About This Tour

Vacation Overview
Discover Australia from the Great Barrier Reef to the Outback. In Cairns, enjoy a spectacular half-day trip to the Great Barrier Reef with time to explore on your own. Visit a local zoo to see crocodiles, kangaroos, and koalas, and have dinner at the home of a local Aussie family. Then, travel to the Outback, where the stunning landscape is sure to inspire you. Enjoy guided sightseeing in Ayers Rock and Alice Springs, then explore the Outback on your own. View the vast “Red Centre” from a helicopter—and for a unique desert experience, ride a camel! Last stop is Sydney, the largest city in Australia. After the guided sightseeing tour you will have plenty of time to pursue independent activities. Take surfing lessons at one of the local beaches, dine at the Sydney Sky Tower for 360-degree views of the city, and visit the Blue Mountains.
