“Oz trip with the tour operator was the best introduction to Australia! These short 9 days were filled with more than I could have imagined! I loved jet boating! We were soaked being whipped around in the harbour at around 80 mph. Our driver even stopped to give us facts about Sydney along our boat ride. I took a lot of pictures and videos during this ride and through the trip and was able to compile it to a short film to remember my experience. I also loved watching dolphins at Port Stephens and learning to sandboard! Having only seen dolphins in an aquarium before, it was crazy to see so many dolphins all around us, right up to our boat! I can go on and on about how much I enjoyed this trip! Everyone was so kind and even went out to celebrate my birthday one night! I'm so happy my introduction to Australia was filled with such great activities, food, and wonderful people! I wouldn't have it any another way!”
Unforgettable memories.

“Couldn't have had a better first time in Australia! My group leader Will could not have been any better! This was one of my first trips and I can't think of a better trip I could have chosen to jump start my travels and gain new friends! Will's sense of humour and wild dance moves really made our trip lots of fun! Thank you!”

Travel tips for Australia Explorer Tours
Pick an itinerary to align with your passions. From winery tours to nature escapades and wildflower-spotting stints, our Australia explorer tours cater to every interest.
Don’t try to see everything in one trip. Australia is almost as big as the contiguous United States, so it’s best to focus on one region at a time.
Make sure to check the weather. Australia can get stiflingly hot and bone-chillingly cold. The rule of thumb is to head north in winter and south in summer.
Let your tour operator know about any special requirements in advance. Most of our Australia explorer tours can cater to various requests.
