Kangaroo Island is a memorable addition to a South Australian holiday. Discover rugged coastlines, unusual rock formations, native animals and beautiful beaches.
This region can be explored on an escorted tour or incorporated into a self-drive or independent touring itinerary, allowing you to spend more time in the places that interest you most.
Darwin, Kakadu & The Northern Territory
The Northern Territory offers a fascinating combination of tropical landscapes, Aboriginal cultural heritage, wildlife and dramatic national parks.
Darwin is a lively tropical city with markets, waterfront restaurants and a distinctive local character. From here, you can explore Kakadu National Park, known for its wetlands, wildlife, ancient rock art and extraordinary landscapes.
Further adventures can include the Katherine Gorge region and journeys through the Top End. Wildlife cruises and guided experiences offer opportunities to discover the area's natural environment.
The Northern Territory is particularly well suited to travellers who want to experience Australia's wilderness and cultural heritage alongside its famous cities and coastlines.
Tasmania – Wildlife, Mountains & Scenic Touring
Tasmania is an excellent choice for travellers who enjoy dramatic scenery, outdoor adventures, wildlife and attractive historic towns. The island offers rugged coastlines, mountain landscapes, forests, beautiful beaches and a strong food and drink scene.
Explore Hobart, visit the historic settlement of Port Arthur, discover the scenery of Freycinet National Park and Wineglass Bay, or travel through the island's charming towns and countryside.
Tasmania can be enjoyed as a holiday in its own right or added to a longer Australia itinerary. Self-drive touring is a particularly appealing way to explore the island at your own pace.
Australian Rail Journeys & Iconic Experiences
Travelling by rail can be one of the most memorable ways to experience Australia's vast landscapes. Depending on your preferred itinerary, you could consider iconic long-distance journeys such as the Indian Pacific or The Ghan, which offer a very different perspective on the country's scale and scenery.
Other experiences to consider include Great Barrier Reef cruises, wildlife encounters, wine-tasting tours, scenic flights, rainforest railways and coastal journeys.
We can help you look at combining these experiences with hotel stays, flights, sightseeing and other destinations to create a holiday that suits your interests and available time.
Australia & New Zealand Holidays
If you have the time for a longer adventure, Australia can be combined with New Zealand. Discover Australia's famous cities and natural wonders before continuing to New Zealand for dramatic mountains, lakes, fjords and spectacular scenery.
Options range from escorted tours visiting highlights in both countries to tailor-made itineraries combining independent touring, scenic rail journeys, cruises and additional beach stays.
We can help you explore the possibilities and request a quotation for a multi-country holiday.
