From the lush tropical rainforest to the burnt red desert, from the fantastic cosmopolitan cities to small traditional outback towns, combine some of the above to make the perfect Australia holiday. Australia offers the traveller a hospitable welcome, friendly people and a wealth of travel options at any time of the year.

In the past Australia has been considered to be a once in a lifetime destination, however we are seeing more and more people taking a two and three week holidays. Its quite possible to do a 2/3 centre holiday, for example: arriving in Sydney for 3 or 4 nights taking in the city sights and surrounding areas then moving up to Queensland where you can take advantage of one of the Reef’s mini cruises sailing in luxury round the Whitsunday’s, then moving on for a short stay at one of the many beach hotels, for example Port Douglas, OR if cruising isn’t for you maybe take in the Red Centre, visiting the breathtaking Ayers Rock.

Eco-Tourism is growing in popularity within Australia, with more and more people becoming aware of their carbon footprint. There is a wider range of Eco Friendly hotels available, for example: a new luxury eco wilderness lodge called Southern Ocean Lodge, located on the south west coast of Kangaroo Island, the luxurious suites create the ultimate fusion between nature and luxury. The gourmet food & wine is all locally sourced, and of course offers you the opportunity to discover some of Australia’s unique amazing wildlife. This is just one of my new favourites, however there are many more to choose from.
I have a great passion for Australia and believe the variety on offer means it has something for everyone. Don’t delay going down under for any longer, try the experience for yourself.
