Explore Australia’s beautiful landscape, vibrant cities and natural landmarks on this adventure that shows off what the country has to offer. Start in Melbourne and enjoying the bustling capital of Victoria. Explore the trendy restaurants along the Southbank and wander the laneways to discover quirky cafes and shops. You can’t visit Melbourne without seeing the Great Ocean Road so tick this off your bucket list as we have included it in this itinerary. Next take a flight to Sydney and spend time discovering the sights and attractions of this iconic city. Head to The Rocks, marvel at the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge or catch the ferry from Circular Quay to Manly. After sampling the delights of Sydney head up to the Whitsundays and spend the rest of your trip relaxing on Hamilton Island. This is the ideal place from which to explore the Great Barrier Reef and surrounding islands or simply just relax at the resort. You can tailor this entire itinerary to suit you. Please speak to your Travel Expert for options.
You will have two full days to explore Melbourne and its surroundings so head out to explore the lane ways stopping off at speciality shops and quirky cafes, or you might want to go to the Yarra Valley and sample wine and local produce for the afternoon. We have included a day trip out to explore the Great Ocean Road so whether you choose to do this on day two or three on this group tour you’ll see the iconic Twelve Apostles and famous London Bridge whilst enjoying the stunning views on the rugged coastline.
