Tour Highlight
A morning at leisure until it’s time to make our way to Adelaide Parklands Rail Terminal in time for a magnificent overland journey to Alice Springs, in the heart of Australia’s outback. Renowned as one of the world’s most iconic train journeys, The Ghan was named after the Afghan cameleers who once traversed this route. Our twin accommodation is in Gold Service, airconditioned, private sleepers, all with upper and lower bunk beds, en-suite shower, wash basin and toilet. Single travellers will stay in single cabins, which are configured as a lounge chair, converting into a bed at night, with shared bathroom facilities at the end of each carriage. Whilst on board, all meals are included as are a wide selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Marvel at the ever changing landscape as we journey north. This evening, following dinner, sleep to the rhythm of the rails.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner PLUS selected onboard drinks included
Awake this morning to notice the contrast between the fiery red earth and the cobalt blue skies. Enjoy an off train experience as The Ghan makes a short stop in Marla – in the middle of the Australian outback. In just 25 hours aboard The Ghan we will have covered 1,555 kilometres and passed golden wheatfields, vast sheep stations, rugged mountain ranges, salt lakes and the fierce Simpson Desert. Upon arrival into Alice Springs we will board our coach and enjoy a sightseeing tour of the outback’s largest town. Visits include the Royal Flying Doctor Service, the School of the Air, and the Old Telegraph Station, now a museum and the site of the old springs from which Alice gets its name. Later in the afternoon we arrive at the four-star Crowne Plaza Lasserters Hotel. Later, you may wish to join a fun evening at our optional Bush BBQ.
Breakfast
Our day is free to relax or explore the outback. You may wish to take a trip to the Western MacDonnell Ranges; an excellent opportunity to get a real picture of life in the outback. The full day excursion takes us through the wondrous and picturesque scenery of Simpson’s Gap and the towering granite walls of Standley Chasm.
Breakfast
Tour Highlight
Leaving Alice Springs, we head west through amazing outback landscapes as we travel along the scenic Stuart and Lasseter Highways and make our way to Uluru, the icon of Australia’s outback and the world’s largest monolith. Rising from the flat surrounding scrubland, Uluru is a site of deep cultural significance to the Aboriginal communities of the Northern Territory. We begin our red centre adventure enjoying a glass of sparkling wine whilst witnessing the changing colours over Uluru as the sun begins to set. It’s truly a photographer’s delight. Alternatively, you may wish to join an optional Sounds of Silence dinner. Our next two nights is at the four-star Desert Gardens Hotel
Breakfast
For early risers, a dawn visit to the rock has been arranged. Seeing Uluru at sunrise, from a different position and a different light, offers a totally new perspective on the changing colours and character of the rock. We return to the hotel for breakfast. Later, we discover more about Uluru’s historical and cultural importance, with a tour of the rock followed with a visit to the intriguing Kata Tjuṯa, (The Olgas), an impressive series of rounded ochre-coloured sandstone domes. Afterwards, we leave for the airport in time for our flight to Cairns. Upon arrival we shall transfer to the perfectly located Hilton Hotel, which will be our home for the next three nights.
Breakfast
Tour Highlight
The Great Barrier Reef is an amazing array of coral reef and marine wildlife just waiting to be explored. In fact, a holiday to Australia would not be complete without viewing this must-see World Heritage site. Boarding our high speed catamaran in Cairns, we travel out to our platform, situated on the Outer Reef. Activities commence as soon as we arrive. If you’re a non-swimmer, or just don’t fancy getting wet then there are options to view the reef from a glass bottom boat, or semi-submersible. Or for an additional cost, you can view the reef from above on a scenic helicopter flight. For anyone happy to get into the water, there’s snorkelling in the sheltered coral lagoon, or join a marine biologist on a guided snorkel safari. For the more adventurous, further optional activities include a Seawalker Helmet dive, an introductory scuba dive, or if qualified a certified scuba dive.
In between activities, included is a tropical fresh buffet lunch and after four hours at the reef, we return to Cairns sharing stories of our day’s adventures
Breakfast and lunch
Although today has been left free you may wish to take an optional trip to the rainforest village of Kuranda. We depart Cairns for Kuranda on the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway. As we glide over the rainforest canopy take in the breath-taking views of the rainforest canopy and stunning coast line. Enjoy free time in Kuranda village to explore the markets and independent shops, before taking our coach to Rainforest Station, where we have the opportunity to learn about Australia’s aboriginal culture. Our aboriginal guides will share stories in the Yarning Circle, before entertaining us with a traditional dance performance. We finish with the opportunity to try boomerang and spear throwing. We arrive at Kuranda Scenic Railway station in time to board our train for one of the most unique rail journeys in Australia. As we journey back to Cairns, see how the track clings to the rockface along a narrow coastal strip and encountering no fewer than 40 bridges and 15 tunnels.
Breakfast
Another Freedom Day to enjoy the delights of Cairns and tropical northern Queensland. Cairns is perfect for strolling and there are also numerous art galleries and museums to explore. Alternatively, there is the option to take a hot air balloon ride over the Atherton Tablelands. If you prefer to venture further afield, a day trip to the World Heritage-listed Daintree Rainforest, the oldest rainforest in the world, is a fascinating experience. The tour gives a wonderful insight into the rainforest’s unique flora and fauna, including an informative nature walk and a cruise spotting saltwater crocodiles.
Breakfast
This morning we make our way to Cairns Airport in time for our flight to Sydney. Upon arrival, we head to the four-star Mantra 2 Bond Street. Sydney is a city that takes full advantage of its natural setting – its sparkling harbour is host to the world-famous Sydney Harbour Bridge and the spectacular Sydney Opera House. Sydney’s suburbs are blessed with lush native bushland and pristine sandy beaches. Add to this the excellent restaurants and cafés, endless shopping opportunities and a vibrant culture and it’s very easy to understand why Sydney is one of the world’s favourite cities.
Breakfast
Tour Highlight
This morning’s sightseeing tour begins with a drive through some of Sydney’s most fashionable inner-city suburbs en route to Bondi Beach. Travel by Double Bay and Rushcutters Bay as we make our way back to the city centre. We journey via Hyde Park and Parliament House to Mrs Macquarie’s Chair in the Royal Botanical Gardens, where we stop for the classic photo opportunity of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. We complete our tour in the best possible way – enjoying a luncheon cruise around Sydney’s beautiful harbour. The views of the Opera House, the Harbour Bridge and the many dream homes nestled along the edge of the water are truly amazing. The afternoon has been left free to spend as we please.
Breakfast and lunch
Today has been left free, but for those that so desire, we shall be taking an optional trip to the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains. The Blue Mountains are a perfect example of native Australian bushland, with gum trees, majestic peaks and deep gorges stretching as far as the eye can see. Experience the panoramas from a series of lookouts, including Echo Point – the prime position to view the Three Sisters rock formation. The excursion also visits the pretty village of Leura, famous for their annual garden festivals and playing host to many of the region’s local artists.
