Map outline: Natural Earth

The cities of the south

Begin in Sydney, then continue to Melbourne. Coastal walks, galleries, neighborhood dining, and optional countryside excursions create two distinct introductions to Australian life.

Southern flavors, desert horizons

Spend time in Adelaide and its surrounding wine regions before flying to the Red Centre. Let Uluru’s changing light and guided cultural encounters mark a new chapter.

A tropical conclusion

Finish in Port Douglas with time for both the reef and rainforest. Leave the final days spacious, balancing memorable outings with a comfortable retreat.
