Just how incredible are Australia and New Zealand, you ask? So great that you still couldn’t see it for all it's worth on this 38-day adventure. Starting in Sydney, you’ll fly to the famed Red Centre and have a chance to witness Uluru at sunrise. Then travel south down the East Coast, filled with beautiful beach, kangaroos, wallabies and all the crazy Australian wildlife you could hope to see. After three weeks, fly to New Zealand’s North Island first, then down to the South Island for even more fun Down Under.

Absolute banger of a time! I've always wanted to go to Australia for many years now and going with Contiki, especially with on the North Queensland to Uluru, was totally worth it! I couldn't speak for the sailing version of the trip, but the land stay in Airlie beach was really a nice bit. I would recommend going in the drier seasons because it rained and was quite windy during our stay in Queensland but nonetheless, a really exciting opportunity for everyone. If it's your first time going to Australia like it was for me, this is absolutely the trip to go, as you'll be seeing the natural highlights of the continent!
