Explore Australia’s iconic cities, white-sand beaches and tranquil hinterland.
From the eclectic laneways of Melbourne to the golden shores of Sydney, an Australia holiday offers an incredible mix of culture, coastlines and city experiences. Discover hidden cafés, street art and boutique shopping, then swap city streets for coastal walks, harbour views and laidback beach days.
Across the country, each city brings something unique. Sip cocktails at rooftop bars in Brisbane, explore global flavours at Adelaide Central Market or unwind in nature at Kings Park in Perth, one of the world’s largest inner‑city parks. Whether you’re planning a short city break or a longer holiday to Australia, you’ll find experiences to suit every travel style.
For sun‑seekers, Queensland holidays deliver some of Australia’s most sought‑after escapes. From the Great Barrier Reef and the Whitsundays to tropical islands and lush rainforests, it’s a region made for relaxing and exploring. Head north for tropical beauty and natural wonders or travel south to buzzing coastal hubs like the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast, known for surf beaches, family‑friendly attractions and year‑round sunshine.
Beyond the east coast, there’s even more to discover. Travel to Australia isn’t complete without exploring the diversity of South Australia, Western Australia, Tasmania and the Northern Territory. Think world‑class wine regions, rugged coastlines, unique wildlife and unforgettable Outback landscapes.
Whether you’re planning a two‑week itinerary or an extended Australian road trip, Australia offers endless opportunities to explore, unwind and experience something new - all in one trip.

Why I love travel:
There is so many different cultures to experience and history that goes way beyond New Zealand's few hundred years of course - stunning natural beauty can be enjoyed all over the world.
My travel tips:
- If you are there - do it. Travel is all about experiences that create wonderful memories, so don't regret not doing something because you were concerned about the price - the bank won't mind and you will talk about it for years to come.
- Pack light as you can always find a laundromat - though I do need to take me own advice!
- Find the most comfortable walking shoes you can find and break them in before you go. You will probably do lots of walking in some countries .... old European cobbled streets can take a toll.
- Be prepared to and learn how to tip so you don't get thought of as a bad tourist - most of the world tips for service and yet it's so foreign to us, but very important to do so.
My top 5 favourite destinations:
- Pacific Islands - a close tropical beach escape. The rest of the world dreams of these exotic locations and they are just there for us.
- Canada - amazing wilderness experiences on a grand scale.
- Italy - organised chaos! I just love the expressive personalities of the people, as well the fabulous food and drink and amazing history.
- Vietnam - a bit of everything from great beaches to amazing food and stunning rural scenery and different minority cultures.
- Mediterranean Cruise - why not take your hotel with you - wake up each day with a new culture and experience to be had - this is the place to cruise!
What's in my suitcase:
- Too much - I must do better!
- One universal adaptor and a 4 plug New Zealand multi box
