Freedom Days
Throughout your Australia and New Zealand combination holiday, we want you to enjoy a good mix of visits to must-see landmarks and time to experience your destinations in a way that suits you. You might like to try an adventurous activity like climbing Sydney Harbour Bridge or experience the thrill of Shotover Jet in Queenstown.

Thanks to our Freedom Days, you’ll have the chance to tailor your experiences to enjoy the things that interest you the most.
New Zealand Freedom Days
Australia Freedom Days
The majority of the optional excursions will be booked locally with your Tour Manager, but there are some that must be pre-booked before you depart the UK due to limited space and we suggest these are pre- booked at least 3 months prior to departure and no later than 30 days prior.

Stopover Freedom Days
If you’ve taken advantage of one of our two-night stopovers on your journey home from Australia and New Zealand, you may want to make the most of your short stay in these exciting destinations by taking an optional excursion or two.
After all, who could visit Singapore without a trip to the world-famous and historic Raffles Hotel for afternoon tea or a Singapore Sling? Or if you’re in Bangkok, the Grand Palace with its beautiful Temple of the Emerald Buddha is a must-see. Explore Hong Kong and learn about its fascinating history. In Bali why not take a sunset cruise, or discover the islands beautiful mountainous interior. And if Dubai is where you’ll spend the last two nights of your holiday, why not enjoy one of them feasting Bedouin-style on a Desert Safari?
