Me and my sister traveled to Australia togrther. We had been talking about going to Australia for years, and when we finally found this tour, it felt like the perfect fit. It had all the major places we wanted to see Sydney, Cairns, the Great Barrier Reef. Sydney was amazing. We loved walking around Circular Quay, seeing the Opera House and taking the ferry to Manly Beach. The harbor views are something else. What we really liked was that the group was small. It made everything easier and more relaxed. We ended up making a few friends from Canada and we still keep in touch on WhatsApp. The guide was friendly and gave us just the right amount of information without overloading us. The hotels were comfortable and in good locations. For the price, I think it was really worth it. You get so much in one trip and don’t have to worry about the logistics.

Saw so much in short time. Guide was friendly but sometimes rushed us to next spot. Loved Uluru sunset, Great Barrier Reef snorkeling was wow. Would go again but expect tight schedule.
