Australia Tour Packages

There are many ways to describe a country as captivating as Australia but we wonder if any description will do justice to its unbelievable beauty. Considered to be one of the best travel destinations in the world, it welcomes all kinds of travellers and offers them an experience of a lifetime. Recognised for its awe-inspiring landscapes, diverse flora and fauna and urban cities – it’s sometimes difficult for travellers to choose the best places to see in Australia.

 

Striking the perfect balance between bustling cities and stunning, quaint towns, Australia offers the best of both worlds. You could begin with the metropolitans of  Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne or choose an adventurous holiday in Darwin and the world-famous Great Barrier Reef.

While the iconic Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, Blue Mountains National Park and Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park should definitely be a part of all Australia tour packages, it’s also recommended that travellers explore the lesser-known parts of the country. Home to diverse landscapes including tropical islands, snow-capped mountains, rainforests and reefs – Australia is also a huge draw for adventure seekers. In fact, if you are looking for an action-packed vacation, Australia is counted among the best places to visit in the world.

 

Local Cuisine in Australia

The local cuisine in Australia primarily comprises of meat, seafood and local, fresh produce for vegetarians. It might come as a surprise to some travellers that Australian restaurants serve a variety of world cuisines without emphasis on their local delicacies. However, most local joints will give you a taste of some of their unique dishes including vegemite – which is quite popular for locals but an acquired taste for foreigners.

Australia Highlights

Australia tour packages are incomplete without a visit to the country’s most popular city, Sydney.

Kata Tjuta is primarily made up of 36 rocks which are spread over an area of 20km.

If your budget allows, we also recommend a helicopter ride around the area for mesmerising views of the red rocks.

“An interesting introduction to Australia later, we headed northeast towards Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef. What an out of the world experience it was to swim with schools of fishes in the ocean. Memory created for life. Even better was the Hot air balloon ride over the Atherton tablelands the following day. Charmer of a Cairns.”

Australia Weather and Best Time to Visit

Australia is a huge country with different geographical set-ups so the best time to visit will depend on the places you’d like to explore and most importantly, your budget.

In fact, the summer season is ideal for all outdoorsy activities you might want to include in Australia tour packages. 

 

June to August is typically winter in Australia and it’s a great time to try skiing and snowboarding. Winter is also when travellers prefer exploring the Great Barrier Reef and the Simpson Desert. May to October is considered the dry season and it’s a lovely time to visit the northern region of Australia, especially Darwin. At the same time, travellers also plan their trip during the spring months of September to November which is an ideal time to head out for trekking and hiking.
