Australia does everything a little bit differently: the bizarre wildlife, the alien landscapes and the unique Aboriginal culture. It’s both a country and a continent, where a population of 25 million is spread out across a landmass the size of Europe. From the rainforests of Queensland to the scorching deserts of the Outback, from the wineries of the Hunter Valley to the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Australia promises adventure on an epic scale.
Get your cultural fix in the cosmopolitan cities of Sydney and Melbourne, or head out into the wild to meet Australia’s most emblematic creatures, from koalas and kangaroos to quokkas and echidnas. Get to grips with Aboriginal folklore and visit sacred Uluru, or chill out in the Whitsundays and snorkel on the Great Barrier Reef. If you’re feeling extra adventurous then head for the remote Kimberley region in the far northwest, a land of bizarre rock formations and gushing waterfalls. Enjoy a liquid lunch in the wine regions of Hunter Valley and Barossa, or get away from it all on the ruggedly beautiful island of Tasmania. There is so much to see in Australia that one visit is never enough, so make use of that long flight home and start planning your return trip...
