Welcome to Australia!
You can choose any convenient flight to get here. The driver will meet you with the name board at Sydney airport and take you to the hotel.
Upon arrival you'll have time to rest and prepare for our ultimate Australian adventure.
We'll start our journey with the famous Sydney Opera House. You have definitely seen this outstanding building on plenty of photographs and postcards. We are going to take a look inside this architectural masterpiece and learn the history of its construction and existence.
After that we'll walk through the green alleys of Royal Botanic Garden and eclectic streets of Sydney downtown with skyscrapers and old historical buildings standing right next to each other. Finally, we'll reach the well-known Harbour bridge. Those who are brave enough can climb up the top of the bridge with safety equipment (for an additional fee).
In the evening we'll get back to the hotel.
For those whose tour started on 30th of December, today there will be a New Year's celebration — Australian style, right in the middle of hot summer!
After breakfast you'll meet the guide in the lobby and hit the road. While on the way, you'll be able to ask the guide any questions concerning the journey.
First, we'll stop at the wildlife park. Haven't you ever dreamt of hugging a kangaroo? This is the real opportunity not only to take a picture with a kangaroo and hug it, but also to take a peek in its pouch. You'll also see koalas and other adorable inhabitants of the Australian environment.
Next, we'll drive to the Blue Mountains National Park that is known for its breathtaking views. You'll have enough time to walk around, take pictures and have a ride on the Scenic Railway and in a cable cabin with an amazing lookout of park landscapes.
At the end of the day we'll take a flight to Cairns located in the heart of Australian tropical forest.
Today we are going to explore the tropical rainforest of Rainforestation Nature Park and its exceptionally diverse flora and fauna.
To get to the park, we'll hop on a retro train that travels among picturesque sceneries with waterfalls, gorges, and aqueducts. Feels like we got back in time to the 19th century when this railway was originally constructed.
During the walk through tropical paradise we'll hear about the wildlife of the park and culture of local tribes.
On the way back we'll use a cable car to enjoy the panoramic view of Kuranda village and Rainforestation Nature Park.
Did you know that the Great Barrier Reef can be seen from space? This is the world's biggest structure made of corals. Most of them are hidden underwater, but some reefs form small uninhabited islands. Today we are going to have a close look at this wonder of nature.
We'll head east on a high speed catamaran and reach the first reef in an hour and a half. Here, in the warm waters of the Coral Sea, we'll enjoy snorkeling and diving (diving equipment is available at extra cost).
Then we'll head on to a second reef equipped with a helicopter pad. You'll have an opportunity to take a look at azure vast sea area from the air (at an additional cost).
After such a long and busy day you can spend the evening relaxing in the pool of our comfortable hotel.
Today we'll have to get up early to catch a flight to Tasmania island. It is known as the only place on Earth where the Tasmanian devil is found in the wild.
We'll land in the charming city of Hobart, where we'll have an exciting gastronomical trip to a local market to try traditional Australian cuisine.
After that we'll take a stroll around the city with a guide to see the beautiful embankment, old colonial buildings and learn the history of Tasmania colonization.
Today we are going to enjoy the unique nature of Tasmania in one of the oldest national parks of the island — Mount Field.
We'll wander through a primeval forest surrounded by the blurry silhouettes of mountain peaks and visit cascade Russel waterfall, which is one of the favorite places of the visitors. Walk to the waterfall takes only about 15 minutes.
For those who are not afraid of a longer walk, we recommend visiting magnificent glacial lakes (about 10 km each way).
In the evening we'll get back to the hotel.
After breakfast we'll set out for Freycinet National Park, which is in the Top-3 most beautiful parks in Tasmania. The nature here is harsh, and the views are truly breathtaking. We'll see steep rocky cliffs, mysterious caves and high waves crashing against the shore.
If we are lucky enough, we'll meet some of the park's wild inhabitants — sugar gliders, wombats, Australian cormorants and even whales.
In the last evening in Tasmania you'll have time to walk around Hobart and rest.
In the morning we will fly back to the Australian continent. Right from the Melbourne airport we'll go on a memorable tour throughout the city. We'll visit the embankment, blooming gardens and historic districts tinged with nostalgia. We'll also see the well-known Cooks' cottage that has a very interesting history. It was built in England in the 18th century, and later was transferred to Australia brick by brick.
You'll spend the night in a design hotel in the historic part of the city.
Today you'll have the most fascinating experience traveling along the south-east coast of Australia. Construction of the Great Ocean Road was a grand project of the Australian government and a major historical event. A lot of soldiers who got back from the World War I took part in the construction. The Road is considered one of the most picturesque roads in the world — it goes along the coastline through eucalyptus forest.
Besides multiple viewpoints we'll stop at the koala forest and the Twelve Apostles rocks and be back in Melbourne by the evening.
Prepare your taste buds — we are going to have a gourmet route today! Australia is one of the leading countries in winemaking, and we can't miss the chance. We'll visit a few famous wineries and taste various sorts of wine. You are going to feel like real sommeliers!
We'll be back in Melbourne by the evening.
After breakfast you'll be transferred to Melbourne airport to get on a plane home.
Those who chose to extend their vacation for two more days will have a flight to the Red Center of Australia.
After breakfast in Melbourne hotel you'll have a flight to the desert heart of the continent — the Red Center. To this day, the dreamscapes of this land with majestic rocks and canyons are home for lots of aboriginal tribes.
Right from the airport we'll make our way to Mount Olga and take a short hike around the Valley of the Winds. The highlight of the day we'll be the colorful sunset among the giant red rocks.
We'll spend the night in the lodge under the shiniest stars you've ever seen.
We'll get up early to watch the sunrise near the famous rock of Uluru, which turns bright red in the morning sunlight. Uluru, also known as Ayers Rock, is a sacred place for aborigines, who still perform their rituals here.
After an easy stroll in the area we'll head to the Uluru airport and then home. Now you can be sure that you've seen as much of Australia as you could — from the tropical forests to the deserted landscapes of Red Center.
