From sweeping plains to leaping marsupials, dazzling barrier reefs to bewitching rainforests, ancient red monoliths to the Sydney Opera House - Australia is a land shaped by the world’s oldest cultures, home to totally unique experiences.

There is no place more fitting to start your Australian journey than at its aboriginal and spiritual heart, Uluru (or Ayres Rock). Join an aboriginal elder for a tour of the 20,000-year-old rock art at Kakadu National Park before setting off on your adventure through the stunning outback.

With their sparkling waterfront bars and trendy shopping districts: Perth, Brisbane, Melbourne and Adelaide, all offer different flavours - but none quite match spirited Sydney. With its magnificent opera house, buzzing neighbourhoods, world-class dining and stunning harbour beaches, there is always a party going on somewhere.

For a taste of the great outdoors, take a seaplane over to Whitsunday Islands, home to the spectacular Great Barrier Reef. Swim with sharks and explore the most dazzling corals in the world before retreating to the porcelain sands of Lizard Island for a slice of Aussie paradise. Equally as alluring is the island state of Tasmania where lush green valleys, wild rainforest and an abundance of national parks offer endless outdoor thrills from kayaking to mountain biking and bushwalking.

Nowhere does adventure quite like Australia.
